Great stuff Tenrocca.
Fantasic photos mate. I must have been hard to be there with your car so close to ready.
We all appreciate you doing such great work with the camera.
Speaking as one of the virgins - I had an awesome time.
Very, Very happy with the way our Classic Revival went. About 70 laps of Wakefield (between myself and Churchy)and no mechanical problems. We now have a list of improvements that are going to mean a new mortgage ! But I definitiely have the bug now....
Some niggling problems with the car, but had a ball and did not hit anything. Even when the racing was not on it was tops to catch up with everyone and have a beer or three.

Dont worry Phil - you will get it back (almost) as good as new.
Andrew,
Love the photos; you know how to take a good shot.
I appreciate your kind words; I must say I was quite overwhelmed with the praise I received over the weekend. The Cobra community is fantastic with all of us getting on like we are all best mates.
Les, I was concerned about that type of comment and did not include my car in the show and shine judging, cant help peoples choice. The trophies are metal tried to get silver but ran out of time, long story............
Andrew have fun with the trophy, LOL: thanks I had a good laugh that I really needed.
Well done to all the virgins, to see cars hit the raod for the first time and stay together on a race track is a credit to you guys, your builds are top class.
Phil

Phil mate...I really don't think it matters what the trophy's are made of. You nailed it in your second sentence, it is more about camaraderie than anything else.
Sounds like it was a well organized weekend so congrats to you and your team.
cheers
