V6 - Green Mountain Gringo (AKA The Green Egg), Smuggler's Notch

I just checked out the link to the other forum post with the full list, anyone have any idea what Tomb's Roof V8 at Smuggler's Notch is? I'm a Smugg's local and I've never heard of it!

A non-local suggested it so maybe it has another name???

This list is awesome! I'm gonna be cuttin out of San Diego soon and heading back to RI for a bit...Can't wait to tear up some of these classics!!
