I've been 3 times, and each year has been different weather. I'm hoping for cloudy and dry. My drive is about 3-4 hours driving and about 6.5 hours overall. The spirited drives can really take a lot out of you, but it's worth it. (Thanks for posting the link)

Fall 2017 - Lake Champlain

It's not the Dragon but the North East Quattro of the Audi Club North American is holding their third Fall Drive Saturday, October 20, 2018. The last two were around three hundred miles through the Adirondacks in New York State. Lots of twisties and many of the trees are changing color that time of year.

That looks like fun. Might have to try to come up there and do that some time.

Hey Jim, any idea when 2019 will be posted? Also, is it always in the same area?
TIA

We are in talks now about resort, but generally in the same area: North GA, West NC, SW TN. In the past, it's been announced at the current QDM. I will post here as soon as it is announced.

We stayed an extra day in the hotel to decompress. It was a very busy and well organized four-day event. Every day is planned with military precision and the schedule is hanging around your neck with your credentials. The ACNA Georgia Chapter really has their act together. Changes are seamlessly taken in stride. Southern hospitality is not a myth. I live in a small NY town that is considered friendly but the residents around Young Harris are over and above what I'm used to. Not only at the hotel but every shop, restaurant, and gas station.

I have lots more to say and a couple hundred pictures on my phone for later. Great weekend, great drives, good times had by all, nice job Georgia Chapter!

edit: my white A7 is in the second row / center / next to the red RS 7. SpectreGadget is parked in front of me / front row

It was great meeting you! And a great weekend too. Totals were 107 Audis, 6 Porsches, 4 VWs, 1 Alfa Romeo, 1 Ferrari, 1 Jaguar

About 80 showed up early Saturday morning for the photo. Here's the photo without the people:


Next year, QDM 2019 will be at The Waynesville Inn in Waynesvill, NC.
