Just registered and looking forward to my first Texas Cobra Club meet. When booking the hotel though, it's giving the rate of $149.00 for the "TX Cobra Club." Should it be $139.00??

-Matt

KSW64 01-05-2013 08:22 PM

$139 should be the rate for a single. $149 for a double. We will look into it on Monday. Please send me a Private Message with some contact info.
Thanks

TCC 2013 Spring Meet--Update
 
As of Sunday, Jan 13th, we have 32 cars and over 55 folks registered for the TCC Spring meet in San Marcos, TX. All details for the Meet are on our website Texas Cobra Meet.

I would still like to get photos of attendees of you as a teenager or young adult with your first car OR a photo of you during your military service. Also send along a current photo of you with your car. Make sure you can see your face in the current photos.

I have had little response to the email I sent out of last year's attendees about holding a "TCC-style" Pinewood Derby. If you are interested in participating in a "no-holds barred" PWD :MECOOL:, please send me an email or PM. We will not proceed with the PWD until we get commitments from at least 30 participants. We have created our own set of rules and classification of cars.

I will post the PWD details on the website in a few days.

Thanks and I will see you in April!!

If you have registered but selected "Pay-at-the-Door", you will need to send payment for the Saturday night Banquet to me before April 1st. Please email me at kenswalker@att.net to make payment arrangements. We need a complete headcount for the dinner by April 1st. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Is there a section for Cars in Progress ?

Seagull81 01-21-2013 01:01 AM

We have had several cars in gelcoat and one that was a in the go cart stage. Come on up and join us. Last year we have a guy from El Paso come in gelcoat to look at all the paint colors to help him decide what color he wanted to put on his roadster. Everyone is welcome even if you don't have a car. There are always seats available for the cruises. Just check in with the folks at the registration trailer and they will find a seat for you.
Check the website. There are a couple of the Corpus guys already signed up.

Texasdoc 01-21-2013 03:36 PM

I was in gelcoat last year. Now painted. Getting the interior installed now. Can't wait for this year's meet.

I can't wait to get back to the great state of Texas. I'm looking forward to making new friends and seeing some old ones too!! Kind of a long drive from Ohio, but I'm sure it will be worth it.

Gordon, Are you bringing that awesome Hurricane Motorsports raffle cobra with you to Texas? I'm sure you'll sell tickets like crazy here. I know i'll buy a few more ....

Yes!! We are bringing the 2013 raffle car with us to Texas. Hurricane Motorsports has done an amazing job with this car! It is truly a work of art! The fit and finish of the car is unbelievable! Wait till you see it, the pictures just don't do it justice. I wish my car looked nearly this good.
