John in Tucson, thanks for putting together the tour, it was good to meet the Tucson guys and the skydivers were cool. Dan, thanks for organizing the Phoenix gang.

I think I counted 29 Cobras and a Daytona, wow, good time for sure!

Sandy, thanks again for your photography. I wish I was with you guys. Next event in Heber and I will be there. Thanks go to all who made the effort to attend. Maybe we will schedule better for next year.
I missed some fine camaraderie. Well, maybe not Dan, Dave and Karl, but the rest of you.
AZ Bob

Default Thanks Dan & John

Thanks for a fun trip! I loved seeing Eloy and the aerial stuff. Thanks.

What? Nothing until July? Do I have to start having conversations with my wife?

OK, Sandy, how much did Dave from Mesa slip you to get that great picture of himself posted on the fist page of this thread?

Thanks to everyone and especially Dan and John for putting on a fun trip! My navigator Chuck and I had a great time, as usual when I ride with yus guys!

Another great run, and thanks to John for the ice cream.

Did Mike from Ahwatukee get home OK?

China, thanks for the photos. I assume that you found a gas station. Sorry that you missed the Dairy Queen. I owe you an ice cream.

Oh, you sure do!!!!! I was fine, I never revved above 5500 rpm. You didn't see us at DQ, because we didn't know where you guys went.

btw, thank you for the good time!!! It was a pleasure meeting you guys. (but I still didn't get to meet everyone + I'm really bad with names and faces, so I'll probably forget who's who)

China, interesting pics of your drive shaft. What's up with that? Did you get it fixed?

yes I did get it fixed. The drive shaft in the picture is the old one (The one that is an inch too long)

besides swapping out the driveshaft, I also added a 1/4' shim under the tranny which really helped! (helped made the tranny point up for more correct pinion angle.) The tranny is much smoother at high rpm now. I'm thinking about adding another 1/8' spacer for even more positive degree angle.

There's more than one?

Actually I can't find the picture now. Maybe I imagined it.
