Is there any truth to the crackdown being that tenn doesnt see much in revenue from the gap since the bulk of the resorts and tourist dollars are spent in NC?

A few people told us that when I was down there in 04.

probably. Not many people stay on the Tenn side, but the fun road is on the TN side.

They finally got a store on that side now though.

I think the cop presence is cause of the locals complaining. People use that road every day just to get to work and such and I could see all us playing on it and driving unresponsibly could get old.

The cotton ball would make a great name for a race track
