RD you are right about 2 things the signing of an old man for a donation and race track time at Watkin for track time. As far as the REAL COBRA thing, I will not get into that stick. This is more for the rich people than the average person. Alot like Pebble Beach car show where the winner are already picked even before the show begins, just like the major dog shows all politics of who you know. I am going there to see 2 great cobra drivers that are still alive. There autographs are worth a hell of alot more that CS. I think everyone forgets that CS got Ford and AC together not that he every won a race in a cobra. You have Miles,Gurrney,Johnson, Bob B and a host of engineers and mechanics that made the legend happen. Peter Brock is one that should be thanked for the coupe being build to win over seas and here. Tony S won and held many NHRA and IHRA records for years racing cobras in the 1/4 mile. These drivers did it for love and a small amount of money in a car that would scare the crap of of most drivers today that don't drive on dirt and have the ability to drift a car at a buck 10 througha turn and not lift. I never liked someone taking ALL the credit for what a group of smart, special, expert persons did to build a legend. When I get the bigger motor in the car, I will go to the Glen. Do they except dry sump systems? Rick Lake
