Ryan,

Great advice and beautiful pictures. I’m planning on doing a trip down there next summer.

Recommend staying at the Tapoco lodge, great food and covered parking for your car..
I parked next to a Ferrari 458 and a GT350R when I was there

Few pictures from a trip early last November, right at the end of the season. Spent a few days running around the hills with my wife. Really wish we could have made it up there this year, but work, Covid, and commitments put an end to that plan. Here's hoping for next spring.

We went down last week for Rennsport 2020 and had a great time. Thanks to the organizers.

Planning to go late March after collecting our 718 Spyder at Atlanta PEC. Any thoughts on weather or other observations? Will be heading North through Kentucky afterwards.

I did the tail in 2013 with my BMW M3 Vert and my trusty side kick, Rocky.

Went on the Tail with my son in his Mustang 5.0 GT last fall. I plan on driving on it in my new to me 2017 Carrera very soon,

I don't know what rock I've been hiding under but I signed up for Rennsport 2021. It appears the Fontana Village Resort is the preferred lodging to stay at?

Thanks for sharing. It appears Tapoco is much nicer, just about 30 mins away from the Rennsport activities. First world problems lol
