First,
Duane,
Thanks you for all you haver done to put togther first class events over the last 4 years. Well done even with formidable challenges. Your good works can not be praised enough.
Second,
Joe at Kirkham,
As a person who attended 3 Reno gatherings including the 1st one, attended many Kirkham Open Houses, participated in several
Kirkham Track Days, I can attest to the following:
1. If Kirkham is involved, it is a first class event.
2.
Miller Motorsports Park is ideal for our roadsters. (SAAC 32 was here last year, for example) PS: be sure to look at the "track tour in a "Ford Cobra".
3. Non-Kirkham owners always welcomed and treated well.
Our
Utah Cobra Club (UCC) has sponsored two past "Tour Utah" trips that included 3-days on the road and this year a 4-day cruise through Yellowstone, Jackson Hole, Idaho, etc. to get off the freeways and into some nice scenery away from phones and pc's. Can you say "vacation"? Our Club is willing to put some "bodies on the ground", so to speak, to help with any 2009 gathering/convention. Maybe the UCC could do the multi-day cruise part for example. This year we have 2 couples from AZ, 2 from NV, and 4 from SoCal, 24 roadsters in total. The women have become great enthusiasts as they are participating rather than spectating.
The Utah Cobra Club is small but fairly active:
As far as accomodations,
SLC has wonderful convention-class facilities, so that would not be an issue.
Joe, if you want, I would be willing to put detailed ideas down and email them to you for input.
Whatever is decided, we at the UCC are willing to help. Let us know what is needed.
Sincerely,
Larry N. Johnson
President
Utah Cobra Club
