Brucee, you need to find that old T Bird tow car you had in the 70's. and take it to Optima. We worked on the Cobra all night then put it on the trailer and headed to Flint for an Autocross. The Pres of the Porche Club came flying by and thumbed his nose at Bruce. Bruce put his foot down and caught the porche just before the big winder turn. A more the 360 turn corkscrew on the freeway offramp. Bruce was right on his tail flashing the headlites and honking. The porche started getting loose in the rear. the T-Bird pulling the trailer with the Cobra could out corner the porche. When we got to the GM parking lot Bruce told them to move the cones farther apart so He could runn the bird pulling the trailer. Told the officials at registration the T bird was faster.

3170,

It just doesn't get any better.
Lot's of us geezers...40 years in the trench and runnin' thin on time ...
We all got goose bumps dreamin' about the life you live.
Each and every one of us in some small way sat with you guys as you won that event and are just proud as hell to own a replica of your true sports car.
To you guys who own the real thing...a deep bow!!
