    2500 mile in 7 days including 1000 miles on back roads. We just completed the 2016 Mountain Mille - Vintage Rally running roads like Tail of the Dragon, Rattler and Blue Ridge Parkway, traveling though North Carolina, Tennessee, South Carolina, and Georgia. 50 cars, great resorts, and nice people. This is what the 328 was made for. Check one off the Bucket List.

    No rain at all. Weather was perfect, sunny, 70 - 84 degrees. Leaves were turning, but not on the road. No amount of planning replaces good luck..Sometimes, things just work out...

    The roads were like running an autocross, but for 1 hour at a clip.... i.e. Tail of the Dragon is 318 curves in 11 miles; The Rattler is 234 curves from Lake Junaluska to Hot Springs and another 30 from Hot Springs down to the Bobarosa Saloon. And we did this type of driving for 4 days straight. Glad I did a full brake job before we started.
