9th Annual Spring Tail of the Dragon GTG - March 31 - April 4, 2016
Re: 9th Annual Spring Tail of the Dragon GTG - March 31 - April 4, 2016
Im still tired from the weekend. Slept 8 hours last night, still dragging. What a weekend.
And due to the petulant and childlike Nick (who grabbed my arm and forcefully drug me out of the lodge lobby Thursday night like a spoiled little girl) and got me to drive him to the liquor store in Marysville - I now have driven the Dragon in the dark at speed.
THEN, he drove back at SPEED and made me car sick for the second time in my life.
I'm spoiled - now I know why the Gens run 2-3 times a day in the dark - I get it now.

So we need to find their night run schedule.. and line up our own group.. and depart behind them..

The local public broadcasting station had a piece on the Dragon with some interesting locals interviewed.

Andy great video
I found the source of the white smoke when I got home and got the XFIRE up in the air it is a oil leak from the electrical connection on the right froward corner of the Transmission I have ordered new O rings and going to RR it in about an hour from now. then clean the residue of the pipes...

NEXT TIME, we do Hellbender hill - UP HILL, the way it ought to be done! (This was from a few years ago...)
(This is part of PIzza's sunset cruise as well - where we all go at our own pace. I'm still frustrated that things got all fouled up and the cruise didn't happen.
THIS FALL, Im not in charge and will concentrate on my runs!)

well finally had the time to do a complete detail on the xf and added the two dragon decal to the left and right side behind both doors. Looks good except the door ding but I'll see the dent man next week.

Got these in the mail today, from the Spring Dragon. A gift from Imgard and Marvin Christian - a wonderful couple from Ohio who (along with others but as the second car) I led thru the Dragon this Spring. Iv'e sent a thank you card - just another memory to savor and friend made at Fontana Lodge.
