Thanks Vinnie. I need a firm schedule as I want to book the hotel today. Too bad you're not the "Chef of the Future" at the McCagh bash. I'll probably be traveling with your group (Long Island Tour???) with the '65 hot rod.

Hi, the LI road tour will be joining the national road tour on Saturday and going in to Hampton Va on Sunday July 21st with the entire group. It is going to be a great trip!

Hi Scott,

Probably the LI RT but if you would you give me info on the RT's in my region that I can choose from, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.

The "tail of the dragon" referenced by Terry is a VERY winding section of US 129 on the NC-TN line. And when we in the mountains of Western North Carolina say "very winding," believe us.

Part of the Southeast tour drove it on the way to San Antonio in 2006. Check it out at http://tailofthedragon.com/dragon.html

Oh, now I remember that road. But I haven't been on it since 1970, when an old girl friend convinced me it was a short-cut to Asheville and her home town of Tryon, NC. My old '64 Dodge Polara 500 wasn't able to fully appreciate it, I suspect they haven't widened it either, but I would like to take the ZR1 on it. Even though the Smokies are no Rockies, the area does have some terrain.

Actually, if this Tail of the Dragon were near the end of the California tour, you could start at Santa Monica Pier, take Cal.2 across the San Gabriels on the Angeles Crest segment of 2 to Palmdale. Then make your way through Death Valley and 'Vegas to my favorite twisty road, the Coronado Trail in Arizona

And then across northern New Mexico on US 64, the PCA's #1 sports car road:

Before crossing the flat, long great plains area to make your way to Tail of the Dragon. That would be a great tour.

Re: 2013 NCRS California Road Tour to Hampton, VA

We are pleased to announce eight separate Road Tours for 2013. This will be the 31st National RT. Kansas, New England, Florida, Texas, Denver, North Carolina, Ontario and Metro Long Island will be our starting locations. The next issue of the Driveline will have a complete outline of each RT. Remember that your Corvette was made to be driven.

I remember a rustic motel in Cumberland some years back. We could call it second from the last night out.
You be the cook?

The Cumberland Motel. I stay there every time I go to Doc's. Last time I stayed there it was $38.00 a night and Barb apologized for having to go up on the price

Re: 2013 NCRS California Road Tour to Hampton, VA

Sad that a Cali tour is not in the list, so much beautiful country between Cali and Texas or Colo./Kansas.

Re: 2013 NCRS California Road Tour to Hampton, VA

Michael, There is lots of time for you to plan a RT from Cali. If you cannot travel all the way to Hampton then hand your group over to another RT leader.
