I also posted this in the Club Forum area, but please submit feedback on either post.

Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems like there are many So Cal CC members, but I do not see a club forum dedicated to we So Cal folks. In addition to COCOAOC and the LA Club, I would love to have an online forum in which to meet other So Cal owners, set-up gatherings, swap stories, etc. If there is not an entry or forum I am overlooking, how about starting one up.....???
As am getting closer to taking delivery of my Cobra, I would like to find out how to become moreengaged locally.
Well, first thing that might help is to know what your specific location is. Your profile lists only "Southern Caifornia". This is a really big place, 20 Million people covering an area of 30,000 Sq Miles.
I live in the San Fernando Valley portion of Los Angeles.

I think so also. I really don't have the time to join a "club" at this point in my life but to meet up with a some cobra owners from time to time would be fun. Especially when I get the thing on the road!!!
Also the possibility of having other local members available to discuss & possibly help out with problems is always a good thing.
Great point to make. Time is really hard to come by and having a local forum group to share and bounce things off of is another great benefit of getting us all together in one 'room'.
The guys from the other Club forums are probably saying "Duh, guys....that's what they're for..."

Great idea! We can meet for lunch every other month on a Saturday, eat, then have a drive somewhere. John Wais does this with the Tri-County Cobras out of Ventura every other month. (Next event is December 6!) We just need to pick a weekend (first, second, third) announce the location, then do it!! The longer we go, the more people come to it!

Given your exposure to the forum and local So Cal events, how many poeple do you think we can round up for events as well as an online So Cal area in the Club Forums??
I always read on CC AFTER the fact about events like Snakes by the Lake, Weekend Cruises, etc. and as a relative newbie, I am not in the loop enough or no where to look to find out this info. THIS is just one of the functions we can use the So Cal forum for.

If you check on the site: www.socalsaac.org
you will find alot of events and members from the San Diego and Southern Orange County area. While they don't have a forum such as this one to communicate, they do have a members-only email site where you can get in touch with each other.

SNAK IYZ: If anyone has a "cruise" going, or heck, just wants to go for a ride, post it here on the Forum the week leading up to the day, and see who comes along!! You may be surprised by the size of the turnout! Keep tuning in to this Cobra station!!!

As I am still fairly new to this board, is there a way to ping the moderator and check into setting up a So Cal forum room under Club Forums OR Edley, are you saying we can just use this forum??
I appreciate everyones feedback, but all those wild nights in college (highschool, gradeschool, kindergarten, in utero) have somewhat impaired my memory as I am already losing track of everyone. Ok, now it's out there.... Paul needs a forum to keep all of the local contacts straight I knew this would be productive.....
