Official 2006 SVT Cobra Nationals Participant List! - Page 3

I'm not Rick, but I'll be tent camping. As far as I know, there are no reserved spots, but I've never seen them even close to running out of room. Nice shower facilities, but no campfires allowed other than the communal fire down by the pond.

Just look for the BIG Swiss Army tent (aka "Tent-Mahal), that's us!

gingerman has plenty of camping space at their facility, I dont think they take reservations

mojosvt · 07-14-2006, 01:09 PM

Thanks guys, can't wait to meet ya'll. Now is the camping all tent, or can one bring pop-up campers? Do most of you guys tent camp (I want to be with the crowd)? Can't wait to head north! What day do most guys show up? Thur? Friday? Can one tell that I can't wait already!

NJ2000R · 07-14-2006, 01:14 PM

most anything goes at gingerman! accommodations at the track range from tents to rv's to taj mahaulers!

most of us get there some time on friday....the track usually has "open track friday evenings" from 5:30pm til dark, usually around 9pm....for 50 bucks, you get track time before the saturday/sunday event!

but, check with the track to confirm this is offered this weekend....

mojosvt · 07-14-2006, 01:21 PM

Very Interesting :d

Lumpydogs · 07-15-2006, 11:38 AM

I will most likely be there.

My car needs lots of attention, work sucks and I'm broke. What's New

tgentry · 07-17-2006, 09:33 AM

Jeff, you have to come, it's the "Cobra Nationals"!

Modification plans for my "new" car have changed significantly and I won't have R tires, but I'll be there.

Lumpydogs · 07-17-2006, 09:35 PM

I got her running last weekend however I'm still fighting a brake bias problem.
I'm getting too much rear brake but don't know why. Everything seems to be
working well and I have bleed the lines twice. Getting a lot more rear brake dust and temps are higher than in the fronts. Hard braking chirps the rears before the anti-locks take over the fronts. I'm confused.

I already missed the SVTOA Gingerman outing last weekend due to a family
wedding. Of course my cobra was not track ready anyways.

CobraSusie · 07-18-2006, 02:03 PM

Can I register same day for the Car Show?
I am planning on being there for the whole weekend,
just want to make sure (nothing comes up last minute)

**cobrabitn** · 07-21-2006, 10:25 AM

Made my hotel reservations today. Please be reminded that the the 22nd is the cutoff date for room reservations at the 89.10 rate. After that, it goes back up to $107.10 per night.

P.S. Cobra Susie you can register the day of the show or Friday night if you plan to come up then?

tgentry · 07-21-2006, 11:30 AM

Too bad you're not camping with us Tony, but I understand. We'll just have to get our share of picking on you during the day.

**cobrabitn** · 07-21-2006, 03:49 PM

Tom,

I don't mind roughing it but I'm sure I'll be worn out from the drive up and back and will need the rest because if I stay at the track, I won't get any sleep from all that partying y'all will be doing. Nevertheless, I'll stay out there as late as I can just to try and keep you and Brian straight!

Lumpydogs · 07-22-2006, 11:13 AM

I just registered for the Cobra Nationals at Gingerman Raceway.

Had to order one of those sweet "got cobra" t-shirts also

PETSNKE · 07-22-2006, 12:22 PM

My check is in the mail

LOUDERMILK64 · 07-22-2006, 09:20 PM

I am trying to make plans to attend too
