Hold on fellow venom fanatics.....I don't know the history of anyone else's experiences, other than my own...and they have been very positive. I personally believe that all Cobra fanatics are basically good folks, whether they own (possessed?) originals, genuine, kits, or home-grown versions, or are still panting....so unless I have been, or one of my buddies has been blatently humiliated or taken advantage of, then I hesitate to bad-mouth anyone to the general public. I am a mechanical laggard, and nearly everyyone in the Club has forgotton more than I will ever know about these ear-splitting, leaky, smelling, MONEY PITS....and I LOVE every second of my time, and $$ spent on the Silver Bullet. I also really like the people I have met in the TCC...and look forward to meeting and going to events where other Cobras are. I am a little shy with a flasy Cobra (maybe a Clark Kent wannabe?)...but the same as every other member. Remember, the pants all go on the same way...so take is easy on Steve, as I know him to be like many others I know, like, respect, and wish them all to do well. Pressure can cause people to later regret a remark or action, that may not reflect accurately one's true, long-term feelings or beliefs. Steve helped me select, produce, get comfortable with, and get involved with my Cobra..and for that I am thankful. Businessman, seeker of profit, competitive...you bet....not bad objectives, in my opinion. Remember, our hobby and passion....is his WORK....so his perspective is different than most of us.

I do know this, you cannot make everyone happy all of the time, and I am sure that Steve is no exception. But from experience, Steve has treated my moments of apprehension..like a professional. I have purchased one vehicle (and 1 guitar!) from Steve, and I would certainly purchase another, if he had what I wanted.....BUT NO MORE GUITARS!!

I apologize for my lengthly post, but when it is all said and done, your reputation will be what you were...and Steve may not be perfect....but I would suggest that if you have a beef...try and resolve it. If not, keep it to yourself.

Anyone who went to the Unique/Sanderson event(s) this weekend had an absolute ball...Shelby included. A great family event!! NTMC worked their rears off...maybe we should have, too?? Next year we should be taking the initiative, IMHO.

Good luck to all...as our temperature gauges drop 10 degrees!!
