Roll Call: 2012 Monterey Motorsports (Cobra) Reunion, Sat Aug 18th
With all the different Cobra reunion events going on this year, there is one during Monterey Car Week August 2012 worth noting again to CC members who plan to be there on Saturday at Laguna (track). Many of us from the Club Cobra regions have met up in the past at Laguna Seca Raceway, more so on Saturday, at or near the established corral area, sometime around lunch period is what typically occurs.
Hopefully around NOON (before or after parade laps - if they occur) we'll get a chance to shake hands and say hello between fellow CC members, or even take a few photos together like we did during the Ford 100 Anniversary. That was a blast. This should be even better for Cobraphiles. Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion at Laguna Seca
Hope to see some of you CC members there among the sea of original and replica Cobras attending this year. I'll be there Saturday with 25 other cobras coming together from my region; solid metallic Blue ERA 427SC Cobra. 
And you?
....

A little birdie told me or should I say I heard it through the grapevine that parade laps will be preferential to cars that have CSX numbers ie 2000, 3000 then 4000 and the rest. But that's what's being kicked around in the planning department. Nothing is set in stone as of yet, i'm just say'in. There is also talk of the six CSX 2000 series Daytona's being present, but hey it ain't August yet.
Cheers,
~Earl J

Hehehe. Just like the Ford 100, it won't matter. The front is going to be at the back as soon as they catch up with one solid loop of Cobras driving at 6mph.

I'll Be there on Saturday.
If anyone can come down on Thursday, Baja Cantina in Carmel Valley will be quite a gas (pun intended). They always have car show night every thursday between April and October, but Car week is always the biggest and largest attended of all. It definately should not be missed. You can aslo go across the street when you are there to get a free preview of the Quail Lodge show. Good food and a ton of every kind of car you can imagine. Also it is FREE to both bring your car or just be a spectator.
There is also the Carmel Concours earlier that week as well and of course the Pacific Grove Concurs and Rally on Friday is always fun. The Pacific Grove show is free to attend without a car and I believe only $85 to enter your car. The car show usually has about 250 cars and the rally goes all along the coast of Pacific Grove, Pebble Beach, and then a cruise up Ocean Ave. in Carmel which is always packed with thousands of spectators lining the sidewalks. I actually won one of the top three awards two years ago for "Best Racing Sports Car".
I am not sure of the dates for the Carmel Concours as they seem to change how many days they hold it every year. So it could be anywhere from a one day event to a three day event. Unless they change for this year, they only allow orginal Cobra's to be shown, and it is also pricey to enter your car. You can check the web site for more info.
You do not need to spend the hundreds of dollars to see the prototypes at Pebble Beach as they are displayed outside the car show area. Also that area plus a bunch more are open Friday and Saturday so you can stop by anytime between Friday and Sunday to see that part, which is also free.
Don't worry about being stuck in bumper to bumper traffic going up the hill to Laguna Seca. They stopped using the main gate entrance for races many years ago. They now use the back entrance which is fairly flat until you are actually inside the track and that will be down hill going in. Coming out there is just a small part that is uphill. The bumper to bumper will be the same, but at least you are not going to be stuck on that long climb up from the main gate.
Being a Monterey local, I try to attend as many things as possible during car week.
The auctions are also a ton of fun and there a a ton of them going on during the week.
If you have any questions or need local info, please email or PM me.
Hope to see you there.
Mike

I'm SO BUMMED. I live 1.5 hours from Monterey and go to the races and/or the concourse every year. I just ordered an Era 427, so I really want to see this. But I have a family vaca and won't be back until the night of the 19th.
I may be able to make it back a day early and get there on Sunday, but would it even be worth it? Does anyone know if Cobras will be shown at the Concourse on Sunday, or at the track?
