Hello all, seems kinda weird being in a forum where I don't even own one yet. Am starting to think about a build and was recommended by factory five to join and check it out. Been dreaming about it since I was still fixing cars in the early 90's. First I need to convince my wife and she has never seen a cobra. Are there any owners or shows up here in Northwest Wisconsin or vicinity. I know we're not exactly a hot bed of kit car activity up here where there is only a few months without frost!

Welcome. I know there are a couple around Greenbay and at least 1 in Marquette. There are several around Milwaukee and a ton around Chicago.

Welcome! I'd offer to meet you half way to show you and your wife my car, but "halfway" would be somewhere in southern Missouri. I'm sure there are FFR owners that are closer.

Here's a map of some FFR owners:

Don't worry about not being an owner. All are welcome, especially prospective future owners. I was on and off of the forums for nine years before I became an owner.

Welcome. Hopefully your wife will love it, or at least realize how much you do, and give you the green light. Let whoever you get to give her a ride, know how much or little scare factor she likes. You don't want her to get a white knuckle ride if she like a cruizer.

Thanks guys, packing for a Canada fishing trip. Might see me and my family on John Gillespie's Waters and woods on Sat. here in the Midwest.
