That is a Black Cherry Mica.

Cool color, but my distaste for Large Tupperware is hard to overcome.

haha, it is! Black cherry mica NB2 48k miles. I picked it up a month ago to serve as DD and a seat time car since my turbo NA is too fast for my driving skill.

i'm unable to attend this year. i have a reservation for a two bedroom cabin from wednesday through saturday. due to the change in ownership, i can't get a refund but i can sell my reservation. so, if you will pay me $138.00 for the deposit, we just change the name and it will be your reservation. the remainder would be $506.12. so, $644.12 for four nights. pm me if interested. i stayed in this cabin in 2018 and 2019, the air conditioner works like a champ!

After much work we got everyone ready for the trip. My brother in the red NC and our friend in the NB made it up earlier today I'm still heading up with my wife on Friday.

+1 for getting together one night to get food or hangout or whatever.

Successfully boat raced last night with @muthagoose in his BRG NB.

We spent some time at the base of the dam hanging out with others as they got pictures and lots of roller shots from the back of a 4Runner and TSX wagon.
Any MT groups linking up today or tomorrow for drives?

It looks like the white turbo K Miata was totaled on the dragon today (and took out a Mustang). The pics show Padlock's car was at the scene so maybe he knows the story.

We saw that Cobra on our way out of the dragon this morning. I even told my buddy, damn that's a nice looking mustang and I don't usually say that lol. Sucks for both cars but I hear the Miata was at fault.

what I heard through the grapevine is the miata locked up and understeered into the mustang. Everyone ended up okay I believe, thankfully.

From what I saw on "Fail of the Dragon" it appeared to be the kmiata guy in the white NB? Either way, everything I read looked agrees with your statement about it being the fault of the Miata.
Also, I'm impressed with how well it looked like the Miata held up in the crash compared to the Mustang.

Here is a video we did on the vendor section and fontana village. We have a bunch of driving footage we are also putting together for another video. Hope you all enjoy it.
