I just talked with Chris regarding a room. He said that the schedule of events has changed because only 6 to 8 cars have signed up for the event.
I'd like to attend, but I have a 200 mile ride up from Quincy (just south of Boston), and the Weather Channel now says intermittant and/or scattered thundershowers on Fri and Sunday in the Stowe area. Hopefully that will change.
My longest trip so far has been about 50 miles (I'm a newbie) and I cannot get in or out of car with soft top on the Cobra (I'm 6' 6"), so its a permanent convertible.
Chris understands that such a long drive to see less than 10 Cobras with threat of rain on my travel days might be a dissapointment. I told him I would call him on Thursday to see if the interest has increased.
Reading the threads on this post - I expected more. But I know that some local Cobra's "may" be showing up without booking a room. Does Chris know that?
Does anyone one have a handle on the number of Cobra that will just drive up for the show and drive and try to skip out on the things that you have to pay for like BBQ, dinners, luch, etc?
Chris may be a great guy, he loves cars, but all the work to put together a Cobra event with less than 10 booked rooms is NOT going to make any profit for the Inne.
P.S. - Is the NE Cobra Enthusiast an actual club with a president, secretary, etc, or just Cobra owners who communicate thru this forum? I ask, because I posted a thread "Join?" about a month ago and have not recieved any reply from an owner in the New England area.
