dont know if you remember back in 2011, there was a guy in a white 8 (not me) who kept waving out his window to tell the cars behind him to slow down.... VERY annoying. Kind of like the red truck last year that was pissing everyone off by driving at a crawl on purpose until the guy in the blue r3 stopped him and told him to pull the **** over. THAT was ballsy as ****/epic

Well for me Friday morning is great because we traditionally do a "Mountain Loop" were a caravan gets up early and does a big circle through some of the more popular roads, such as the skyway, dragon, and 28, ending at Fontana Dam for the "Damn Dam" picture. That is the big group shot you always see in Modified Mag or on the web sites. it is one of the main three events, the others being the car show on Saturday morning and the award ceremony Saturday night, and the only one I really car about (my car will win no awards or car shows, lol) So yes, in my opinion, you would be missing out on the best part if you sow up mid day on Friday
Check here: Deals Gap Rotary Rally - Rotary Car Club for caravan info, looks like djmitsu has a TN caravan thread started already. Usually all of the southern caravans meet in Atlanta and ride up together; its really good fun to be in a group and constantly see more rotaries suddenly join up out of nowhere! Both of you guys, DO THIS!! You have no idea how sad I am to miss it this year, I feel like I am killing a tradition

Sounds like the Friday morning cruise would be good but I dont think ill be making it. Im sure there are many other drives through the Dragon though right?
Seems like right now my plan is going to be to leave on Thursday afternoon and arrive early Friday morning, around 3am so ill be pretty tired and might just meet up at the Damn for that picture. What time is that usually?

I updated the itinerary to the official 2013 list, and added an "event locations" map to the Event Info tab on the site.
The Event Locations are important meeting points during the event. If you have an important location that I missed, or that you want added to the list, please let me know what the location is, the Google latitude and longitude (Latitude and Longitude of a Point), and the address.
