Well if anybody wants to pay the brunt of the expense and shack up w/ me and drewpy, Im definatly down for that.

so long as i can park my bike under somebody's awning again i could care less, its just a bed to sleep in... for like 5 hours a night.

alright. I talked to kat last night and she said you were down, and that she's good. talked to DP, he said he was down ... although he was in the middle of a furious game of beer pong, so i'll have to double check with him after work.

calling marsha right now.

been tryin to get ahold of her all weekend, they arent pickin the damn phone up down there.

i got quoted from marsha, a cabin as 109/pair, +25 per person a night. not sure bout the lodge.

heres what I messaged a buddy about the trip, too lazy to do more than copy and paste...these are the rpices with tax included...

Depending on what you set up, a cabin or lodge room, max 4 people is $182.85 per night per person...

An ecconomy room (that shares a bathroom with other rooms) is $86.25 per night...

If you get 2 other people to share a room with you and X person and get a cabin, for 4 nights it breaks down to $182.85 total per person, so for a couple like you guys its 365.70 for the 4 night 5 day trip...plus gas and food...

Last year we bought groceries and did sandwhiches and stuff, cuz while the lodge serves dinner, the hours are crazy with us all out riding all the time and the closest town is 30+ minutes away...we literally are in the tail of the dragon at this place!

i must have been on drugs, i know I suck at math but daaayyyuuummm looks like i screwed that one up...

if you have more than the 2 people it adds $25 per night and tax is outrageous at 15%...so someone else do the exact math if ya want it...whew...

I'm in the same boat. I will have two track days right before I get there, and another one after the gap at a new track that I REALLY can't wait to ride.... I don't want to wreck. I'll ride hard/spiritedly, drag a couple knees.... but I don't intend on riding like a fool.

I still need one of you guys to let me crash in your room thursday night. I am more than willing to wait for ya and ride up there from knoxville thursday. I will pm my # to ya.
I may end up staying in knoxville wednesday night if I can make it that far in one day... I'm not sure though I will have to play it by year.

As nts and I make our way down we'll all keep in touch and meet up thursday morning, if not wednesday night.

I'm getting ridiculously psyched for this trip.... now let's just hope I don't go out and fucking crash 1st lap of my first TD on monday :lol:

Ok, I'm not making it down for the Rally this year. Its 11 hours one way for me, and the plans never really got sorted out in time. I mentioned it to my fiance last week, and she got pissed because I always plan vacations for myself, but not for the both of us. Well whoopti fuckin do! I always go to the gap every freakin year at the same time every year for the past 5 or 6 years.
Gas is so freakin redicoulous right now anyway....so I'm coming down in late september or early october....I will make a trip to the gap this year....dammit!

I'm driving, for many many reasons.

If I had a long ass time to do all this, I might ride the whole thing, take all back roads the whole way... but just to ride a shitload of highway to try to get places is a waste of tires and wear on the bike.

Also with all the track days I need to bring a lot of supplies and tools and stuff just in case.

No my tail fairing comes off easy, why did you have to take it off? My pass. pegs come off with out removing if that's why. My race tail is a lot harder to get on/off.

I don't know how many miles on the street, I broke mine in on a track. So 2 or 3 laps because it was cold.

idk. you have to wiggle and wiggle the shit out of mine, to near breaking point, to get it off. fortunatly i only have to pull it up and back about 5 inches just to put the pegs on.

By tuned, you mean just the suspension or do you mean getting the bike Dyno tuned?


I can't remember if Wheeler has a dyno or not, but if you mean dyno tuning you would probably want that done closer to home, the different air pressure, altitude, conditions and temp at Wheelers is going to be different than in FL.

Yeah he's got a dyno, and I may have him run it for me, but primarily I want him to take a look at an issue I have been having and readjust the suspension. I was thrilled with what he did last year and since this year I am running considerably lighter, I want to see what else he can do. Methinks the issue is just the butterfly valve in the exhaust per some convos with buddies, but Wheeler mentioned he can hook it up and do some other stuff for me.

I dont care to see what she dynoes at, its bone stock, I just want to get the small issues resolved that he can see on the computer...and I know he can do that for a fraction of what I will pay here, plus he wont have my bike for a long period of time...
