I haven't been on Club Cobra for awhile, but what I see about the Anniversary Party is great, and a little sad. As was mentioned, we are all a little longer in the tooth than we were when all this started, but we're not dead yet. I, for one, would love an opportunity to slide the cobra and/or my Boss 302 around the autocross. As my brother told me, it's harder to do something silly when you look old enough to know better! The autocross is an opportunity to push hard, make noise and smoke some tires without concern for scrutiny. It would be pure mechanized joy and I'm all for it. With the autocross option, I'll bet both of my sons will want to participate. So.....count me in for three drivers. I'll bet we can get 30 easily, and that's just Cobra Club members and guests.

The annual Yankee swap and awards presentations are classic CC events that really brings the members together. We should schedule that for near the end of our time, and maybe even end the autocross so that everyone can participate as a club. People might even earn some new awards if they do something really spectacular (like lose a wheel) on the track! Track events and club social events really are different; maybe we can have both if we schedule things properly???

These are just thoughts, but I do like adding the autocross to the day's events.
