Default Results are...

There was one AC Cobra from AER that took the Shelby/AC Cobra Class Award, being the only Cobra in that class.

Of the "Cobra Replica Class": Doug Sherar's brand spanking new nearly undriven "off the showroom floor" Superformance took Best of Class and Best of the Cobras. Mark Bartle's LoneStar Classic (that took best of class last year while under 1 mile usage) took 2nd place this year (Class Award).

I walked away totally empty handed this year --- my 5 year old LoneStar Classic did not get so much as an honorable mention. The judges sheets will be mailed this time (instead of handed out after the show) so I can only speculate the results --- my Cobra was cleaner with better paint than years past when I won awards, but now has minor bends in the radiator due to being driven thousands of miles and on the track. I also could upgrade to the newer type bumper jack mounts with rubber grommets that LoneStar now has in their current kit. I still had fun because most Cobra-loving people stopping by told me they really liked my paint job better.

Congrats to both winners. Both their cars were so clean they could have competed in the Cobra Replica show car class catagory instead of the Cobra Replica street driven class catagory.

I will have pictures later... once I download them from my camera and reduce the size/resolution for web viewing.
