I was on that road dozens of times as a kid before it got famous amongst the driving enthusiasts. It's a great place for your little brother to get carsick all over the back seat. We used to take it up to Lake Santela in NC from Maryville, TN to camp, and apparently one of my parents' neighbors helped design it during the Depression (he's over 100 now).
It's also important to note that several drivers (usually motorcyclists) are killed on it every year. It's also incredibly busy when the Goldwings are in Knoxville for their annual convention.
