Yeah Jin, you and I were having a lot of fun till your brakes faded.
I'll agree that one needs better brake pads for the Dragon. I put on some Hawk HPS pads before I came and they really worked well. Other than that, I still have stock suspension and some really crappy Dunlop tires!

Just want to let everyone know, if I would have been willing to brake harder and gun it harder, everyone would have a different story to tell. My speed was all in the tires and suspension.

Fried okra kicks ass! I have different feelings about cole slaw though.

The Dragon is truly a unique road. Most of us stayed at Tapoco Lodge and had some great times there. Sorry, but there is no Dragon in Cali or BC. It would be great to see you guys there next year. Expect it to again be the weekend after Labor Day.
