Hi,
I'm Eric Zehnder from SE Michigan and 31 years old (and 6'3"). One of the main items on my bucket list is to build a kit car with my Dad before it's too late. I'm really not sure if I'll ever be able to accomplish that for even the cheapest of kits but I keep saving and hoping that he'll be around if and when I can raise the money (818 more likely, maybe even Exomotive Exocet). One of the hopefully easier items on the bucket list is just do be able to drive a Cobra replica. For my Dad it is the ultimate sports car - full stop. We go to the Dream Cruise every year and just gawk at the Cobras even if they're just idling by. He grunts at a 427...
As an avid sim racer, I get how easy it is to lose control with a hair too much throttle and I get that real life doesn't have a Reset button. Reading the "A Few Reminders (http://thefactoryfiveforum.com/showthread.php?9926-A-few-reminders-to-all-owners-amp-a-good-read-for-soon-to-be-s)" post hit home about how unreasonable it may be to ask this:
Can anyone in the SE Michigan area help me get my Dad into a Cobra for Father's Day June 17th/18th?
I'm sure he would be respectfully restrained behind the wheel but if just being a passenger is the only option that would still be amazing. Please hit me up if you can help.
Thank You!
