It's great to see that there is such an interest in this. I have the link to the facebook event below. It's open to the public. If your interested say your going so we have a count of who all is going. Tail of the Dragon is at 17555 Tapoco Rd, Robbinsville, NC 28771 and their open from 10am- 5pm. They have a bunch off different places to stay at depending on your preference. I'm more than likely looking at camping for $10 a night. All camp sites are sports car friendly by the way. So, other than the fuel you'll spend tog et there and the food, if your camping it's only $10. They have photographers their that take pictures at different points on the trail. I'm trying to get most of the local Chattanooga 86 to be there.

You can look at lodging here:

Another fun road to drive in that area is the Cherohala Skyway. It has a bunch of good twisties though not as many as the tail however it does have much better scenery.

I'll try to make it. Keep me posted about meeting spot or if you want to all drive up from Chattanooga.

Everyone that is going make sure you watch out for Motorcycles. You need to be extra careful of them in that area. They are all over the place there.

You should also post it in the Chattanooga, Nashville & Atlanta group pages to get some local drivers.

I live 20 minutes from the dragon and if anyone needs anything I work at the Discount Tire down the street.
