Well I can say without question today's run was the best one day run so far. We drove about 130 to 150 miles. There was a good mix of wide open highway and winding roads. We had very little traffic and mostly country roads. The weather and roads were perfect so if one liked they could open up the cobras, and we did many times. The food was great and the company fantastic.

Andy, thank you very much. Can,t wait to see all the pictures of the trip.

I know we all say what a great time we had every time we go, and we do, but this run was unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jim

We drove at least 150miles and as Peter Brock said on his way to the Cobra bash Reno, with Jake and the guys from the NW it was a real pleasure smashing bugs with you guys today. I was tired when I got home as my wife says, having fun is alot of work, I clean the Cobra up for the next run and down loaded the pictures and I think some of them are real cool with the wide angle lens and the Cobras moving next each other. If you guys sent me your e mail address or e mail me at ateal@wavecable.com I well forward the pictures to you. or I could put them on CD. All the runs have been fun, I well be gone next weekend but home after that. Looking forward to the next Cobra ice cream stop.

Andy

Andy,

Please send me the pictures so I can see what I missed. I need to retire so I don't miss out on all the "bug smashing".

I must also congratulate Andy on a fine job in setting up that run. The weather was perfect, the roads were made for the Cobras, the company was great and the food, beer and ice cream were icing on the cake. As mentioned, we traveled well over 120 miles and collected a lot of bugs. It took me an hour to clean the front end and windshield. Jim Too you need to pass on that fight fires/save lives gig to someone else and retire. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. I would especially like to thank Jim (race-it) for an added bonus on this trip. Jim usually provides us with a light show on these runs as he motors on down the roadway with turn signals blinking merrily along the way. This season he has added an audio treat; the popping sound of Weber's during deceleration. At first it's a little unnerving but after awhile you stop ducking and begin to think of it as an audible brake signal.

Andy, again thanks for a great ride!

Oh Boy. Farts in stereo. Sounds like "chili night" at the fire station.
