Gary,

I will not be able to make the track events, but my wife Anneliese and I are planning on being at the banquet on Saturday night, plus the car show on Sunday. How can we get the tickets in advance??

Also - where is the Friday night social with the possible appearance of CS going to be located??

Thanks,

Oh man,
It's just around the corner!! I AM PUMPED!! In about 10 days it's Motorsport Ranch Time again, the most fun you can have in a Cobra with your pants on(clean is up to you!). I think it is going to be an absolutely AWESOME weekend and you ol' boys better be there or be ready for a frightful amount of grief from your "close friends" in our ever-growing band of merry men(& GORGEOUS women), so come on out for the time of your life.
See 'yall at the Ranch!

Is there a website promoting this event? I am looking for the time the car show begins and directions.

Love to join you all, but alas, I will be out of town. Don't own a cobra right now anyway, but I would love to come out and watch and learn, and come to the car show. Maybe next year...

I hope everyone has a great time!!!
