Bob,
FYI, there is a BP station on the overpass at the Dillsboro exit off Hwy. 23/74 & 441. Also a Holiday Express. I will be there by about 9:00 AM. If you hold to your schedule, you should be there about 9:15.
My car is blue with white stripes (something new and different) but I have a big #7 on the sides.
My only problem is we have a new puppy and will have to bring him along. He can't stay home alone all day. Carol may stay at the motel at the start of the tail with him, if he doesn't like the mountain ride up. He has traveled really well so far, but you never know.
Guys, do yourself a favor and be sure to wear comfortable driving shoes, and driving gloves if you've got them. This is a real tight road course, with LOTS of uphill and downhill curves, lots of shifting and braking!!!!!!!!!:D
