Cameron,
Congratulations on your performance. Catch you Tuesday night. 6.00 pm start 94773393.

Sorry to see the LS1 let go  ......think of the possibilities 
Phil and Karen, That diff issue must have been disapponiting considering the prep you guys have put in. Bet you come back stronger.See you Tuesday.
Mike,
Top effort for first time out....bet you were abolutely stocked.....should be interesting when you build your fun motor   See you Tuesday.
I sure missed being there.
Regards,
Phil

buggered
Had a great time at Shelby Fest,
It was unfortunate that the diff went as the rest of the car felt great and I was looking forward to as many laps as I could to bring the times down.
I think I got about 3 laps on friday and 5 on saturday.
Well done Cameron, you are the master excellent driving.
Leigh, sorry to see that happen even if it an LS1.
Mike, you champion , Yeah I will take it slow, I hope I done hold you up , that would be the absolute best first drive of a new car I have ever seen. 1.47 fastest lap 
Peter, 1st place you looked very pleased with yourself, well deserved.
The Victorians, Tony, Jason thanks for having us. It was a very relaxed atmostphere that was great fun, well done.
I have no pics but there were many cameras so I too look forward to the pics.

Just arrived into Sydney... What a lovely drive with some nice heavy showers on the way through 
Clearly I had a great weekend. Well organised, great crowd and action packed. Thanks Jason, Tony all sponsors and the Vic Cobra Club.
The failures on the weekend were sad to see, but I note that most who suffered were already on the 'make it better next time' track
I look forward to catching up with a few of you on Tuesday night, thanks Phil.
As for the true heritage of car and Driver.
Driver born in Vic, Lived elsewhere for last 12 years, now residing in China
Car, born in South Africa, part assembled in Vic and registered in Qld with a US engine, whereabouts, variable
I'll leave that to someone smarter to work out  
Cameron

I just got home and unloaded the car, parked it in the workshop and slid the door shut. Tuck my daughter into bed and then have a hot shower and a bit of a relax and read the forum before hitting the sack.
I'm tired and a little sun burnt but very happy. My face hurts from grinning all week end. What a great event. Thanks to all the organisers for 2 days of the best fun you can have with your clothes on.
It was excellent to catch up with so many fellow enthusiastst and a real bonus to meet several of the forum members I haven't met before.

Thanks Phil, Well I honestly didn't know how the car would run. I hoped it would perform OK but I could hardly be smack talking and saying I was gona kick butt or anything like that. I could have easily ended up looking like an idiot.
Great pics Jamie. Nice to chat with you and your Dad too
Cheers

Congratulations
Congratulations to Tony and Jason on another great Shelby Fest. Three years in a row and just getting better.
The WASP is looking a little sad for wear with having two drivers and a practice day on the Friday. I let my son have a drive this time as he normally provides the tow vehicle and handles the video. He found another 1.5 seconds that his father could not find. Age must be finally catching up or a fear of crunching a majestic beast is probably my best excuse.
One again tks to the Vic boys.
Sorry to see and hear of the busted bits,
Richard
