Home safely after a great weekend. A big thanks to the organisers, volunteers and sponsors for a fun, well organised event. I had a blast! Nice to meet a few "forum people" in real life too.
Now to the person who accidentally lifted my Shelbyfest show bag from the back of a chair at Friday night's pizza gathering... can I have my shirt back? No hard feelings.

Thanks to the CCCV on another fantastic Shelbyfest. Weather perfect again of curse.
Congratulations on the outright place getters. 1st Shane Howison, 2nd Paul Howison, 3rd Tony Welsh. Also thanks to Shane and Paul for making the trip down from NSW and giving the Superformance Cobra back to back titles at Shelbyfest.
Here's some footage of some of the faster cars on Saturday. Check the flame-out after Lyndsay's little "off". I'm glad the fire didn't spread, what a beautiful machine.
That's ok ....just found them on Natsoft Race Results...
(they weren't there on the weekend,like they usually are,so I didn't think they had been done)
Pretty Good times.

Unfortunately, we didn't make it to the Shelbyfest event this year. Only had some fun in practice on friday before the car died. Still did get some onboard footage but frustrating and disappointing our weekend was cut short. From what I could see the event on saturday was well run as always! Thanks to the Victoria Cobra Car club for putting on the event, we love it! Well done to the Howison's on the win! Awesome result.
Here are a few onboard videos from the friday... Towards the end of the highlights video you can here a "grinding" sound which we believe is the diff beginning to fail on us. We couldn't hear that driving until it got really bad.
