Default Deals gap is open, 7/9/10

Please pass this on to all forums you are apart of that may not know yet.

It could be closed til July/August. The crew contracted to clean it up is busy cleaning up I-40 between Asheville and Knoxville. They are also not allowed to use explosives on this one due to the flood control dams in that area.

DGMR may be closed the entire time as well.

Is this related to the rock slide that some ass hat ran into with his Lincoln? I didn't think that was on the 11 mile stretch - was there another slide?

this is on that rock slide. It makes it impassable for Tennessee Emergency Services to provide services to the 11 miles of the dragon. Tennessee does not want to pay North Carolina to service the road, so they have a 24/7 guard at the state line and at the rock slide.

Ouch, I know a few people planning an April trip from the Raleigh area, thanks for the heads up!

Yep. I posted about it on a couple sites as well.

The cool part is that there are SOOOOOOO many other excellent roads in the area, so it does not really matter too much! This might keep the non riding squids away for a while!

They are letting TVA and Alcoa people through that have to man the dams. I have a TVA badge, CLOSED COURSE TIME. Lane crossing for the win.
