Gameplan for the weekend will surround the trip to the Tail of The Dragon US HWY 129. For those who haven't heard about this road, it is one of the biggest car enthusiast roads in the country. In an 11 mile stretch, this hwy contains 318 turns. Its every car nuts dream.

What better place to meet new friends, see old friends, enjoy the scenery all around and get out and actually enjoy the road.

There will be a thread starting January 1st, 2010 for lodging. Current plans are as follows:

Anyone that wants to stay in a cabin in Gatlinburg, TN will need to place a 50 dollar deposit by the end of January to Special_K. This 50 dollar deposit will ensure your stay at the cabin rental. This 50 dollar deposit will also go towards your overall rental fee for the cabin. Based upon past experiences the cabin rental should cost between 80-130 dollars for the entire weekend per person. That’s 3 nights of lodging for 25-40 bucks a night per person. What a deal when you account for renting a full cabin with a pool table, video arcade, hot tube, full kitchen and scenic views. Stay tuned for the official lodging thread.

The only thing that is planned for this meet is the Rally over to Tail of the Dragon and spending time over there. The rest of the time can be spent in a infinite amount of ways. There are plenty of things to do in the area like:

Hiking
Horseback Riding
Site Seeing downtown Gatlinburg
Eating Out downtown
Go-karts
Putt-Putt
DollyWood
Driving other roads
Chillen at the Cabin
Sleeping
Fishing

The possibilities are endless.

Come on people. We need Galants there too :D

**beam514** · 12-30-2009, 07:44 PM

Like I posted on galanttuners, 3000 miles is a little far LOL. And I have "deadweek", and then finals right after that

**00galantguy** · 12-31-2009, 09:19 PM

Count me the hell in!

**Galant306m** · 12-31-2009, 09:29 PM

Count me in if the galant runs.

**02redgalant** · 12-31-2009, 09:32 PM

wow kind of tempting

**amnbrueckner** · 01-01-2010, 08:08 AM

If it was a month or so later I possibly could of made it :(

**Boosted** · 01-02-2010, 03:36 PM

I would've made it but the G is down due to transmission swap and 4.0 Stroker build.

Sounds good, but I would just wait till Kevin gets the thread up. As soon as it is posted on C3G, I will have it here.

**00galantguy** · 01-03-2010, 08:00 AM

x2 on deposit

**ICEMAN99TURBO** · 01-04-2010, 10:43 AM

Sleeps up to 30 people. The weekend we are there is the "Prime" season. $735+12.75% tax per night so that comes out to...

$829 total per night.
If 30 People stay there: $28 bucks per person per night
If 25 People stay there: $33 bucks per person per night
If 20 People stay there: $42 bucks per person per night

So we we only get 20 people to go that is still only $126 per person for 3 nights. Not bad at all. When you look into things a little bit more, most hotels/motels in the area go for $100-150 per night. If you stay in a $150 per night room with 4 people, it will cost $113 per person for the weekend. Wouldnt it be nicer to spend $13 bucks more and stay in a luxury cabin???

Amenities include:
6 Bedrooms
5 and 1/2 Bathrooms
Sleeps 30
Mountain Setting with views of the national forest
Hot Tub On Deck
Flat Screen Plasma TV's in living room and game room
DVD Players in every room
Master Bedroom with Jacuzzi Tub
Arcade Games in Game Room
CD/Stereo in Game Room
X-Box
2 Air Hockey Games
8 in 1 Game
