Western CT/NY cruise this Sunday 11-14

[Cashburn]

That's ok, it's high brow I guess?

Seriously, you guys should form a CT Cobra Club and Vintage would be happy to be your first sponsor.

Seriously Jay, that is an excellent idea, except for the fact that there is no "you guys"in this ! We are all Cobra replica owners, nobody is any better than anyone else here!!! How about this, why don't we all together form a group called CT Cobra Club! You have organized many cruises etc, and this is a great idea IMO, and since it is your idea, why don't you start the ball rolling and see how much interest is out there. Let me know if I can help, I will do what I can, time permitting!

I'd be happy to. But the fact remains that a club should not have a bias toward any particular brand/manufacturer. I think that our hosting of events sometimes turns a few away for some reason out of allegiance to their brand. Which I can understand.

So I'd love to sponsor some how, but want and need someone else to take it up.

Not being biased is exactly what i was saying, and I think the way you come across, sometimes people take it as you are biased and your brand of cars are better. I really don't think it has much to do with type of car the person is driving. I have been on a bunch of rides this year with a varied selection of different cars on the same ride. very friendly, and absolutely ZERO animosity!!!!!
In all honesty, your comment in post #2 was taken by me and others as "It's just Jay's way of pissing on you then telling you it was just a joke. It's only OK to organize a cruise if you own a Backdraft." . This actually came out of one of the PM's I received after your post.
So when you say that your hosting of events sometimes turns a few away for some reason out of allegiance to their brand...maybe, but maybe also some of the reason is your attitude.
Jay, please don't take this in a negative way, no harm or malice intended. Just being honest with you.
We who drive these kit cars need to stick together and we all need to remember that it is a we thing and nobody is better than anybody else because you drive an ERA, Backdraft or whatever!
That said, how would you suggest starting a Ct Cobra Car Club?
Later...Dave
