Great weather at drag day, Thanks to all that showed up - Page 2

sn8kbit · 05-18-2003, 08:39 PM

Guys, I really hate that I didn't make it down. Got the car out of the shop at 1:30 am Friday, really didn't want to do a 1k round trip without makings sure the car is fine (which it is, thanks Delk!).

Big Big Thanks to all you guys for making my old man and his friends as welcome as you did. He called me as he left the track and talked almost as much about you guys, as he did about how much fun he had. I really appreciate that (not that I thought it'd be any different).

CONGRATS JAY on being KIng Eliminator!!

The weather was great (( despite tony's idea that he is the weatherman

) Emily told us on the way home that she really wants to have a cobra and race it!

but she really did enjoy it-clapping for the winners and being awed by the burnouts!

**cobrabitn** · 05-18-2003, 09:57 PM

Dang it Jeff!

You're going to make me post that picture aren't you? I thought I'd surprise everyone wth Jay's picture.

i did the same

To Tony and all the club members,

On behalf of True Blue Performance, thanks for the invitation and letting us hang out with all of you at the drag strip. We enjoyed ourselves and appreciated the opportunity of being on the track for a few passes.

Regards,
Dan Wagner

Hey Dan...thanks for bringing that beast down and hanging out with us amatuers! It was fun watching you guys try to tame that beastie! And it was great finally meeting you!

flynfink · 05-19-2003, 09:31 PM

yeah we hate you missed it too.... oh butt

don't you worry dear redneck bubba, you'll get whats coming to you..

Ken 01-Cobra · 05-19-2003, 10:06 PM

Once again guys...did any of you end up with an extra air pressure gauge? It has a blue face, reads 0 to 60, and holds the last pressure reading. I left without it, and if someone has it, I would appreciate it if you would let me know so I don't have to go buy another one.

EDIT: My air pressure gauge has been found. Thanks all of you for double checking!

Just wanted to say thanks to all of you for letting this clueless girl come down and join in on your fun. I didn't do my GT justice, but it was A LOT of fun. I'll just have to practice and meet up with y'all again in the Fall!

Hey, girls can too! Glad you had a good time!

smashedheadcat · 05-20-2003, 04:52 PM

I had a great time as well. I wish I could've run the car, but I had fun anyway. Thanks for letting me take a few passes in the '01 Ken. That was very nice of you, and I really really enjoyed it.

Ken 01-Cobra · 05-20-2003, 05:08 PM

Hey, just wait til the fall when we can run with REAL rubber!

I'm glad you enjoyed running the Slowbra (at least compared to yours and with street tires).

Somehow I managed to crack the rear differential cover this past weekend. I wouldn't know how that happened, but it is in the shop getting a new one now.

smashedheadcat · 05-20-2003, 05:42 PM

I bring evil to cobras I think. Is warranty covering that???

Ken 01-Cobra · 05-20-2003, 06:05 PM

I don't think you had anything to do with it Josh. I heard a rather strange noise, something like a thrown wheel weight but much softer, on the drive back to Atlanta. I actually stopped and looked at the back tires, etc. and saw nothing amiss, so it had to have happened either then, and hadn't started leaking yet, or later. So I won't let you take the rap for this one.

But you might ask your dad to take the curse off.

I KNOW he doesn't like his boy driving Ford's, but he needs to get over it.

And yes, it is covered by warranty, though any internal damage in the pumpkin may not be. Since it was still leaking today, I don't think it was run dry, so hopefully there will be no internal damage.
