Default Chicago - Deals Gap "Tail of the Dragon"
I just came back from the Dragon with the Turbo. Let me say it again, AWESOME! 11 hour road trip with the Turbo, and she was bullet proof. Best car ride I've had in a long time, plus the Dragon was fun too. If anyone is questioning a long road trip in a 993 Turbo, dont just do it. You wont regret it.

Done the Dragon many times in the Boxster. Still need to make the trip one day with the Turbo. Some other great roads in that area too.

Sounds like fun! Is the Dragon too tight? Looking at photos/video, it looks better suited for cycles than turbo cars.

Have done it twice with the 930 and three times with the cab. This year will be with the TT.
