as it says above.
is that way goodbye as your pass them?
Anyone in a kit, a car that looks like a kit or any open top car not mass produced in the last 40 years. I'm quite friendly really.
Of course you do, tehn blow them away
I'll wave to anybody... shan't say WHAT I wave though...
^^^^^^^^
they always bring a smile to my face and i'm much more friendly when i'm in a 7
it's just in a tin top that i'm an A###

usualy wave as I pass them........
I always wave at anything remotely looking like a kit but I notice that I get more waves from Aston Martins round my way .......... strange but true
I reckon all the Seven drivers don't think my car is a kit (but I still keep waving)
I wave to any sports car when out in my Cobra. After all the King should acknowledge the peasants
In SA you might see one 7 every two years if you are lucky so can't remember if they waved back
Of course when stopped at a robot the Porsche or other supercar drivers very pointedly look the other way in case you might challenge them so
they never wave back.

I'll always wave... I wont lower myself not to.
They may be rich, and snobish. I'm neither, and prefer to be that way.
I've even had a Porsche driver in a garage walk over and chat to me.
If they are snobbish, then you just calmly tell them it only does 0-60 in under 5 seconds, and you are working on improvements. That's usually
enough to shut them up.
There arent many cars that will out run a well sorted 7 in the 0-60 dash.

your car most definatley does not look like a kit car. saw you once pulling on to the A12 at kelvedon south and i was most impressed.
apart from those ultimate of speed machines, the white van, i get nothing but smiles from other drivers and i do wave back.
although it could just be that i look a t##t in a bike helmet, coat and gloves on a cold winters day
i just long for any dry day when i can take the car out.

a thumbs up or a little wave never hurt anyone, and wether its a cobra or a seven were all the same, by not haveing a production car,were all slightly
rebelious and non conformist

I'm with Donut - definitely not rich (spent a lot of it building the Cobra) and I hope I'm not snobbish. I like to wave to all kit cars
I'll always wave 2 a cob driver or anything else really when i'm in the indy, I'm quite nice like that.

definitley, they can carry far larger toolkits than we can and you never know....
I genrally acknowledge anyone who has a good look, from porkers to bikers and especially in the winter anyone who looks like the michelin man in an
open top (the sympathy wave!)
