About the lift....we had secured that lift prior to the event and were horrified when we showed up Sat morning and it was being used! The guys at the hangar offered to put me up on a fork lift! Yikes! Everything worked out though. And I lived to tell about it! ALL of the cars out there were beautiful! It was my understanding that all of the cars, including "relatives" were to be included in the shot.....
Ok....As a Founding Member of this club and one that has been to every meet since the start I have a question that I have been trying to get answered but no one seems to know. You are right in your understanding that ALL cars including relatives were to be included in the shot if they onwers wanted to be in the shot and out of respect for the Cobras to be at the back of the shot. It has been that way since the start and last year myself, Matt Tice, and another Mustang were at the back of the shot. this year I was asked.......told to get out of the shot. I was told it was "discussed" but I would like to know by whom? Do we have a secret board of govenors or something? I spoke with other Founding Members that did not have a clue...the current President did not know about it....so I blamed the photographer....and now to hear it wasn't so.
Hmmmm...Interesting. For those of you who don't know this club was founded on very few rules or principles. First...there are no rules...we came together as a group of people that love the Cobra. Ownership not required. It's all about the people....the car is just the glue.....we exclude NO One. Never have and I hope never will. This was the 1st year I have not been in the group photo and to say I was disappointed is an understatement. Ok...I have said what I wanted to say publically and get it off my chest. Flame suit on.
