Hersh,
I wanted to shout from the rooftops about how happy I was to receive your email but I wasn't sure if you wanted everyone to know just yet. After word gets out about your extreme generosity, you'll probably get requests from all over the country for your "spare Cobra"
Fosters is OK, but I really should bring some XXXX beer (that's it's real name, it isn't just the forum editing a swear word...) It's the pick of our beers! There's a rum distillery in Queensland that makes a wonderful, smooth rum that you'll have to try as well.
CobraDan ... don't go scaring Hersh by mentioning accidents when we're talking about me driving his car!!! The accident wasn't driving related - just a little knee operation...
DV ... are you guys ganging up on me with the "no beer" sentiments!!! No need to worry, I'll have enough trouble staying on the right side of the road without using alcohol as an excuse

How do you guys get used to changing gears with your right hand anyway???
After the disappointment of missing out on last year's Fling, I was determined not to miss out again. I was always excited about getting to Ohio to see perhaps 300+ Cobras, but driving over 2000 miles each way to get there just adds a whole new dimension to his holiday. To see that much of the U.S. is a wonderful opportunity,
to do it in a Cobra is a dream come true!!!
Thanks again Hersh, you have no idea how many friends and family know all about my trip already. I've had the map of America laid out on the table for the last few days. I have the roads memorised, and Dad keeps singing "Get your kicks on Route 66...." whenever I mention the trip!
See you in a little under 4 months!
Craig
