Pick your side

I knew there were issues the day I came on. I spoke to the SAAC owners at VIR and told them Carroll was upset. He hadn't gone to a convention in years. .....amy b

He hadn't gone to a convention in years? What? Let's see.....VIR was SAAC 31 in 2006....right?

SAAC 30 was in California in 2005:



That looks like CS in the cowboy hat, there in the middle...

SAAC 29 was in Michigan:



Think I've seen that guy at the podium before...

Then there was SAAC 28 in Nashville:



I think the guy next to Dennis Gage is CS....

At SAAC 27, even though Shelby was in great pain from recent surgery, he still entertained SAAC members for lunch at his shop.

I think clubcobra members have as much to fear from CS and TS as SAAC members....if he succeeds in crushing SAAC...he'll be after anybody else who happens to use "Cobra" in their name. This is definately a dark time in history for Shelby and Cobra enthusiasts.

Just think, if CS had invested half as much effort into embracing the Cobra replica market, instead of suing and trying to KILL it, he COULD have probably been the largest Cobra replica manufacturer in the world. Instead, he has alienated an entire group of followers who loved the cars he built so much that they created their own versions of it.

Seems to me it would have been much simpler to just leave SAAC alone, and start Team Shelby for the guys with the new cars. If SAAC was so bad, people would have switched over to TS anyway. Now, the lines have been drawn, and the guys who tune their cars with computers are on one side, and the guys who tune them with their ears are on the other side - and I don't think most of them are coming over.....
