The venue for Corvette Expo has changed this fall.
It will return to Sevierville in the spring.

The fall event will be held in Loudon Tennessee and there will not be an auction, but there will be an open autocross and a the fFriday night cruise will be something different!

From the flyer:

Charge up those GoPros and fill the Corvette tanks with fuel, we are making an as- sault on the Dragon in an attempt to set a World Record for the most Corvettes on the Dragon at one time. The Corvette Cruise to the Tail of the Dragon will leave the Loudon Municipal Park on Friday October 16th at 5 pm with Police escort. The trip is approxi- mately 50 miles of beautiful East Tennessee back roads that is sure to please any Cor- vette Enthusiasts. The photographer at the Dragon will shoot a picture of each Corvette while on the Dragon for purchase online. We will also go to Fontana Dam for a photo opp after completing the Dragon. It has been Corvette Expo’s goal to take the Corvette Cruise to the Dragon for several years, but the logistics from the Sevierville location were not suitable for such a Cruise.
The location of the Loudon Municipal Park, on Highway 72 makes for a perfect cruise to the Dragon with incredible views along the way with Fall colors in the Mountains and along the Chilhowee Lake. Don’t miss this opportunity to cruise the Dragon with your Corvette friends, as we will be back in Sevierville on March 18 and 19, 2016 where we will again be cruising the foot hills of the Smokies.
Cooper Events has applied for a GUINNESS World Record for “The most Cor- vettes on the Dragon in one day”. Help us set this record on Friday, October 16th.
Our 2 day Autocross will be hosted by the East Tennessee Corvette Club, and will be open to Corvettes as well as other cars. If you plan to participate in both Events, the Autocross will conclude on Friday in plenty of time to line up for the Cruise to the Dragon.
“Fuel is cheap - lets Burn some” ▪ See you in Loudon October 16-17.
LOCAL AND STATE LAW ENFORCEMENT ASK THAT YOU OBEY ALL SAFETY & TRAFFIC LAWS!

This should be a fun cruise and an opportunity for those of you that have always wanted to do the "Dragon" to do so with a large number of fellow Vette owners.

Cool. Actually, I already have plans to be up there with my Z06 that Friday morning but with a different group. Guess my 1 car can add to the count.

I am planning on coming down for this. What time will I need to be at the event to go to TOD?

chevyman_ky

the wife and I are going to try to go on Friday.

Phanni

Actual time for the TOD run is not set in stone yet.
It should start late Friday afternoon.
I'd be there before 3:00PM just to be sure.

JetMechZ16

I might be able to make it. I'll be coming off of a 12 hr night shift Friday morning, then I'm off for the weekend.

Ok what is the Dragon...I love the cruise idea

PMD C6

Here is a guy "cruising" down the Dragon.

CMC6

Thank you buddy...I think we may attempt to get to this one, we are in Nashville

Decided to lay out of work on Friday and do the Loudon show and the Dragon cruise, weather permitting! The Dragon is a nasty place to be in the rain, on a motorcycle anyway. Then go spend the night somewhere around Knoxville or may even go on up to Pigeon Forge. Then do the Sevierville show Saturday.

CMC6

we are doing the same. Hotel is booked, coming from Nashville. looking forward to it

Phanni I love the idea of setting the record on the dragon, we have booked our hotel and will be there for sure. We are members of the Nashville Corvette Club and will be mentioning this to friends for sure. just love seeing convoys of Vettes running down the road..

Here is a question that many are going to think I am an idiot...I refuse to drive a dirty Corvette (imagine that) coming from Nashville our GS will not be looking great...obviously a car wash is out of the question...what do people do in situations like that? looking for any great ideas as I am sure everyone is going to be looking good when the run begins

PMD C6

Adams Waterless Wash.

Have you set a time to leave yet? If we leaving at 5 wouldn't be getting close to dark time we make the store?

Keep us posted as to the time of the run and what time we should show up in Loudon. We will be traveling from Houston for this show and run.

I'm from NC and I hope to be apart of the cruise.

CMC6

Does anyone know if you are required to register if you are doing the Park and Show and the Tail of the Dragon Cruise? I plan on attending both but not sure registration is required. PMDC6 you wouldnt happen to know would you? You have been my answer man to some of my other stupid questions.

PMD C6

Haha. I have no clue. I wasn't planning on attending the event. Already have plans to spend the weekend with some other car friends at a motel near Bryson City. We are planning on driving the Dragon that day but mainly before noon.

CMC6

LOL well have a great time. I know I am looking forward to it
