As my car was being finished up, I saw one mechanic pointing toward its cowl and explaining my Dragon logo to another one. With enthusiasm. My pal Larry says that, if it comes up in gearhead conversation that you have been to the Dragon, you will get one of two, and only two, reactions: 1) "What's that?" 2) "Jeez...," with a wistful stare into the middle-distance. Any curve freak who's heard of the Dragon wants to go. Any curve freak who's been wants to go back.
Maybe mechanics in Knoxville, Maryville, and Robbinsville are blase about the Tail of the Dragon. But get a few hundred miles away, and they point and talk.
A Dragon sticker doesn't say who slayed whom, but it says that you at least strapped on your armor. |
