count me in for probably at least 2....:thumbsup:

[cobrabitn]

I'll be there with at least one dirty Cobra... ;)

[grasshopper]

I'll be coming back from a 'conference' in the Bahamas that weekend and can't make it.:( If I wasn't flying then, I'd hope for rain so I could make the rain date.;)

Sounds like a great opportunity to learn some detailing.

[Big Daddy]

Much better dates than those originally scheduled! I'll be there with mine! :D :thumbsup:

[venomous]

Pretty sure I will be able to make it. Have to check the planner and make sure though.:thumbsup: :bounce:

[nckissfan]

I hate retail!! I have to work that Sunday, as I am going to the great state of Texas on the 23rd. I won't return until the 29th, so rain date will not work either. I don't know if I will ever get to hang out with all you guys. One day, one day.

[cobrabitn]

Check other events, you'll make one of them. :thumbsup:

[White Venom]

Custom performance is also having their open house on march 6th. He is going to have a dyno there $40 for 3 pulls and trophy for the highest in diff. catergories. :thumbsup:

[redsnake99]

Isn't it behind Lowe's Motor Speedway, a mile or so down the road beside the speedway. On the left, beside Jeff Gordon's shop? Someone else chime in here.

[Robbie '96]

Tony I think Lisa is coming maybe I can hook with her & Clarence. I will contact her an see. I have rear end out of car installing gear and new rear control arms should have back together in time.

RJ,

Dale is setting this up for us specifically. We have Feb 28 as drag day, March 13-14 at CMP and March 21 as detail day and then comes autofair two weeks later. Pretty full schedule for me anyway but you all have fun. ;)

Thanks,

Tony

I thought Gordon's shop(Hendrick Motorsport) was on the opposite side of Hwy 29 from the Speedway. I think that is next to the old Alan Kulwicki race shop.

[Mr. Ed]

I'm in for both. Wanna check on some more mods for Wilbur while there also("T"s influence at it again). Uh huh! :eek: Carole is frowning. :( Lemme know when the location/directions are confirmed. :flag: :thumbsup: :bounce:

[flynfink]

Just confirmed that Richard Thomas from Dent Wizard will be there and doing stuff at "member prices".

[venomous]

Is this dent man one of those paintless dent remover guys? I have had some very impressing work from them before. Just thought i would tell ya.:D

I'm planning on contacting Dent Wizard and seeing if they'll come out, anyone have any contacts.

Tony would you get this up on the message board and e-mail list?

Jeff"
E-mail sent 2/29
DW is confirmed

this from the Zaino Man

Jeff,
Looking forward to next Sunday! If I could get them to do it, would it be
appropriate for Olthoff Racing to bring a Superformance roadster or coupe
to this event? I don't know how much room Dale has there, and would not
want to diminish the SVT Cobra Club's event in any way. I might also be
able to get a paint protection film person there.

Participants need to bring the following:
Enough towels to dry the car one time
One towel for use while claying
One towel each for use with Z-6 and Polish removal
A clean 12oz or greater capacity spray bottle for clay bar lubricant

If any of the participants would like me to prewash micro fiber towels
and have them ready for use, then I can certainly do that. They can read
about these at dftowel.com. My prices are slightly lower than the ones at
the web site because the towels in stock were purchased before the most
recent price increase. Prices are $12.35 for the medium (29x16) and
$17.90 for the large (36x20). Those who would like towels should e-mail
me directly at: cashine@juno.com.

So, who's coming?

I've got me, Ed. B., Lisa and C., Big Daddy, Robbie, Venomous

Let's get it going here. I'm sure after the sand at CMP, and the rain today, there are some dirty Cobra's out there.

[cobrabitn]

I'm there! My Snake needs to shed it's dirty skin. :D

[venomous]

Tony, which one??? ;) ;) ;) :D

[Mystic Cobra]

I have a request from the left coast <-------.

Could you guys jot down any Zaino tips or if you get any handouts regarding Zaino and make them available to the rest of us Zaino users?

I've already printed all of the stuff from Zaino's web site but I thought that if the rep tells you anything mind altering we'd all like to know.

Thanks

PS TAKE PHOTOS!!!

I don't know Andrew.... which one do you want to see? :rotf: I'll bring the one you want me to because they all need cleaning. ;)

[venomous]

Looks like i won't be able to make it after all. No Cobra to drive!!! Neither one has a current tag on them and i have no time to put one on it. :( Wish I could make it. I was all excited to get to hang with the SCMC. Maybe I will just drive the old GT up there?? :scratch: :dunno:

[cobrabitn]

Just a big thank you to Dale and his team at Custom Performance for allowing us to come to the shop and detail our cars. We'll be the center of attention at the Autofair thanks to Steve Treece, our Zaino Rep, and the professional dent remover rep from "Dent Wizard".

We had a great time teasing each other and learning how to claybar our cars!

Thanks to Jeff for setting this up for us! :thumbsup:

[johnbasf]

:D Pics??

[venomous]

Man I hate I missed it. :mad: :mad: Wish I could have shown ya'll what shine really is!! :D ;) Bling Bling. :cool:

[cobrabitn]

John,

Jeff has the pics... :thumbsup:

[flynfink]

Here's a few pic's. Turn out was a bit disappointing. :(


But we had fun anyway and the car's all look great. :)

Well, I cannot upload them, I'm getting a message that I've exceeded my limit..

Edmond???

[cobrabitn]

Jeff,

If you try to post a pic that is 862 kb then I can see why the BB won't take it. :rotf: Here ya go....

[cobrabitn]

Very clean shop I might add! :thumbsup:

[cobrabitn]

Everyone thought my 94 looked clean when I got there. Man, were they wrong....it was much cleaner when it came out of the shop! :eek:

[flynfink]

the pic's I've tried to upload have been downsized to around 150k or smaller and I still get the message. :mad:

[Mystic Cobra]

ahhhhh, shiiiinneeeyyy. :cool:

Any good Zaino tips, hints, rumors, misconceptions, sex, lies or videotape?

Is it true that Zaino is good on a ham sandwich or in tuna?

Come on folks..... need the info.

:D

[cobrabitn]

Jeff,

Downsize them more to 50 kb or smaller and you shouldn't have a problem... :rolleyes:

[flynfink]

Richard (the Dent Wizard Guy) get's a door ding out of my door

[flynfink]

Steve the Zaino Guy, show's how it's done.
