POSTPONED TO SUNDAY OCTOBER 16TH
FALL SPRINT 2011
PLEASE SIGN UP ON THE FACEBOOK EVENT PAGE:
FALL COBRA SPRINT 2011
The season snuck up on us once again and we are already planning the big send off for the season. As in years past, this event is open to all owners of Cobras, Daytona Coupes, and GT40s ... whether you built it, bought it, borrowed it, or inherited it. The goal is simply to get owners of similar vehicles together in a casual environment to enjoy the cars on great roads you may not have driven before.
Prior years we have focused on Litchfield County with runs around the LRP area. This year in hopes of adding some more drivers from other regions AND taking in some new scenery we are shifting the drive area to the incredibly scenic Bear Mountain / Hudson River NY area. If you have not driven in this area either by Cobra or motorcycle you don't know what you are missing (so I will post some photos of the region/roads below).
The date for this is:
