Cobra Bash II is in the planning stages now.

[Engineer Ed]

OK, I have been working on Cobra Bash II.
Dan has graciously instructed me to be the host of our second event.
Thanks Dan
I hope to be able to get a few more ideas at Cobra Bash I to improve Cobra Bash II !
Here is what I have so far.....

I have had some discussions with the Central Florida SCCA and we have been invited to Gainesville on November 16th or 17th to run at the 1.6-mile track.
I have not confirmed this price yet, but the cost will cover the track cost and insurance.
I should have a definitive answer this week. < $40.00 per driver.

I was unable to secure the Florida State Fairgrounds at any time after September 1st. We can work on another event for mid summer next year. That appears to be our best time frame to reserve FSF.

Gainesville is about 1 1/2 hours North of Tampa. It will be one cool convoy up, trust me....

Saturday (11/16) will be arrival of DSCC members and car show and dinner at Beef O' Brady’s in Lutz, FL.
There will be notification of our gathering in the local newspaper.

I am in communication with the owner of Beef O’ Brady’s to allow us to conduct our car show and have access to the restrooms. Trophies will be given to top cars voted on by audience.

Sunday am, Cobra convoy to Gainesville for a day of racing.
Track will be run by the Central Florida Region SCCA.
Tech inspection is similar to the rules of the DSCC.
Car's not passing inspection will not be allowed to race.

Hotel information will be posted in a short while.
I have room for two Cobras at my "new" house and Tom Jones has informed me that he has room for a few others.
I am working on a reduced club rate at nearby hotels.

There are a few local speed shops that may attend as vendors.
I'm working on that as well. Automotive Engineering and Blue Oval Corral are a few of the prospects.
I have asked for an instructor to teach a class on improving car setups for racing, but the cost for a seminar would have to be passed on to the attending DSCC members. Unless you all think that is something you want me to pursue, I am forgoing this as a possibility.

Let me know what you think.
Looking forward to a Pre-Holiday season Cobra Blowout in Central Florida!
