I seem to remember it's happening around 12:30? It's 1:50 now in Phoenix so I don't guess they are done yet.

I think everyone had a good time . Most went to lunch so pics/vids will come later. Many rides given. Lots of rubber burned. Would do this again in a heartbeat.
31 cars. Most we have had for a long time.

Well that was one the better things we have done over the years since becoming
A cobra guy? Brought a tear to many faces? Great turn out?

This has to be one of the best events for Az Cobras (and the guys from Tucson). Everyone was smiling. Many many rides given with burnouts to prove it. All the people at the facility are fantastic! I can't say enough about all the smiling. What a great event!

Just getting home from a fantastic day, great people and a real bump in my faith in humanity. Want to give a shout too Michael and his wife. I really enjoyed talking with you and taking you each on a short lap around the block. When I asked her what kind of ride she wanted I was told "Look I have 4 brothers and you aren't going to do anything they have not already done so let's go fast!" The day was great, glad we were invited for sure. Jeff C

It certainly made me feel good to put a smile on their faces. It was both emotional and rewarding for me. Also was great to see such a great turnout on an awesome day.
