Default DV, I was amazed to see

That the fling generated 100 grand for cistic fibrosis research or similar causes. I want to say "att-a-boy" and congratulate you for your hard work. Sorry I could not make it this year.. sure my lady and I missed out on a lot of fun. I actually had some bugs to work out in my car and it's in the tranny shop even as I post this, hopefully for the last time. Regardless of whether any of us can make it, we could send a small donation each year. Even a $10 money order from each member would help. Your activities also boosts the cobra itself.

As to the drag, OK, it was "potentially" dangerous (I have never laid that much rubber with my 514 snake and likely would not on the street, especially with my Strange Engineering 9 inch posi rear and my weight factor) but at least it ended safely and the story will become the stuff of legends at the F150 site, even if the competition was not much to write home about
