DGRR 2011-Best and Worst Experiences

willnordacgreen1211 · 05-02-2011, 11:19 AM

I had a great time the whole trip! Driving the gap was great, and being at th lodge and the cabin hanging out with new friends was great!..... the bad.. well me and a small group decided to go up to the gap and make a few passes on saturday. well I lead our pack and we got .4 miles on it and me and the driver behind me both got ticked for going 76 in a 30! the other driver got 74... so those are pretty hefty tickets and somewhat ruined the gap for that afternoon.. we then decided to go drive the skyway not knowing how long it really was. on the way we hooked up with another group going to the skyway. we got to the top and were worn out of driving by then. somone in the group thought that it was quicker to keep going on the skyway because to looped around back towards the cabin. well we finnished the whole thing and stopped at a gas station in A town that had no power. by then we saw that the quickest way back was to go back on the entire skyway. so we drove back and got there just in time for the banquete. at the banquete I won a bunch of really cool prizes and that made up for the whole day i think!
All in all I had a blast and cant wait for next year!

SSSSOOOOOOOCCCCCCCCCCCCIIIIIIIIIIAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The quickest way back was actually not down Skyway. We really were half way at that gas station. We were really fortunate that we went on though...

Right as we passed the Advance Auto (or was it Autozone) on 411 we got a call that Tray's multi-colored FD wore through the chassis harness on the dragon when someone had it out for a run. Fortunately we were on our way with cell reception at an auto parts store lol. A few crimps and cuts later and we brought it on home.
