    The majority of the gatherings center out of the Fontana Village. Usually the cars are recognizable, the restaurant at the center is the normal rally point. I may go in the autumn.

    Sure!

    I think late October is probably the best time to go. The weather is still mild, the trees are in full color and the crowds are light.

    Josh Hankins has a site dedicated to M@TG. It is gapmiatas.com. It is a mix of people, but scheduled drives are posted, tips, people looking for others to share costs on cabins, etc. You can also sometimes find others from your area to caravan to Deal's Gap. Josh is good people.

    I usually try to link up with Marcus Luttrell. He usually takes a group on a spirited drive or two. More spirited than most consider to be. He's a good driver and knows the area really well. I would also look up MR.n member JamieH. He and Zach can run a great drive, and they are genuinely fun to hang around.

    The key is to have fun, but know your limits. Don't be afraid to break off a run if their limits are higher than your comfort zone.

    Looking like I, nor Zach, will be able to make it this year. Real bummer too. Was really looking forward to making it back this year.

    I'm skipping out. Don't need to be deep in the woods while I'm still on the mend

    Prep for MATG: Had the local garage to change oil and do a check-up, add an extra power port & they cleaned throttle body. I have cleaned & vac interior, treated leather seats and steering wheel. Still to do: check air in tires, wash car, charge camera and CB radios, pack clothes and load up. Can't wait to hit the road in search of that rascally Dragon. Anyone else on here going besides Moor and Andy? I know that Demon is out- going back into hospital, also out is Phat, KFJ, JamieH, Zach, and my possible cousin theothersawyer.
