Hi Bob looks like you are going to get wet today it is raining at my hose as I write this.There were quite a few mustangs some real nice 66's and some shelby 500's as for the cobras about 10 to 15 my guess I saw some nice ones drive by me on the way in but I decided to wait before walking around to let everybody get in,well that backfired because by the time I got to them they were leaving do to weather oh well always next year.Man do I want a cobra Of course usaully at the shows I would take one of each only thing stopping me is money go figure.

Hey eric was yours the blue with white stripes in pics and had the blower whine looked nice you were pulling out as I was walking up to your area how rude.

Only joking you probably left at the right time the show ended about an hour later and was just starting to drizzle when I left.

Eric,

Nice pics.

I left my digital camera at home. Unfortunately the impending weather kept many cobras at home(mine included). It was a nice gathering of cars and certainly a good collection of 350GT's. Lets hope for better weather next year.

I plan on going up today for the races but if the rain does not stop , I may stay at home. I wonder if they shorten the races if it rains or postpone them all together.

Hey Guys:
Just got back from the Lime Rock races. Not a drop of rain! Talked with Sam Posey, Brock Yates and David Hobbs. Races were lots O' fun. The best Trans-Am time was about 66 seconds. A Skippy car will do 58 seconds. Boy, how times have changed. The #77 Challanger won the "race".

Before the summer is really gone let's (anybody and everybody) get together for a ride! Love the pictures.

Bob

Amazing that no rain fell. Unfortunately, I had to leave after the Trans-Am race so I did not get to see the 350GT's and the Cobra
CSX 2085. At least I got to see those runs on Saturday. Anyway a good day of racing. Bob, I am all for a get together before the Cobra goes to sleep for the winter. I have been so unavailable on most weekends due to work but it would be nice to get something going, schedule permitting.

The "Sunday Show of Shelbys" at Lime Rock Park will be Sunday Aug 31th, this year (2003).

This Show is open to all high perforance Ford, not only Shelbys.
Most classes are Mustangs or Shelby but we do have Special Interest class. We even have a class for the replica's Cobra class because of the large numbers of cars that attend.

The track gets $10 per person to enter the Park.
The New England Region ask for $3. per car to cover needed cost to put on the Show.

Hope to see evey one there.
