Great trip and shots, thanks for sharing.
On some of the pics, the two lane road has what appears to be grass growing in the road cracks and possible these roads are not used frequently ?????? Just curious.

Mike took great pix and videos. Videos to follow. Mike's work was appreciated very much indeed. I can't believe we lived the dream. 3,000 miles of twists and turns in a Corvette at well let's say
Corvette worthy speeds. The balance of power, handling and braking was superb and spot on. Yes, I agree this should be an annual trip. Personally I strongly suggest that only real road warriors think about coming along. We took little time for anything but "spirited" performance
driving. Eating,sleeping and looking good were on the back burner. I finally understand the value of Red Bull. My thanks to the fine people at the NCM for making us feel welcome and like family. Special thanks indeed to Dave and Jason at the Corvette plant for you taking your valuable time
to show your C7's to us and explain all the engineering details of the car. One more time you've shown why Corvette means family. What a magnificent ride it is. It took my breath away. It is indeed world class. To our new friends from Myrtle Beach we are grateful for your fellowship and welcome into your club event. You have awesome Vettes. Next year Bob, Mike, Alan and Cody are in again.
