My wife, Kara, and I would really like to thank everyone who came out yesterday to the 1st Annual Cobra Revolution!! Despite having to delay it one day due to bad weather and even having a slightly damp start, the turnout was tremendous. I did not get a chance to count the final number of Cobras that showed up, but I know at one point, there were 35 or 36 on the lot and a few had come and gone. So I think it was about 37 or 38 Cobras and probably about 80 people total.
We had a wonderful time at the event and can't thank everyone enough for coming out and making it what it was. Seeing all the different cars and getting to put a face to so many names was great.
I do need to thank a lot of people for putting in so much help. My wife, who I now owe huge favors to!!
She really helped more than I can say. I could go on and on, but don't want to turn it into a speech, so let me just say special thanks to Bob Marshall, Rob and Kathy Simoes, Mike (those name tags were awesome!), and everyone on the organizing group who met on that cold, cold day in January.
A lot of people drove a long way to join us, and I really appreciate it. Many came from the DC area and North Jersey, which I know made for a long day. Thanks so much for coming.
Thanks to some strong mug sales, it even looks like we will be able to donate a few hundred dollars to charity (my wife and I still have to do the final tally).
Here are some more photos....I hope. Does anyone know how to turn these from a link to actual photos? (sorry, the yellow/black one with the flags is mine, I couldn't resist)

Anyone else who had some great shots, please place them here.
Rob Simoes also got some great photos. They are on

It was a really great time, thank you so, so much to everyone who came, and I can't wait to do it again next year.

P.S. We still have beautiful Cobra Revolution mugs for sale (anyone have a photo they can post). They are $5 each and that money will go directly to charity. The charity we chose is to benefit family members of service men/women who were killed in the war.
