NSXpedition 2024: NSXs on the Tail of the Dragon in the rain!?

Welcome to NSXpedition 2024! Our annual gathering of all generations of NSX in the foothills of the smoky mountains to drive the Foothills Parkway, The infamous Tail of the Dragon (US129), and the Cherohala Skyway and hang out with some of our good friends in the NSX community! This year we had 8 Acuras and 1 Honda (RHD, legit JDM) NSX in attendance. A bit down on numbers due to the weather, but it turned out to be clear enough to have some fun! Come along for part of the ride as we tackle the Tail of the Dragon in the rain and live to tell the tale.

It’s nice seeing y’all go through to the Skyway and stop at Tellico Plains for a bit. I live probably 20 minutes away from Tellico and it’s nice to see scenery I recognize in these types of videos.

It was a great weekend. Thanks again Richard and Liz!! The 360 camera looks great!

Great video! Which 360° camera are you using?

Id really love to see you come out to Classic Hondas on the Dragon in October. (12th-13th) We have several NSXs every year you'd be right at home with! And I know some would love to meet you. (myself included) 😊

I was up there a couple weeks ago. Is there a calendar I can find to get dates on NSXpedition and NSX Mid-easr meet? Not that I would have made it. On my journey home, noticed a light feeling in the clutch pedal...about an hour out the pedal only came out half way and had to pull it all the way out with my foot, but operated normally (aside from feeling light) then a mile from home did it again and started noticing chattering sound. Praying it's a Master cylinder. Looks like a good time.

I feel targeted as a chicken, lol. 😀 Glad you guys had mostly good weather.
