Many of you
Cobra [and Daytona Coupe and GT40 and Shelby GT350/GT500] enthusiasts
are members of SAAC (Shelby American Automobile Club),
and as such, have attended and participated in SAAC's annual
conventions and track events. This year it's SAAC-34 at Beaverun
Motorsports Complex, Wampum, Pennsylvania—between Pittsburgh
and Cleveland—August 6, 7 & 8, 2009.
Many
of you no doubt wonder just how the decisions are arrived at
regarding which major motorsports facility will be chosen for
each future SAAC National Convention. So this year [SAAC CEO]
Rick Kopec unilaterally resolved to dedicate the lion's share
of the club's limited resources to hiring a film production company
to document the track-selection process; you'll watch as Rick
calmly and skillfully guides and directs SAAC's executive vassals
through the highly-refined process of selecting the track facility
for SAAC-36's (i.e., 2011) convention.
