Default Run the Dragon!
Hopefully everyone will have a chance to run their 911 through the Tail of the Dragon in TN/NC. It was definitely worth the effort to get there.

And, there are photographers along the route who post pictures that you can purchase online. Here I am enjoying my 911.

Going with the blue painters tape is a great way to protect the car from isolated events that gather rock chips. A day at the track or a trip to the twisties, you put it on.. and then take it off when you're done. The clear bra.. you pay to get it put on and then its on the car until you pay again to get a new one, not exactly the same kind of use case, and not hard to understand the difference either.

not a bad idea for a road trip like this. I am planning a trip up in the fall, and have had the 10hrs of rock chips on my mind. I may go this route

Great pic. Great looking car. We did the Tail last year as part of a road trip from Dallas to Virginia for my wife's college reunion...T
