Perhaps you are just having a bad day. I know I'm about to, by posting this, but feel it must be said.

True Patrick does stir the pot a little, and can tend to put some offside with his dry sarcastic nature, but in reality it's totally harmless.

Further I think you'll find that Patrick has assisted more people & has more posts resolving member's issues than the four of us have total posts combined.

I think the moderators have done well to keep him on board

Kayakjack - its easy to take a few posts (quotes) out of context to justify ones argument.
Eg1:
Post #11
Super Performance VS Backdraft
Patrick clearly returning fire on an in house club joke about his 2 roll bars...

Eg2:
Post #30
SOHC Kirkham
When in context, I read it as Patrick encouraging the purchase of an SPF as a good idea.

Enjoy your day fellas

I wish I was able to share your sentiment.

Patrick is not totally harmless. He means harm. Our love of these cars is enhanced by our sharing of information and helping each other in a positive way with issues that arise. Patrick has an ax to grind. He sometimes displays it in a humorous manner. Sometimes it is raw.

I own a Superformance. I don't mind discussion of Superformance or any other brand. That is one of the reasons we are here. But his constant bashing of Superformance grates on more people than those who speak up about it. It got him banned from the Superformance subforum, but that has not stopped him.

In this thread, all of his prattle about wanting to know the price of a Superformance is laughable. Now that he knows it, do you think he is ringing up a dealer to discuss purchase? He is just trying to make trouble.

As I said in my previous post, he should be banned from Club Cobra. He was banned from any participation in the Superformance subforum. He continued to post there. That is reason enough. That is also why I said his continued participation reflects on the moderators.

I am not having a bad day. I trust you are not either.

Never thought I'd be sticking up for Pat....
I worked it out a while ago that he only stirs the pot if the pot's stirable. If you don't bite it's all OK.
And "...he means harm..."? Oh, come on please.
Some of us are reading this thread and grinding teeth; others are having a good ol' laugh. Life's too short to to get hung up on a little perceived brand rivalry. There's nothing personal here, really.
Cheers,

Glen,

In this thread's post #37 Patrick questions the customer service of a dealer because he did not post something during the hours Saturday night when most people are asleep. If you do not have good customer service in this business, you have nothing. If there are doubts about your customer service, people who do not know you will not do business with you. New people look to this forum for advice and direction.

I do not think Patrick did that in jest. Stuff like that causes harm. He meant harm.

And it was personal.

I don't share your sentiment. The mods, Jamo and Ron, have tolerance and run an excellent forum. I'm not particularly fond of subjects like politics, guns, Chevy buying back the Volt, etc. on a Cobra forum. And then there other postings that are off-topic, but nice to hear like Brent Lykins having his first baby, etc.

Patrick gives this site some intelligence, personality and humanity. He has also helped me and others with many of his posts like replacing the rear tail lights with LED's or the stupid-looking Third Encounters brake light in his trunk latch. I mean, who really drives a beige Cobra anyway?

So Patrick throws a barb at the SPF. Really? That bothers you? Why? He can throw barbs all day long at Kirkham for not having a manual like the ERA's. What happened to a little tolerance?

The Great Buddha wrote: "'If a person foolishly does me wrong, I will return to him the protection of my boundless love. The more evil that comes from him the more good will go from me. I will always give off only the fragrance of goodness."

Yea, I know. Religion, ugh.

Anyway, that's my opinion. Back to topic, which is the SPF slabside with a base price of $60,900. That's honestly not a bad deal at all. Hmmm.
