Many do want both because the lunch stop is small, or there is some type of event in the middle. The run description will usually say.

As promised here is the schedule for this years events in a timeline with hyperlinks to the events. Brandy and I will be on: - The skillet run on Friday morning, great run leader and an awesome drive up through the great smokie national forest with the sunrise, and back along the foothill pkwy and up the dragon. - Friday I lead the run along hellbender out to franklin for lunch and back. A fun banked twisty road between the mountain and the river. MOTD Schedule.xlsx

Hey all the runs open for signup in the morning. You have to be registered to sign up. And they need time to process that request, if you are going and have not purchased your registration I recommend you do it this morning. The popular runs fill up quickly as most have a cap on cars due to Leaders ability to retain the good and size of lunch stops. I will post my visual schedule when I get home that shows how all the events layout, I find it easier to plan that way. Some planning advice, only schedule one driving event a day or you end up watching you clock the whole time. A run during the day, and taking part in the evenings social events makes for an enjoyable week in my opinion. You can fill in the gaps will impromptu drives solo or with friends. That being said have your coffee and be ready to signup at 9am to ensure you get the runs you want. Some of the more popular one fill up in under an hour. The details for each run will include how many MINIs it will be hosting.

We have an opening in our cabin right in the middle of all the activities at MOTD. Our usually couple decided to do adult things and be extra preggers during MOTD. It is a shared room has two twin beds with one bed already claimed (male occupant). So there is one bed remaining, if you are coming solo and want a place to crash that doesn't require any driving after evening events just reach out. Please drop me a line for more details.

I'll start: Who? Corey and Brandy When are you arriving? We get in on Sunday Apr 30th. Week make a week of it, and help with early setup Where are you staying? We have a cabin in Fontana Village, all are welcome to use it as a hang out/regroup spot. Is it your first time? We are old hats at this Did you sign up for any of the registration events (welcome dinner, bingo, draggin dragons, farewell dinner)? We are signed up for Bingo (we host this event with our other cabin members) and also have both have spots in the draggin dragons Are there any runs you a excited to do? Well my favorite run it the Hellbender to Franklin (To Hell & Back), but that because I lead that run on Friday. Another run we never miss is the Skillet Run on Thursday morning. This is a early start but drive right through the Great smokie mountains national park (with a high likelihood of an elk spotting) Any Questions you may have? No questions from us, but happy to answer any questions you may have.

Hey all, I did a quick scan of the "who's going" section on the MOTD page and saw we have a few DCMMers signed up. So who all is going? In the past we have done things like a club dinner one night, and it is always good to make sure everyone is set up for success. Let hit they key points. Who? When are you arriving? Where are you staying? Is it your first time? Did you sign up for any of the registration events (welcome dinner, bingo, draggin dragons, farewell dinner)? Are there any runs you a excited to do? Any Questions you may have?

Rear sway bar upgrade is in my option the best cost to impact you can do. MINIs are an extremely stable platform to the point of understeer (wants to keep going straight), a rear sway bar directly address issue.
