Every weekend is busy. This area is a all year vacation spot now. But the Rod Runs stop traffic because of the heavy hitters that come.

Check each cities webpage for local events.

For more Hot Rod weekends its better to google search your favorite vehicle. Example, search "Ford Show Pigeon Forge" That usually brings up other clubs showing up that arn't listed in the cities website.

SUper Chevy, Ford Trucks, Mini Trucks, VW's, Mopars, SVT mustang club, shades of the past, fall rod run, etc etc etc.

If they are not in Pigeon Forge, they are close by like the fairgrounds in Sevier Count. Or even in Knoxville. Like the Corvette expo, Mothers car show and Honda Hoot.

This area is the premiere area for Hot Rods in the South East.

Sounds like bad luck.

The cops around here are very unpredictable with their ticketting habits. A few years ago I narrowly escaped a ticket for doing smoking my tires along with my friend and his 5.0. The cops seemed like a cool guy, not the young asshole type that you sometimes get. We were being careful (not only to not get caught, but not to endanger anyone), too. I think that played a big part.

Then not too long ago I got a ticket for having tint on the front windows on my '99 Taurus. The tint was hardly noticable, and MUCH lighter than the back windows. As far as I knew it was legal. It turned out to be a $10 fix it ticket, but how lame is that? I could have bought a couple gallons of gas with that. What's worse, he pulled me over next to the back of a middle school where all the soccer moms parked with their stupid SUVs that were limo tinted all the way around. No tickets on their windshields, how strange...

He just happened to round a corner at a bad time, heh heh...

My first and only REAL ticket was for going 40 in a 30 zone. Honest to god I thought it was 35, and the only reason I was going 40 was to avoid an SUV that started driving erratically right next to me. The motorcycle cop wasn't having any of it, though. There was a red camaro that was pulled over, I think they were working on their musclecar quota or something, the jerks. I don't regret it though, better a $100 ticket and driving "school" than having a totalled classic.
