This is my last post in this thread. It's going nowhere fast. If you have any other ditribe you wish to pass on to me please send it in a PM.
Jealousy will get you know where in life except maybe help you on your criticizing skills.
Jealousy?
What would I be jealous of? I have a perfectly good 03 Cobra myself and your times could be replicated with the same mods and some practice. Again, 440 RWHP + 3155lbs + SRA + sticky tires = low 11's. I don't get it? What's there to be jealous of?
And for your information and maybe you can tell me why if you are so helpful. I used to be under the name Almo with plenty of posts here and I don't know what happened to my account. Hence signing back up as BigAlMo.
There was a server crash a long time ago. I suspect your original account may have gotten dumped or deleted as a result. The user name Almo is not currently in use so why not sign up for it and we'll combine the two accounts?
If I recall right, I first hit Stangnet when it was a link forum. Hmmm, wonder if you have been around the boards that long.
Don't know. Is that supposed to be some sort of special accomplishment being around back then?
I did start using the internet back when a BBS could only be accessed by one user at a time and the data transfer rates were 300BPS! Does that count for anything?
As a moderator you sure do a great job pushing people away. Then again, that is probably why this board isn't as active as others.
Yes... I also do a good job of filling in missing tech data, helping n00bs, and deleting SPAM, but my work goes unnoticed and without much recognition.... *heavy sigh* As for Stangnet not being active...
. 125,818 users, 248,633 threads, and 2,591,853 posts. Move along people nothing to see here but a dead forum.
Since you feel the reason you’re hitting on me and my car is to let others know what is done to it… well champ, there is no secret about my car as I have expressed in every way exact details about it. Hence why I mentioned it prior about the details residing on other forums.
Again that doesn't do much for our users who don't patronize your other forum where all this info is posted. Hell you and your friends weren't even kind enough to post a link to it for Christ's sake.
Also, you act like I have done this for myself only. I got news for you, I did it for the Cobra community to show that (this and a few more things) someone taking my lane can do what I have. Lou of PA first showed this and it gave me something to push after as a goal and to prove to the other community what our cars are capable of doing. People like you don't see it that way until it has to be pointed out. All you seem to care about from the two thread you have posted in is to let me have it from all angles. Also, you can cut the "solo I am a one team player BS" because my attitude isn't anywhere near this type personality retreat.
You see you're absolutely wrong here. I only want to set the record straight ensuring the people who read these posts about your records understand the full spectrum of your cars modifications. It's really that simple Almo, stop making it out to be anything more. As for you doing this all for the greater good of the Cobra community... I would think if that were truly the case we would have seen more posts from you here on Stangnet outlining your progress from start to finish as it happened. I guess in your world the Cobra community only exists on two or three boards.
This is my second Cobra by the way, already had a 2004 KB Cobra with all the mods.
And you tell us this with a rolled eye smiley why? Are you trying to show how superior you are? LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME! Bad form Jack, bad form.
Also, I would have gladly list and define my mods so all would know and I usually do but since you were so quick to give me and my car **** from the start, even in the last thread, I am not going to waste my time trying to help the board members when you give me **** from the start. It is you that has me and most likely others not wanting to help with how you treat people. Sorry not my cup of tea. I will stick with being an Admin/Mod on a few boards and choose the boards I want to deal with and help from how it treats me.
Never gave you chit there Almo, only stated the facts about your car is all.
Lastly, it is people like you that give me the drive to push on and do better than I already have.
Good for you Almo! I look forward to reading about your faster times.
By the way and before I forget... my car will go quicker on stock boost and I will get it there. I would tell anyone I meet that talks about running my time. Lou's Cobra out of PA is much more impressive than mine was. Being that his weighed in around 300 pounds more than mine did when he ran a 11.16 but he also had a drag setup when I was only running a street setup on my car when I ran 11.01.
Gee.... too bad you won't contribute to our SVT Tech forum. I'd honestly like to hear what the differences are between Lou's drag setup and your street set up.
Hahaha... you're a little behind times are you. People have done what I have long before I tried it. Try like two years ago!!! They just didn't go through their vehicles taking weight out like I did as it takes a lot of time to go through and do what I did and I can see why people don't care to go that far.
That's my whole point! There currently isn't another 03/04 Cobra out there that weighs 3155 with driver, has a SRA, and still runs stock boost. Makes it hard to compare your accomplishments with someone in a similarly modified Cobra.
By the way since you said what you did about the car is suppose to run what it is. So lets hear it from you. What have you run at the track with your numbers in you Cobra.
Me? Hell I've never run better than a 12.5@113 and that was at 3915lbs with just a CAI & cat-back. Then again I'm not the one sporting the forum sig claiming to be the worlds fastest either.
Look Almo, I tried to give you props from the beginning on your times. All I wanted to ensure along with those props was that our users who don't frequent all the other sites understood that your stock-boosted Cobra has more than a couple weight reduction mods and is running a straight axle. You and the people who posted on your behalf left out some important facts in the equation and expected our user community to fill in the blanks by having to go search through other un-named forums. Unfortunately you and your friends get all butt hurt when I inform people of these facts and I don't bow down in praise like so many other forum users do on the other boards.
Again, congratulations on your great times and I hope to see you run even faster. May I suggest you look into getting rid of that T-56 and go with a built A/T and a good converter. I'm sure the right setup would shave another tenth or more off your 60-foot times and get you into the tens.
Good luck and god speed on your quest for a stock-boosted 10.
U.M.
to your ET's.
