North Georgia Porsche Drive

On Saturday our PCAR Touring Group did a 170 mile run in North Georgia with 32 Porsches. Atlanta > Chatsworth > ElliJay > Blue Ridge > Morganton > Dahlonega (Wolf Mountain Winery for Lunch & Wine). We do these runs every 6-8 weeks. One of our guys shared his GoPro video on a stretch of GA 52/2 between Chatsworth and Ellijay, GA. Road runs through part of the National Forest in North GA. Notice the sound of the group leaving the MAPCO station in Chatsworth, with 32 sport exhausts turned on, there was quite the sweet sound of Porsches in the North Georgia Mountains on Saturday.

Check out the video....

Windboat,

Thanks for posting that video. I'm actually the car directly in front of the camera car leaving the gas station. Pretty cool!

Believe it or not, most of the cruise was at or below the limit. I think just that one shot coming out of the station we picked up the pace.

I've done a bunch of drives, but this one was very well organized, had many great people, and the winery/lunch at the end was exceptional. And as it turned out, the winery was owned by a Porsche enthusiast who opened up his personal garages to the group to look around.

I highly recommend this group to anyone in the North Georgia/Southeast Tennessee area. It's a great group of folks.
