Check out the "Fail of the Dragon" thread

The pics show lots of Ohio drivers at this year's MOTD living on the WRONG SIDE of the double line. Pics were all taken by Killboy and his pals, and full license plates are displayed. Guess it just goes to show that ya never know when someone might be watching you [and taking pics] when you least expect it.

Big Brother at the Dragon. Jon Dunn just called me and said both Mark and I are on there.

Wellzy, we're banned from the Dragon.

NOT GUILTY

I was there a week before you all went with 100+ classics and if these links work I can prove I was not guilty (unlike a few BRMers)

OK, I touched the line on this one but didn't cross

I've gone Left of Center on the Dragon (on my bike)... but it was to pass a slow moving HD cruiser...

Footnote:
Don't pass on the Dragon.
Do as I say, not as I do...

Perhaps this link should be sent over to the Ohio MINI club threads since there are quite a few(at least in this video) MINI's bearing Ohio plates most notably the "JCW Hot Dog" who has the most shots of his obvious disregard for the double yellow line.

Well, after witnessing JCW Hot Dog (ok, in different cars, but same driver each time) at MOTD on two previous ocassions, I can vouch that is his standard path through most of the 318 curves!!! (Do you think there is any other driver that has been to MOTD on 3+ ocassions and never been in the same car twice?!?!?) I guess the good news is his car didn't ignite this year!!!

Kind of like when he loves to plant himself in my blind spot and stay there, blocking traffic on the way to MOTD or other Mini activities.

By the way Kimoz, you stole my post/quote!!!

Knowing what your outfit was, I can attest your fashion sense ranks in the same category as your Dragon driving skills!!!

sorry i think that it is a self indolgent act putting up the picks and the posting and reposting to evey thing that people say. like with alot of thing on the net people type big then are smal in really life. so i went left of center i think we all have at one time or another when we drive that road. if i had to guess that was on the way in wedseday and i had 500 pounds of stuff in my car, as thouse of you who ate at our caben can atest. in the end i let my driving record stant for its self.
