The Cobra Owners Track weekends are awesome. 

The whole idea of these weekends, is to be as safe as possible and enjoy yourself.

Listed on the flyer, #1 requirement is "Common Sense".

So I could no longer enter my 66 Hertz car? Nor could my wife drive because she has a bad knee and can no longer drive a stick.

Sorry. That was more of a rail against the paddle shift crowd.

I attended this event on Saturday.  Seems to me this guy is a self-important social media influencer who seeks sympathy from his followers.  The attached flyer clearly states Ford-powered.  This is fake news if I have ever heard it. 

I caution those posters who so quickly reacted to this poor boys dilemma without knowing the whole story.......... and then try to make it an instructional event.

Do any of the clubs put high value cars in separate run groups?
