Roll call: Chicago caravan to the TOD

It looks like some details regarding the trip to the Tail of the Dragon have been firmed up. The dates that we are planning to drive the TOD are May 5th and 6th which means most of us will be taking the 4th and 7th off for the drive down and drive back. As RandallNeighbour mentioned in another thread we need to book our hotel/motel rooms now as we will be competing with other groups. As of right now myself and a couple other 986 forum members are booked at the www.twowheelinn.com. The rooms are going fast so book them ASAP or do some searching for another place to stay (please post if you find another place with open rooms).

Please post if you want to join the caravan coming from the Chicago area.

I would imagine that as we get closer to the actual event RandallNeighbour will be posting details on meeting places and other items.

Sammy, I will caravan with you. I bet NickCats will too.

1) How far away is Knoxville from TOD?
2) Are wives going?
3) It would be great if someone could design a TOD Porsche T-shirt for purchase!

NickCats has his hotel booked for he and Mrs. NickCats. I am also booked for myself and Ms. CouldpossiblybeMrsSammysomeday...

I don't know how far Knoxville is from the TOD.

TOD Porsche T-shirt... hmm... maybe we can con our local creative photoshop guru DJ into coming up with something?

I am guessing about +8 hours. They are about 2 hours away from Knoxville.

Knoxville is about 550 miles from Chicago.

I did a quick mapquest from Wheaton, IL to Robbinsville, NC and it comes up about 10.5 hours.
