thats like taking a light fox body with 440rwhp and us being shocked that it runs low 11's.
Jealousy?Jealousy will get you know where in life except maybe help you on your criticizing skills.
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?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.
Don't know. Is that supposed to be some sort of special accomplishment being around back then?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.
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...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.
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.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.
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.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.
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.This is my second Cobra by the way, already had a 2004 KB Cobra with all the mods.
Never gave you chit there Almo, only stated the facts about your car is all.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.
Good for you Almo! I look forward to reading about your faster times.Lastly, it is people like you that give me the drive to push on and do better than I already have.
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.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.
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.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.
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.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.
Uncle Meat said: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.
Well when you threw thatKB Cobra was mentioned to show that I also had a full weight Cobra with a aftermarket blower but as you type it, even this is turned around on me from you stance.
As soon as the search function comes back on-line over there at your favorite forum I'll post a link where you yourself stated it weighed in at 3155 with you in it when you went across the scales. It was in the same thread where you claimed it weighed 3050 with a 1/4 tank of gas. I thought it sounded funny cause that would mean you only weighed 105lbs!?Oh and above all and you saying you're posting facts. Where did you get your facts from because my car has never weighed 3155 with me in it.
Try 3255 to 3260 with me in it.
And my point is the 2 threads we saw over here talking about your stock-boosted low 11's end up being misleading solely BECAUSE your full mod list wasn't posted initially.See, you don't get it either which is fine with me. I am trying to do this stuff step by step without going too crazy and I have kept it posted a few places to keep track of it. I could very easily take a bunch more stuff out of my car to run an easy 10 with it. Again, trying not to go to far and my focal point has been to keep the interior stock looking. Outside of the aftermarket seats, rollbar, and of course the delete kit.
A very important part of that post was left out (SRA) of the initial post and wasn't brought out until you came and clarified it.Even the thread started by 03 I listed in detail what was done at the time I ran the 11.17.
http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=692447&highlight=Almo
Well no loss since you never helped anyone in here (SVT Forums) to begin with. Sorry, but that facts are your full mod list wasn't initially posted along with each new record, but the thread starter expected all of us to know what mods you did have. I didn't give any of you crap until you all started whining that I or others were "Haters" because we didn't immediatelyThis will be my last post, I am not going to go out of my way to help a board when a moderator has given me **** and kept poking me from the start because he feels my I am making my car out to be something it isn't. Again, I have always listed in detail everything done to my car. Have fun, all my stuff is located (ALONG WITH ALL THE OTHER QUICK FASTER TIMES REPORTED IN THE Cobra COMMUNITY) on SVT Performance.

Meat,
Either you are Frank Zappa or you, yourself are a grouppie according to your aviatar!!
Almo has never claimed to be anything than what he is, the prior record was a guy who did lots of weight savings, maybe not quite to the degree of Almo. By your own admission Almo can "row the gears". Your position as a moderator has been comprimised as you have shown yourself as the master of the backhanded compliment in your prior posts.
You know what really sucks? Almo ran a 10.88 at Mason Dixon a few weeks ago, but retracted the post by an SVTperformance poster becuase he wasn't sure that the lights functioned properly-- I and an other cobra owner have reviewed the video several times and we think the time is good, but Almo has a doubt and is not willing to claim it. So your claimed class of one will continue to do what has never been done before (kind of sounds like a class of one doesen't it!!??). You need to step back and evaluate your position, NBA and MLB regs have been under fire recently because they have not been impartial. If you cannot be impartial you should resign your position as a moderator on stangnet for the good of the stang net community. As a side note, I found stangnet a useful fourm for the first few months of cobra ownership, but soon outgrew it. Other forums have far more users and support the modification of the cobra to a far greater degree than stangnet.com does.
By the way where does the name Uncle Meat come from? Did you uncle expose you to his prematurely?
Uncle Meat must have a superiority complex too bad because I have been PM'ed about few not hitting this board solely because of he.....
