I go to Blowing Rock, NC for two weeks every July. Can't wait to get the Fozzy on the Blue Ridge PKWY, Hwy 221, 321, 421 and especially Old SHull's Mill Creek Rd. This year I will take video and pics from the Fozz and the Father -in - Laws new G8 GXP (badass Pontiac)

Blue Ridge Pkwy was awesome (too bad we were in a crappy rental car). I was there in 2007. Here's one of my pics:

I take that route to our cabin in gatlinburg. If we go up there this summer I'll pm ya.. Nice to meet you while you were here, gun show was fun. In the end you were right, I wish I would have hung on to those damn injectors lol. Mountains ftw! I like your neck of the woods, good choice.

There are great driving roads everywhere but flat florida

When I went up to Ohio for Thanksgiving with my gf, there were some great driving roads up there right near her aunt and uncles house where we were staying. Up hill sweepers followed be downhill drops, off camber curves and tight turns.

I kinda regret taking her Scion Tc up there, but my worn summers wouldn't have liked the 30-40 degree weather during the day and we hit some slushee conditions driving through the mountains. My engine sure would have liked the temps though!
