I have been on four of the first ten. None of the second group except perhaps Twisted Sisters really appeal to me because I am more interested in looking at my next apex than I am in looking at the scenery. For that reason I tend to drive a lot on some of the great driving roads in SE Ohio. A group of about a dozen FT86 owners will be heading down there on Oct 19th for a day of driving fun.

I have heard talk of an annual meet for the BRZ/FR-S being organized for the Tail of the Dragon. Many car groups already do that including s2000, Mini, Mazda and Mr2 Spyder among others. The BRZ/FR-S is perfectly suited to the Dragon because it is more like driving a 11 mile autox than it is a road. A small lightweight car is the car to have on that road. Unfortunately, traffic can be heavy, motorcycles and a bicyclist are everywhere, the speed limit has been lowered to 30MPH and said speed limit is heavily enforced during the day time. For that reason, many drivers wait until evening and late night hours to attack it. Every sports car enthusiast should drive the Dragon at least once.
