For those attendees wanting to participate in a "tourist" run, the attached two (2) routes that cover the NC & Northern GA mountains are very entertaining. The upside - lots of scenic venues (Hiwassee Dam, a couple of waterfalls, Moonshiner 28 from Highlands, NC back to Fontana Lodge). The routes have lots of sections that include sweepers, twisties, and other interesting features. The downside - ToD is not included in either route.

But these are both enjoyable driving and used by many car enthusiasts from nearby locales. I've adjusted the driving speeds to reflect "tourist"class style so you'll see the estimated time to complete. Add in several stops for site seeing & one for lunch, and it would be a full day.

And you can always drive a ToD run on Friday or Sunday. Another recommendation is to tackle ToD (up & back) on Saturday evening. It's a different experience after sunset!
