DGRR 2011 - Do's and Don'ts
I know most of you who attend DGRR don't need reminders about what not to do and do at DGRR.. But just in case, let me remind some of you
![]() DO's -Be courteous and friendly towards those who attend DGRR and the locals. -Be respectful of other people's property/car -Follow all local, state, and federal laws. DGRR Does NOT condone speeding or reckless driving. DGRR event does not including driving on US129 or any other roads. Any driving on the public road is at your own risk and you are responsible for any tickets or accidents you cause. If you have a driver's license, than you should know the rules. -Be responsible for your own actions. This includes, know the limit on your car, yourself as a driver, and understand the consequences of your action. -Be on time! Don'ts -No driving under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or any medication that might hinder your driving. Remember, there are parents of little kids, on the same road as you. - No vandalizing of anyone's property/car. Anyone who commit this horrendous crime towards another person's car, I will make sure you will never attend DGRR and local law enforcement officers will be called to make sure you will be arrested and be responsible for your action. -NO drifting and NO burnouts!!! -Do NOT cross the Double YELLOW lines!!! -Don't act like a child!! This is not some child/teenage hangout event. Most people come to DGRR for many many different reasons... either to drive around the mountain roads or to just relax and hang out with some car friends. Either case, don't be loud and act like a child. If I left anything out, please feel free to add to the list.

I can say out of all the years I've attended the DGRR the only time I've ever dealt with disrespectful childishness was in 2008? Thankfully it had nothing to do with rotary owners, it was the pompous Porsche Owners club

I avoid doing it because I would hate for their natural selection to destroy my bumper.

Not the group I run with that is for sure, a few of them own RX7's myself included. Furthermore, one snooty Porsche owner used to be a big shot with Mazdaspeed back in the 70's and 80's when they were running GTU. He owns a brake company now and drives a beautiful 1969 911. They even let me hang uot with them in a slow little RX7 since selling my 911. ![]() |

Even though I've posted these before a few years ago, they are worth posting again.
I was taking some picture at DGRR'09 on one of the corners on the dragon, and I saw some ridiculous actions on the subject of crossing the lines. For shame. ![]() For a bike rider this person should not have needed to cross the lines entirely. ![]() And for the most ridiculous line cross action I've ever seen, goes to the white 350Z vert. ![]() This isn't Europe people, this is the USA, we drive on the right side of the road.
