Vettes Vs. Tail of the Dragon
September 10-13, 2026
This is a Corvettes Only event capped at 200 corvettes. The Fontana Village Resort located at Fontana Dam, NC is the host for the event, which is just ten miles from Tail of the Dragon. I have prices that are tentative at this point for rooms at the resort. The ballpark price per night is about $200.
The cost for the event is $249 for the driver and $49 for the passenger. This includes:
- Access to Driver’s Meetings and printed maps for your guided tour drives
- Guided drives based on your desired pace for the three days and over 600 miles through the best roads in the US.
- Unlimited access to photo library from our personal event photographer. These will include the photos from Killboy Photography. He has tents along the Tail of the Dragon on Friday and from our personal event photographer that drives our routes with us.
- 2026 Vettes VS. the Dragon event shirt
- Access to the catered Welcome Dinner and Bonfire Party
- Vettes VS. the Dragon Windshield Banner
The event has plans for about 600 miles of driving over a three-day period.
Starting Thursday September 10th for registration is from 4:00 pm to 8:00pm.
Friday after the drives starting in the morning there will be a welcome dinner so all participants will eat together in the Event Hall.
Saturday and Sunday will be days of driving.
We will be driving on the Tail of the Dragon, Cherohala Skyway, Hellbender, Moonshiner 28, and many other mountain roads that you would not experience on your own.
The approximate drive times are 6 hours on Friday, 6 hours on Saturday, and 5 hours on Sunday. Driving groups will be broken into driving styles.
From San Antonio to Tail of the Dragon is around 1100 miles I am thinking two days to get there, driving about 500 to 600 miles each day.
I am working on an itinerary for routes and places to stay and eat at. As I get more information about the event I will get it posted. I want to get our spots reserved.
