And if there were an Interstate to complete the loop... GAWD that's a long straight.

It would be awesome if the interstate you speak of looped around to the Cherohala Skyway. I have done that loop many times it just takes to long to get from the dragon to the skyway and back.

Nothing that complicated. Toll at one end and a toll at the other. Otherwise, the road stays the same.

The Dragon is nothing like the Ring. It's twisty, but utterly different in the character of the road.

Wait wait wait, Bruton Smith?? That means this may actually get done! Very cool...

I wonder if they would allow rental cars on there? That's all I ever have when I am in Vegas. No way to get my track car out there. I can hardly wait to run a Nissan Versa around there at speed.

I'm referring more to the potential way the Dragon could be operated.
