Default Priceless!

Hey all, sorry I missed the shelbyfest, I here you're all having a ball. Leeroy, great excuse for a new engine now (look on the bright side )

Went to a get together with the American Muscle Car Club and decided to take my little girl Isabella home in the Cobra for the first time. I think she has daddy's blood and passion though, here I am thinking that the Cobra was going to scare her, so I give it a couple of squirts and all she can do is scream like she's on a rollercoaster and tell me to go faster! What have I created???

The face says it all (priceless).

Hope everybody gets home safely and posts heaps of pics.

Stef

Looks to me like you have created another Cobra fan! Great pic!

Any time you can get a reaction like that from your kids you know you're doing something right. When you get that kind of face from something that you personally are passionate about, it's just all the more sweet! Cool post man.

Peter had a pretty good weekend, as far as I could see.
He got trophies for:
1. Hottest engine that didn't blow up
2. Second-best "Where the f*** am I?" in the motorkhana
3. Most disrespectful (to owner) pitcrew.

Peter, once I get the video on some DVD's I'll send you one. Free!
