Those "in the know," know exactly what they are.
Those who don't...have to keep explaining it.

Wow, how prophetic.
Actually, those in the know have a World Registry and read it. Others stick to dogmatic opinion based upon their own bias.
BTW stay on topic Mr. Moderator.

Absolutely on topic. ..like every one you start.

Isn't this about the season when you get real mad and go away for a long time?

Just curious. No need to reply.

Your curious but there is no need to reply?

Couple corrections. I don't start topics on the " real" issue. More misinformation at your hand.

Second. Whether someone here considers the Contnuation series a "real" Cobra has nothing to do with the thred topic. It slipped into that subject again not at my hand.

And about me going away...it wasn't because I was mad, it was more like disgusted at the juvinile personal attacks about which you as a moderator did nothing. Why was I attacked? Because I was saying the same thing way back then (2000-2001) about the Shelby that SAAC states in there new World Registry of Cobras and GT40s.

And putting my attorney hat on here if you keep saying on this forum that my position on the new Continuation Series is wrong and you are an officer being on the board of directors of SAAC and as I recall on the SAAC Board of Directors at the time the Registry was being put together for publication and acknowledged as one of the contributors to the Registry and the SAAC Registry states what I keep stating about the Shelby sounds like maybe there is misinformation/errors in the Registry about the Continuation series? Clearly could be construed this way. If so, sounds like refunds or at least some credit should be due for all those who spent good money on the Registry. How much were they a pop? How many were sold? Gee, even worse, that book also in part was/is sold as tool and as guide to help people discern and decide what to buy and weed out the "fakes" from the real/"authentic". It is supposed to help give people confidence in what they buy and own. It also help provides pride in ownership and confidence that you own what they describe you own. However, if you are right and the Registry is wrong how many people have been mislead by the information in that Registry about the Continuation series and overpaid by thousands for a "replica" as opposed to a genuine/authentic Cobra? You consistently undermine the Registry on this issue. It is not fair to SAAC nor to the owners of these cars especially those that have have joined SAAC paying good money and purchased the Registry with good money.

Hmmm..... your repeated position the Continuation Cobras... very interesting and especially troubling since you are "in the know". Is SAAC in the "know" too or are you keeping this to yourself?

Clearly your broken record comments here on this public forum and the Worlds "largest" Cobra site are clearly inconsistent with your organizations Registry seem particularly damaging to the Registry to me and seem to undermine it. When an officer of SAAC says what you say it is troubling. I don't care about the rest of the peanut galleries' opinions but because of your position with SAAC it is troubling.

And maybe if your statements just represent your own personal opinion (to which you are clearly entitled) and considering your position at SAAC or previous position at SAAC perhaps you should just keep it to yourself. It really does not look good. By their nature your statement do undermine the Registry not only as to Continuation Cobras but the other new Shelbys, Kirkhams and licensed Safir GT40s.

I agree with SAACs position wholeheartedly and always have agreed. In fact I was ahead of them in the position. They are correct and published it so. We all know they are not originals. No one is trying to pass them off as such. But perhaps you should stop undercutting SAAC which clearly is not helpful to SAAC. Perhaps as an officer/board member at SAAC or former member and Registry contributor it would be better to stand behind what they have said and published or at least keep quiet.

Anytime those here don't want me I have no problem not coming back. Don't need this forum. I participate in others where there are no issues or petty jealousies.

Hey, you have a nice day Ron.

Just to help you with protocol..

When I sign a post as "ClubCobra Moderator," I have posted in that manner, speaking as a moderator, for moderation purposes.

When I sign correspondence "SAAC National Director," I do so speaking in that capacity, on behalf of the Club.

When I don't sign a post, I am speaking simply as an enthusiast here.

The rest of what you said was just pap.

Oh, Ok. That makes it all better now. Putting your "protocol" aside perhaps, just perhaps you should think about what I have said. Have no confidence that you will but...

You should also perhaps resign as an officer of SAAC and "National Director" since you apparently don't agree with or belieeve in what SAAC says and has published and worse continue to make your position known on the "Worlds largest Cobra" site.

Put simply, your position is simply crap and BS and a misdeed as to SAAC and the Registry which clearly undermines their official position and the World Registry. So your position is different when you put on your "SAAC National Director's hat"???? What a crock. Maybe I'll renew my membership (which I let lapse in part because of a particular SAAC officers very public and demeaning comments about the Continuation Cobras) and raise that issue with the Board.

Patrick: Yes, you are right my friend. I am going to try and put new gas in and skip the Marvel Mystery oil this time. I think it may be cutting the Octane too much. Then I will hit the air bleeds.
