Dan, Sorry, just wanted to freshen up the prior info, 1 more time.
Everyone, this will be the ONLY Dragon thread, that will be kept updated, So look Here 1st,
OK?
This is a USA Rally/Meet, Not a Regional meet. This is the only current correct spot for it, at this time, I believe.
Dan, see you at the Dragon, Oct 2008, sorry you couldn't make this 1st one.
Bill

 

Sign me up for "I'll be there" on the weekend.. I will try to make it on Friday 3:00 at the dam.. although I may meetup with you at the overlook. I have class until the afternoon and may not be able to make it to the dam by 3pm.

btw. sig below = me at the gap

 

Jasper,
Do you have a Crossfire & a bike? What is the info on your Crossfire, so I can list it?
See you there!
Bill (SF)

 

I don't quite understand your logic....but okay. Using that same logic would exclude the roadsters and SRTs. Posting it in the regional section does not make it just for that region, it's just where it is taking place i.e. the annual Chrysler Nationals in Carlisle PA is posted to the Northeast region. I'm able to see it, get the information I need to participate, and make plans from there. I'm not trying to make waves, just think get-togethers fit much better in the regional sections where they occur.

And thanks, yes, I definitely plan to attend next year......I have tried every way in the world to make it this year but it just isn't going to work. You folks have a great time and take lots of pics.

 

Dan, I see your point, but I didn't want to lose some people, for this Very 1st National Crossfire Meet, that wouldn't look in the other Regions. We have some coming from TX, NJ, MD, maybe even Canada, & one was Scratched from St Louis. Maybe Next year we will get some XF's from CO, MN, OK, KS, ME & even California, wouldn't that be nice.
Roadsters & SRTs are not excluded from the "Coupe Section", this is Not a Roadster or SRT Specific Event, it is for All Crossfires.
Next year, we will put it, wherever, everyone wants it.
Again see you next year, wish you could have made this one!

SilverFox, I was just wondering if anybody has notified KillBoy.com about us coming next weekend?
We're not listed on their calendar.
Are we going to try and slip in unnoticed?

 

Yay! I have a very small dent on my trunk lid...maybe he can smooth that out quickly and cheaply for me while we all chat, LOL! Yeah right, I'm sure we'll all be driving. Good thought though...he is coming?
Tery

 

OK I watched the video in horror! The key is smoothness and this driver was anything but smooth and took some real high risk chances during his drive...I hope no one will be doing this next weekend...not that I'm against performance driving (Bondurant School 1976 Alumni) but this video shows some people for what they are. Glad I didn't buy that rental XF unit, LOL!
Please let's all be safe, not drive above our individual skill levels and for Pete's sake let's not kill anyone this first trip out! Hopefully the locals will want us back again next year.
Terry

 

"Killboy" is always there no matter what the day. He takes pictures of anything that moves on the road. Afterwords, get on his website and pic out your picture.

 

Yes, Killboy will be there.
Received this email yesterday:

Hey Jeff,


Yeah we should be out there. Y'all have fun and be safe!

Best Regards,
Darryl Cannon

Yes Jeff, killboy does a great action photo job on the Dragon, his Dragon photos have been featured in several of the leading national car mags.

Everyone who comes to the Dragon will be able to order several photos of their XF in Action, from killboy.com, like the pics below.

BTW The "New" SilverFox was featured (See below Photos) on his 7-25-07 Blog as: "Dead Sexy Chrysler" (Killboy's blog,The Dragon 7-25-07) (That's what he called the Fox on 7-22) http://killboy.blogspot.com/

What do they charge for the photos?

 

$5.00 each plus shipping on Disk, see the site for other Choices, including Posters.
(Maybe we should have him shoot our Sat AM Meeting at the Dam, I'll Ask him to be there if possible).

Bill

 

It's 5:00 P.M. and I just made reservations at the Fontana Lodge for next Friday and Saturday, and they still have rooms left. (In case anybody is interested).
I hope to be there for the 3:00 P.M. hook up on Friday.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for good weather, and I hope the dealer doesn't screw up anything on my car next Wed. when I get my schedule B done.

 

That's Great (there must have been a cancellation this PM), Penny at Fontana Lodge said "no more Sat nite avail, only Friday & Sun Avail" when I talked to her at 2PM today when I made reservations for myself for Friday & Saturday.
Also I went to the Dragon today, (1 hr, 5 min & 59 miles from my house). The "Top-Down" Weather was Fantastic, Mid 60's, Sunny, Peak Color & light traffic for a Sat at 3PM, also checked out the Fontana Village/Lodge & Fontana Dam (1.5 miles away) BTW the Village was built just for the construction workers of the Dam. It's all a Lovely Area, roads perfect, Fall color Great(Late this yr), air fresh, mountain roads invigorating! What a Beautiful area to Live & have a Crossfire.

The Weather forecast so far is Super:
Fri Nov 09Partly Cloudy 64°/32° 10%
Sat Nov 10Mostly Sunny 66°/42° 0%
Sun Nov 11Mostly Cloudy 66°/46° 20%

You can't get better than that for 11/10 & Late Peak Color Also, WOW!

I'll be at the Dragon for the 3PM Hook-up on Friday @ the Fontana Village Grill Resturant Parking lot. (There were 50 Mini-coopers in it this afternoon).

See y'all at the Dragon in 5 days!
Bill (SF)

 

I hope the weather stays as predicted for top down driving.

Sounds like an action packed weekend, I can't wait!!!

 

Bill, Great Job on the schedule. Looks like there are plenty of planned
activities. Though my wife and I (and the Crossfire, of course) will be
arriving at the dam around 10 - 10:30 am, as we drive up from Atlanta,
and won't be able to participate in Friday's event, we are definitely
looking forward to meeting everyone at the dam, and taking a Crossfire
Cruise through the Dragon with you guys. We may, or may not do lunch,
as we plan to drive back to Atlanta during the afternoon. Nothing against
you guys, but I really prefer to sleep in my own bed.

See you on Saturday. Just look for the coupe with the "Coyote6" license
plate!
