Default Kick Off the New Season: East Coast Ride

Too much damn snow. I'm thinking of the near future. Just started my BDR snake with ease. I'm getting the itch to go riding, but its just too soon.

However, Just checking interest in a cobra kick off ride. Involving anyone in my area of CT, RI, MA, NY, ETC.I'm sure Jay and Bryan at Vintage would be interested.

We would have at least two months to get things squared away such as rally points, course layout, meeting points, breakfast and or lunch and dinner bring the wives or girl friends, a son or daughter. I think it would be fun to do.

I just enjoy driving these things, so if anyone loves driving their cobra's as much as I do maybe we can all come up with a nice kick off event.

Let me know of any interest.

Thanks.

Jay from vintage mentioned something about a combined ride to the Limerock events.This sounds great too.

It may be too far to wait for me. I was looking at an earlier ride to kick off the season some time in April as well. We can do both weather permitting of course.

Lots of sand in my area still. I Hope to be planning a kick off event some time in april or so. RI Mansions, state wide ride, ride to central location for a picnic, Gilette Castle, etc. Something different to kick off the season and get the oil mixing good.

Hope some of you cobra guys in the area can make it I think it can be a fun time. No matter what car you have. Bring a passenger, friend, spouse, girl friend, etc.
Gary

Had the Snake out on Saturday. After resting for 2 months it started fairly quickly. Ah, the sweet smell of hydrocarbons on my sweatshirt.

Had this guy for 10 years now and I'm still on the same Interstate battery.

It hit 50 here today in Central Mass and I went for a quick spin around town (maybe 20 miles). way too much sand on the ground, with all the rain we got, I was hoping that it washed most away.

And with snow in the forcast for the next 2 days. . . .

My vote:
No. 3
No. 4

I live in Newport, but the roads aren't as fun/as nice as East Haddam CT. As matter of fact -- most of RI's roads are sh!t

As long as it is well thought out, organized, and in one place it should be good

Below is some ideas that i mentioned on the backdraft section

Guys I'm thinking of a couple of attractions for the kick off ride in late April. 1. Basic ct run through Fairfield. County to up state and for a stop or two for some chow.
2. A limerock run for a nice ride and racing spectating
3. A RI Newport mansions sight seeing tour
4. Ct castle run
5. FFR Ma run for factory tour
6. Casino run Mohegen sun for lunch
7. Other?
Just some ideas for now all are welcome.
Note There is a Car Show in Norwalk, CT at Calfs Pature this April which is always well attended. This may also be a nice ride for the kick off event

Thumbs up Calfs pasture car show run Norwalk ct

Sun april 25 8-3 pm judged car show at above location. All are welcome. Cobras and our friends with other types of cars: vettes,chevys gtos,caddys,i dont dicriminate. This show is a fun way to kick off the season and is always well attended. Meeting points to follow. Those coming north or south of Norwalk can have diff meeting points then one larger one to possibly arrive together. Having good # of cobras rolling in at the same time would be impressive and fun.

For cobras wishing to ride in together to the show, meeting points and times for those coming north and south of Norwalk will be scheduled. Any input for the central meeting points will be helpful to assist in planning. All are welcome. Family friendly as well

Why is this thread running in duplicate? Can't one of these guys be deleted?
