Hi all you AZ Cobra Guys and Gals, how's the weather today in "your neck of the woods?"

I've been driving my cobra for a couple of years now and the car has never touch any water except for an occasional spray on the undercarrage from an errant broken sprinkler.

Yesterday ( Sat.), I attended a local benefit car show here in Lake Havasu City. The weather was looking bad all morning with an accasional sprinkle but not too much. Just after the trophies were handed out, all hell broke loose, it poured from the heavens.

Well, I had to drive home (about 5 miles) down Hwy. 95 in the driving rain (I mean driving rain). No wipers, just Rain X, a cap and sweat shirt hood on top.
Suprisingly, most of the hard drops flew over the top of the windshield at speed, but the water ran in just under the edges of the windshield on both sides.
I think most folks driving by thought I must be pretty dumb driving around in an open car at that moment....I guess I was....Oh Well I had to get home.

It took me about an hour to dry the car out, which included removing the floor carpeting, but everything else was good. The best and most important part was that the motor never quit.

Well, how is the weather in your neck of the woods today?

Bill
