Wheels and Waves Car Show | Santa Barbara City College 2015 That will take you their page. It was May 17th. It was at City College which is on a bluff over looking the Santa Barbara Marina and the pacific ocean. One day show each May. We were a featured event with about 200 cars. Featured? Yes, all the cars were on site except 20-30 Cobra's. We received the OK to enter and we did so as a group. As soon as we shut down the PA announced that "the official start of the show could now begin". Talk about making a statement. Later that day we cruised to some local wineries. We chose Firestone and Fess Parker wineries. It felt like cruising through the hills of NAPA again. The drive across the desert was pretty mild since we left at 5am. Coming back it did get a little warm between Quartize and PHX. We left late (9am) to get behind the LA commute. Leaving at 5am from SB would take us home without and heat at all. Well, not as much anyway. If anyone is interested I will put together the information for next year. We have used the same Motel for the last 8 years. The motel blocks off their underground parking garage for just the "Cobra Clubs". La Quinta at the end of State Street is the place and location. It's a one day show (sunday) and the rest is local cruises, shopping and dining. This is a trip that was put together to keep our Ladies happy. We used to go to Knotts Berry Farm each year but the girls hated it. They refused to go back but the attractions of SB (Shopping) kept them in the cars and happy. This past year only had about 25 cars. We have approached 40 in past years. Some regulars bailed at the last min. or we would have had 30, which is not bad. We usually pull out of the underground garage at the same time. You can image what the hotel guest thought when we all fired up the Cobra's and roared out of the garage onto State street. Sweeeeeeet!
