Default Corvettes and Cobras....
We got together today with a local Cobra club for a nice run through the SoCal countryside. This was a GREAT RUN!!! I put over 250 miles on my car today!!!!

[EDIT] Lots more pics here too....

We had 19 cars......11 Cobras and 8 vettes by my count.....it just doesn't get any better than this!

We run out of the San Diego area. We officially meet with the Cobra guys on the first Saturday of each month. Watch the Pacific Events Forum for the monthly notice. Today was a little OctCobraFest run and we ran thru the mountains east of SD. This Cobra bunch are just car crazy like us vette owners. We talk cars! We ended up at one the Snake boys home for Brats and Beer. Can't beat that eh?

The question is: are any of those real Cobras actually real (vs. kits)?
