I don't know where they go now. But I think the shift began about the time Superformance and Backdraft became the favored cars for people who wanted to own a Cobra without having to know how to build or maintain it. In the early days of this forum there was a lot of discussion about technical matters by people building or modifying cars in their own garages. Now days its seems more likely for people to discuss which brand has better resale value. I don't hear much about people taking their cars to the track either. I think the profile of the typical Cobra owner has changed and that is reflected in how and if they participate in this forum. . . . and of course the regular site outages don't help either.
FWIW: When I submitted this comment the system gave me an error message (seeming to invite me to submit it again). Knowing that's why we get so many duplicate posts, I simply closed out the page and reentered the site to see my post where it belonged. This has been going on for years and likely discouraged some less determined people from coming back.
