The Official 2014 Tail of the Dragon Boxer Takeover Thread 4/25-26/2014
Its time again to get ready for the Boxer Takeover. We had a great event last year and are looking to make it bigger and better this year.
This event is for enthusiasts and planned by enthusiasts. We organize this every year to give our fellow boxer brothers a place to meet and share our passion for our cars and driving. This event will be held in honor of CJ, our fellow Nasioc brother who lost the fight to cancer in October of 2013 and the proceeds of the raffle will be donated for the care of his 6 year old son. We feel the Boxer Takeover is a great way to support his family and what better reason could there be to bring together Subaru owners and great vendors on these amazing roads to have fun and raffle off fantastic parts for our cars? For those of you that don't know, the Tail of the Dragon is an amazing section of US Highway 129 containing 318 turns over 11 miles (Points B to C in the picture below) Further reading: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deals_Gap,_North_Carolina http://www.tailofthedragon.com/ Itinerary Boxer Cruise When: Friday April 25, 2014 10AM Where: Meeting in Tellico Plains In the parking lot of this strip mall 35.369595,-84.303611 We will be leaving at 10:00am.

Lodging Info
The best way to stay out in this area is by renting a cabin. Fire up your favorite search engine and search for "cabins for rent in" and: Smokey Mountains Robbinsville Maryville Gatlinburg Bryson City Fontana Lake or just take a look around the area and find something suitable (zoom out). VRBO is a good resource too. Cabins are generally available for days to weeks at a time...each one has their own rules. With a bit of work and a few calls you can get really good deals on nice cabins, fully stocked with everything except food. Tampa Group Information For everyone who wants to join our caravan, we will be meeting on April 23, 2014 at 5am, at the Hess Express on 28232 Wesley Chapel Blvd (Just North of Tampa). Exit 279 (CR 54) on Highway 75 at 5am on April 23, 2014. Please arrive on time fueled up or early and fuel up there. Here is the itinerary Last edited by bebesito21; 03-03-2014 at 10:44 AM. |

Not able to go in this month this year but I will be up there in mid march for a week. Hope you all have a great time (as I know you all will). Please drive safe, drive smart, and most of all have a blast. We Subaru owners "Do It On All Four". Hope to see everyone soon.Brian Case, I will miss you this year, you are a great guy. If anyone is up to it, maybe we could meet up with you when we are there in March, cause I know alot of you live close by. There will be about 10 of us going up then. If not, I truly understand.

I'm sure Anthony will get you some great numbers. It may read low since the Dynojet he uses has belt linked drums instead of the standard independent rolling drums, he said it reads about 5% lower than others. But either way you will possibly make close to or at what my car made. Makes me wonder what the point of an STI is sometimes, but I wouldn't give her up for anything. I wish we could still have done our caravan there last week.
