Hi Folks, |
Everybody, sign up NOW!!
I know John has put a lot of time, energy, and $$ into this event, and it is sure to be a blast. For those of you who took part in the track-day event at the BASH the last few years, this event is being put on by essentially the same group. And it is certain to be a blast. For those of you who haven't been to Thunderhill, it is a neat track about 1.5 hours up I-5. It really is a cut above Reno-fernly, and will be great fun to drive. There will be groups to support all levels of experience. This is an unsolicited endorsement, and my only interest in the event is to see it succeed and survive until I can take part :). I hope to see everyone up there in July, I'll be the one on crutches, trying to bum rides off you drivers. |
+1!
I'm signed up, and looking forward to having a great time! :D |
Ron & James,
I'm looking forward to seeing both of you there! Stay tuned, we'll be emailing announcements to you on a weekly basis now. CR will be here before we know it and I'm getting excited! Talk soon, John |

Announcement from Cobra Roundup - Karen!!
Calling All Cobra Roundup Participants! Saddle Up Partners, 'cause we've got less than 3 weeks to go to the Innaugural Cobra Roundup Event to be held at Thunderhill on July 2, 2009! So grab your boots ‘n hats (and your snake too!), and get ready for some real fun….Cobra Roundup Style!!!!! See Y'all Very Soon!! . |
For anyone sitting on the fence and wondering what driving on a track would be like, this is a fantastic opportunity to come and play in a safe environment with experienced and patient instructors. My high school buddy who built my track car in 2004, has never driven it on a track and this looks to us like the best possible place to learn about the car with others in a low key learning environment and with similar vehicles.
I know most folks on this forum don't know me, but I have competed in NorCal NASA Time Trials since 2005 in a FFR spec (not spec legal) car. Thunderhill, IMO, is much more user friendly than Infineon and many steps above Reno Fernley. It has a nice long front straight and lots of run off area where it counts. One could not ask for better instructors than Karen, John and their team, all with many hours of instructor experience, Cobra experience, and Thunderhill experience. You just can't get that kind of expertise anywhere else. Most any other track group will have all types of late model vehicles, instructors with little or no Cobra experience (and Cobras are special!!) and probably higher track counts for beginners to cope with. Simply put there is no better place to learn about your car and improve your own skill level than at an event like this. I have competed in drag racing, autocross, and open track events, and it just doesn't get any better than an event like this. Disclaimer: I love driving track events and T-Hill especially. This is a totally unsolicited but clearly biased opinion. I hope to see lots of new Cobra folks on the tract!! Sign up now to help make this event a success and a future annual event!!!

Yes! Agreed.
Hats off to John and Karen for putting this together. Thunder Hill is a very nice track and facility. For anyone who's never been to T-Hill before and still wondering or waiting to register, try not to wait and think too hard about it. All around this truly is a great opportunity and THE place to be with your Cobra on the track. DC |
I just want to invite anyone who has never done an open track event to come on up to TH and give this a try. There is no better event for a cobra guy to try out his/her car for the first time on track. Everyone involved in this event is extremely supportive and full of help. Questions, just ask. You want to work up to speed carefully? Great there will be a lot of people just like you. This isn't a race and nobody will push you or your car any harder than YOU are comfortable with. Great fun and safe way to "give er a go"
If you have done open track before, like the cobra family, have one, and want to join in, then there are faster classes for every ability. Howard Jones. Happy, returning customer |
John,
I'm bummed...I can't go as I'll be out of the State from the 1st to the 12th. Your track days have been awesome in the past. I know everyone will have a GREAT time. Tom Mareina |
John,
Good luck with the event. It sounds like it is going to be a blast. I will call you after the weekend and get a update. David |
