Dragon Run August 13th

[rs4pro3]

it runs perfect, Just put a chip , and my Euro H1's in Wednesday. I need to replaced a few rubber hoses and boots here and there but it runs perfect. 25.8 mpg city driving. It has an oil leak somewhere that dosn't show up on the ground, I can smell burning oil up front. But I think it's the crank seal leaking some.

Guys, I may not be able to make it. My mom just got a call that my Grandfather and his wife were in a Head on collision. He is in critcal condition and his wife may be dead(they said there were fatalities). He are heading to Kingsport right away this afternoon. So I may or may not be around this weekend.

Very sorry to hear that Ely. Can everyone that is going post on here so we know who to watch out for? I am planning on going for sure. If anyone wants to meet in Knoxville let me know.

Trying to get some local participation.

Hi guys, thanks for the kind words. We are up in Kinsport now, A 50 some year old lady driving a van crossed over the double yellow off of 66 and hit my Grandfathers Subaru headon, My grandfather, his wife of 2.5 years, her son, and her 2 grand children were in the car. His wife and her son Died(I'm assuming at the scene, they won't tell us anything thanks to Hippa crap), The 2 grand children are ok, one has a broken Femur, and the other broke her jaw and collar bone. My grandfather is doing as best as he can, he was in poor health before hand, and has MANY injuries from the wreck. Here is the short list
Broken C2(No spinal cord or brain damage)
Broken Collar bone
3-4 broken ribs
Compund break of his right elbow
Fractured wrist
Broken Femur
Both legs broken in the same spot
Broken right ankle.
As of last night, he was aware of us being here and would squeze our hands and respond. He had a late night surgery and got out around 1 a.m. so we've yet to see him today. The doctor fixed his life threating injuries and said he'll have a very long recovery ahead of him.

Sorry to hear about that Ely. Best of wishes from all of us! I WILL be attending tomorrow. There will be also a M Roadster and another 325 coming along with us here from chattanooga. So we are meeting at the gas station on the N.C. side of the dragon correct?
