Mile Hi Cobra Club Drive/Event

[Thompson]

Bob,

The trip was great. Thank you and Michele.

What a Colorado Type trip. We were worried in the morning if we had enough sun screen and then in the afternoon if we had enough water proof clothing. I love the drive down. And to see 14 Cobras in a row. WOW.

We drove home after a quick stop at the El Colorado. Rode in rain all the way. I think that is as wet as we have ever been in the Cobra. Did not use the top, just put on our rain suits and drove up Hwy 83. We got home about dark and started to dry out. Got the Car dried out and cleaned up yesterday. Now we are ready for another adventure.

Hoping to go to High Plains on Saturday or Sunday to watch. Have you been there yet?

I raced there with NASA a month or so back. It's a great track, very challanging. But the facilites are a little rough.

If you go, pay the $25 and take a few paced laps around the track. It will be worth it.

I'm thinking of going, but not sure yet. I have some pots on the fire, and if one of them comes to a boil, I won't have the time.

I have heard (from Keith Hall) that they have been doing a lot of work on the facilities and that they are coming along real nice. Good idea on the laps. I am also thinking of going out one of these open track days to run it for a little while. New suspension on the Cobra and it handles a lot better.

I must be living right. I went back to Denver on Hwy 93 - all the traffic lights were green (even those through Parker!), and I even had a little blonde riding in a Ferrari give me a big smile. For some reason the guy driving the Ferrari wasn't as friendly. I pulled into my garage just as it started to rain.

It was nice to complete a drive this year without getting soaked.
