I wish we could get these events to not all occur on the same weekend in May Atleast I can drive from Hershey to Carlisle and cover both, but Sparks is out of my reach

Default Offering my skills

Jay,

I know that it is too late for this year and I have my airline tickets, but for next year let me offer my services to drive one of the fine Backdraft Cobras out to the WSCB for you. I saw your exquisite vehicles last year at Hershey, so I am sure the trip would be a simple task.

Larry

I guess it boils down to priorities....are you into trailer queens or do you like SNAKE? You can always sell more cars, but if you are in the Cobra business, I would think you would want to support the biggest Cobra event on the West Coast...

More press at Carlisle ... granted the replica press is not that big. And for an East Coast operation the cost of attending is literally 20% of a West Coast show. I need economies of scale to take me out there

You said it...more press...for Real Cars...not replicas.

Where as the WSCB is all about Cobras...

ERA will be here. Shelby American will be here...

When will Backdraft be on the West Coast? Are they in the car business or the Cobra business? Or is it the racing business? Reg?

If I'm not mistaken Reg was at the '06 Bash, I chatted with him briefly, seemed like a nice guy. Apologies if it was someone else from Backdraft out of Florida.

This is true. Backdraft was there in '06 and it was the manufacturer. I believe the other manufacturer that will be there is really several customers since they don't have dealers.

It's a big country and plenty of spots to checkout in the year. Until we setup out west it will be tough to hit all these events. Working on it...
