The results are usually published on the NSWCC web site as well as Natsoft. Make of Cobra is not recorded though. Any make when set up right is capable of doing well though, and just because one of one make is quick, doesnt necessarily mean another one will be. They are the cabbage patch kids of the car world....unless you have one of them identikit bolt together jobbies

It was more knowing what I was looking at, I can't tell one brand from the other from 20 metres away. Was hoping to have a program so if I saw something I like I could find out what it was. I will just have to be social and ask lots of newbie questions.

Mate you'll find most people are pretty up for a chat and answer questions. Ill be in garages on pitt lane so come and say g'day. Mines the one that looks like it has been painted with wet cement. Ill bring an extra helmet - at the end of Fri\Sat you might get a ride in a passenger seat. You could find someone who knows how to drive but wheres the fun in that

Andrew beat me too it.
But most owners are very accommodating and willing to chat about there own car.
So if they don't look like they are madly trying to put bandaids on broken bits, introduce yourself and straight up ask what brand it is.

If you have a helmet then take it along (Andrew has a big head after winning best original) and his spare may not fit.

You will need to wear long pants and long sleeved shirt.
And closed shoes, so make sure to have them too.

Hey, that's the first time I've seen that Aussie rendition!
Pretty cool.

Got to say, the classic revival body looks the pick of them in that line up, and I've always had a soft spot for g-force & rmc. Nice picks. Thx

Just got back home to a lovely 35 degrees in Newcastle from Goulburn.

Great couple of days in Goulburn at Wakefield (excluding the self proclaimed idiot that thought he was going to ruin our families weekend by telling us we couldn't go down pit lane like last year, thankfully Mark H. sorted this for everyone who had grief from this peanut)

Many thanks again to Andrew and Gavin for their hospitality (Tenrocca and Gav)to keep the family occupied and the rides. Couldn't stop Thomas talking about his new found heros Andrew and Gavin

Got a preliminary thumbs up for next years Shelbyfest - Gav

Great weekend of Cobra action.

Did not catch up with everyone unfortunately but enjoyed a couple of days down in Goulburn.

Amazing how the quality of cars improves every year, especially the times some of these guys are doing.

Mads doing great times on both Kuhmos and R Specs. John White doing 1.04's in a new Pace. Amazing.

Tenrocca cutting plenty of grass in style. Modena looking very comfortable for a virgin at Wakefield. Gav doing great times even with the aero advantage.

Did not get many pics unfortunately.

Ben

Well done to the NSW Cobra club for another fantastic Nationals.
Great weather, great venue with lots of great people

Congratulations to John White winning King Cobra, a very deserving winner and an all round great bloke too! Well done mate.
