As most here know, I had Run to the Hills here in East Tennessee for 9 years. This year I skipped doing it for several reasons, mainly because we did Run to Music City two weeks prior to our annual date and because our regular Sept. time is just too crowded here anymore with the Pigeon Forge Rod Run that same weekend. For 2015 I have changed the name, added many more venues and moved the dates to May 1-3. I will now call this event Cruisin the Smokies. It will be much more than just an autocross and a meal. Think cruising the dragon, poker runs all over town and area, cades cove tour and casino run just to name a few. I have created a facebook page
https://www.facebook.com/cruisinthesmokies for those so inclined and posted a lot of pictures there from the area and its beauty. We should have our official webpage up and going in a couple weeks with more explanation about the different venues, but know that I will post important info here too as it comes in.
I am leaving for SEMA then on to BAJA this week. I will be back home Nov.16. Registration should be up and running before then.
I will give you guys and the pt folks a head start on registration. There are two key segments of this event that I think will interest the Protouring crowd. Autocross and a Carshow/cruise in on Saturday in Pigeon Forge. Both will be limited and I don't want the group that started this to miss out getting in on if they so desire. PRE-Registration will be $80, registration after Mar.15 will be $100. This will include autocross, cruise in and all the other cruising, poker runs, etc. Discounts for registered participants at several of the dinner shows, restaurants, and other attractions in the county. For every venue you participate in, you will get another ticket for our main grand drawing on Sunday. Local merchants are getting involved and even the casino in Cherokee will play a part for those that want to visit there too.
Stay Tuned, this will be a fun time for everyone with plenty to do for all. For those that have been here and need a little something to get your better half excited, how about a discount book worth over $1400 at Tanger? YES, we want everybody happy, especially MAMA!!
