    Ok, I tried to copy the event poster but was unsuccessful. Anyone who can do this please post it.

    Greetings:

    This is a ready made event for Ferrariest and Car folks in Charlotte and the surrounding area. Picture this, a great Mountain drive, exhibition runs up the mountain for you, full out race up the mountain by the participants in all kinds of cool cars, car show, and lunch at The Lodge at Eagles Nest! And as a special, Roland Linder will be driving his F40 on several exhibition runs on Saturday!

    Kevin, get this thing going. We need you to lead the event!

    Here are the directions I was given:

    77 to 85 South to 321 North towards Boone. Then State HWY 105 to Tyne Castle HWY 184 to Banner Elk. This road will end, take a left on 194 2.7 miles to Banner Elk. You will see the stone walls of the entrance here.

    Who's up for a ride? Time, place to meet?

    Dave, glad to hear that you'll be there as well. Trevor and I worked corners at last year's inaugural event and had a great time, we'll be doing the same again this year. The facility is very nice for those who haven't been and they usually have a couple local bands playing on Saturday night, the whole event is very festive. Dave, shoot me a call when you're up there, we're staying at the Best Western and we'll be at Eagle's Nest all day during Saturday and Sunday.

    Are you bringing the TDI or the yellow thing?

    Well I was going to go but forgot who the owner was until the wife reminded me and there's no way I am giving him a penny of my money. Oh well!
