Doing it hard in the USA
Well I jumped off the plane and into the heat.
It's just on 40c - 110f in Arizona in the shade. But I'm told it's a dry heat. We head off to Tulsa in the morning. Should get there Friday late for the bench session and then the track on Saturday and Sunday. Monday we head down to see Jay in Texas at Dallas. A few days there will see us ready to head back to London, Ohio to catch up with 'Stiffy' there. The London Cobra show is a great show that features drag racing down the main street of town. %/.. visualise either Collins St. Melbourne or Pitt St. Sydney with burnouts, drag racing etc...**) "Stiffy" "Stiffy" we are staying at the Knight's Rest - appropriately - it's in London. But we will spend the majority of time in Columbus at the events..**) Our ride is ready for the trip across America again http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...tfrontview.jpg http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...80Dsc00041.jpg |
Thanks for posting the update.
Man I wish I was there. Maybe next year. |
Yes it's fun...
We have had a bit of fun getting the GT40 ready for the trip. A new ZF transaxle, some performance and interior improvements http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...m/IMGP1283.JPG May do the Route 66 museum again.. Both Tulsa and London have big manufacturer presence so I'll grab anything of interest in the Trade Display area. SEMA later in the year just after the 'Run N Gun' will also be interesting to see what we can import into Australia, or see who needs agents in Australia..%/ I have been offered a number of GT40 agencies in Australia...:3DSMILE: :LOL: Bernie |

Hi Bernie,
What's it like inside a GT40 when it's 40 degrees outside, I bet the air-con must be working hard. Ross PS your Cobra is admired by all in Perth |

Ross, thanks for posting the picture of the Cobra. I see Trev has made a few changes with side pipe covers etc. I still have a few pieces for him - if he is not reading the forum - let he know that they are boxed and sitting on my desk. I'll send them when I get back to the factory..**) Bernie |
Trularin,
Hi mate. I just spoke with Kristen and we will catch up at Tulsa. The "Post' count didn't go up much as I stayed off the computer in the airport lounge. Mmm last time I bumped it up nearly 1500 ' Posts' in the few hours I was there - checking photos out..%/ Bernie |

All right Bernie, I think that was the Silver Bullet. Bet you make a phone call home tonight?
Glad to have you here in Tulsa as our guest. I hope you enjoyed yourself? I know Sharon and I were honored to have you and Hershel as our guest on Saturday's impromptu gathering. Of course it is always a pleasure to have Kristen, James, Melvin, Mat, Dean, Lew, Lisa, Patti, Wayne, Kathi, and who ever else I missed also. I know you will enjoy yourself in London but becareful if Jay is holding court and someone offers you some clear liquid. I could be moonshine! :) Clois |
