Well we are doing it again this year!!!! This will be the 4th year doing the dragon run, Dates for the run will be November 20th thru 23rd 2020. We will drive on the 21st and the 22nd. I have an excellent route mapped out this year for the Saturday drive. There will also be an awesome event on Saturday night as long as the weather permits, details on it will be revealed on Saturday after our drive! Sunday will be a driving the dragon day and a few other roads around. I know some folks will need to head home Sunday so the main big drive will be on Saturday! We will also have some items to raffle off on Saturday and T-shirts will be available. I recommend the Historic Tapaco lodge to stay at. I will see if I can get us some discounted rooms. I will post as soon as I get confirmation on a discount there. As we get closer to the date I will continue to add more info to this post. I will start a list of drivers and cars for all who would like to join. please pm me if you want to attend and I will add you to the list.

We only have 10 rooms/cabins currently available. Some of the cabins can sleep 2-4 adults. Some may want to split a cabin and stay together, etc. Our group is listed under “M3Post” please book your room as soon as possible if you are coming as the rooms will fill quickly! If you can’t get a room at Tapoco there is also Fontana village and also some local hotels around.

I'll be bringing a friend with an F80 M3 and another with a 2017 GTR

I'll probably not be in my M3. I have a deposit on it and it'll be gone, but I'll be in something. lol

It’s all ages, anywhere from early 20’s to late 60’s average age I guess would be 30’s? Always a great group of M-people! Never a dull moment! Lol
And we all drive the piss out of our cars when we are there!!
