Hi Dan,
Yes, you are correct. Cobra Bash is intended to get our members together and put some faces to the keyboard names.
I myself would like to meet some of the people I have been conversing with through the years.

I have been on the "Cobra" forums for about three years now and have met so many great folks. I only wish I could meet them face to face.

For now, Cobra Bash is going to be a reason for getting the Florida Guys together. We dont have a "Snakes to the lake", or a "Chowdafest", or Tracks like Charlotte that we can gather at as a group just to name a few.....

It seems like "AS A GROUP", us Florida guys dont do much of anything. That is hoping to change. I want “Cobra Bash” to be something we look forward to as a group.

I am not going to try and out-do anyone. I just want to do my best to make this event memorable and fun for everyone. I want the guys that show up to come again next year, and tell their buddies about it. The more Cobra's the better!

I'll put together a schedule of events and post the info soon.

Hopefully we can get some good event ideas at Cobra Bash I.
See you all in a few weeks.

Joe,
The Gainesville event is being run by the CFR SCCA.
They have reserved the track for two days.
The rate $$ for us to run at their track will be $20.00 per day for SCCA members, and $25.00 per day for non-members.

I plan on setting up the hotel for the Tampa area and convoying up to GIR that morning.
The SCCA arrives at 7:00 and then starts running the course at 9:00.
That should give us plenty of time to convoy up, tech and familiarize ourselves with the course layout.
Leaving the N. Tampa area NLT 6:30 am.

I am still going to look into a local track as a back up.
Gainesville would be nice for those guys who are coming from the North... They would be partially on their way home already....

Let me see what I can put together.

Thanks,
Ed
