I'm arriving Thursday and am staying at Fort William Henry Hotel. Will probably go go-karting on Friday. My co-pilot is my 15 year old so that seems his most likely pick! Happy to meet up with others!

edit: scratch the go-karting.... he's fixed on 6 Flags.

Can't wait! Fingers crossed on weather.

This is my first official cobra get together with a useable car. My wife and I are really looking forward to it.

Good day doing prep work for the trip! All fluids checked, up on jack stands for a loose bolt check, tool kit packed, car cover all good to go!
