mistertripps Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Any clue where they do AutoX up there? It sounds like it used to be part of the festivities. I'd love to see it come back.

I'd love to see it come back.I forget exactly where, but it isn't close to Fontana Village. It's in a "nearby" town. Might have been Maryville, TN.

Brian0758 Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Just got the newest MOTD 2011 update and registration opens tomorrow, Jan 10th, at 8am :rock: I will be so ready for some Dragon cruisin and hanging out with all them MINI's :top: 2012 Jeep Rubicon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmcveay Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 If you haven't followed the updates, the Autocross is out this year. I guess there wasn't enough interest and it also conflicted with the group photo. It's also about 2 hours to the place they have the autocross so there was concern with getting people back to Fontana village in time for dinner on Saturday night. 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon "Homer" 2012 MB/CR JCW R55 "Merlin" Sold 2009 LB/LB R56 "Archie" Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Sounds like it was probably a good idea to cancel it then. It can be hard to manage when an event has too much stuff going on.

maacodale Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 The last I heard was the SCCA region putting on the autocross didn't feel good about the interest. Being a former SCCA autocross chairman, I'd agree. The insurance is pricey at best and I'm sure they didn't wanna lose money on an event for non SCCA members. Seems I remember it being in Marysville. Which by the way has a big Hoosier Tire distributor there. Having said that, I'd have brought the race tires! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenCactus Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Is anyone interested in meeting up to register tomorrow morning? I'm not sure how that would work, but I thought I'd throw it out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian0758 Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Just curious about what events people might register for? For sure I am going to do the Beer Swap but not sure about any others. I think it would be fun to just do some small runs and not the large organized ones. We should also try and plan on doing some meals as a DCMM group.

cmcveay Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 Great idea Katie! There's a little "mom and pop" place in Robbinsville that we ate at a few times last year. If we are able to go down early, we could take a trip over there and see about setting something up. 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon "Homer" 2012 MB/CR JCW R55 "Merlin" Sold 2009 LB/LB R56 "Archie" Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian0758 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 I have the whole week off but I am not sure when I will be coming down. Need to verify when Quitta is renting the cabin. If I can find sleeping arrangements I am planning on heading down early. 2012 Jeep Rubicon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FAST060 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 I have the whole week off but I am not sure when I will be coming down. Need to verify when Quitta is renting the cabin. If I can find sleeping arrangements I am planning on heading down early. I need to call and ask what days I reserved the cabin. LOL, it's been a hot minute since I made the reservations. Also might want to find out what cabins everyone else is in so we can get one close to the Fam. https://www.instagram.com/smokiendabandit/ 2009 MCS, HzB/B, CWP, PP, "BLUR" MOTORING ID: SOAR143 - MINI Community Service 2013 JCW GP, Thunder Grey, "SMOKIE" MOTORING ID: FAST060 2014 MCS Clubman, Highclass Gray, "THE ADMIRAL" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
