View Full Version : Cobra Day Car Show
Should have posted something sooner, but was wondering if anyone else will be going to the Cobra Day show at the Cobra Experience Museum in Martinez tomorrow? I'll be going up. Missed taking the car last year as it was not back from the painter in time. Anyhow, Maybe I'll see some of you there.

NOOOOO THAT'S TOMORROW?!? Dammit! Been wanting to go too!
See, I knew i should have posted something sooner! That's too bad Danny. It's an amazing collection of real and replica cobras, mustangs, Gt40s, and more. It also looks like we're going to get some really nice weather. There's always next year.

I'm in the same boat you were last year..... wanted to go but not back from the painter yet. I'm told he is spraying color on Monday.
OK, let me see if I can get the few pictures that I took posted up here.

I'm not the best at taking pictures. The white #98 was one of the cars used in Ford vs. Ferrari. In the next picture was one side of the replica cobras, that's me on the far left in the shade. The next is the other side of the replica cars, that's Eddie's (vspeeds) car on the right. Then there are the aluminum cobra replicas, some 65&66 GT350's, an interesting 67 Mustang (it was quite the show listening and watching them drive to their spot), then the real cobras, and a nicely done weber setup.
I wish I had done more pictures, but it is what it is!
Oh, I should have mentioned that after my thread on the overheating problem the car ran great. I think it got to195 at the highest while waiting to get checked in and creeping along to get to our spot. Now to get it properly aligned so it's not so skittish on the freeway.

Are you going to make Alice's next Saturday?
I'm not sure just yet. It's really skittish on the highway right now. I think it's alignment. If I can get it in to the shop at Krause Racing this week we'll see if that fixes it. Hopefully I can let you know by Thursday.
