Stangbangerz seniority list

[USMCPONY]

I noticed allot of talk about the older members not posting anymore. That got me thinking. I've been a member for a long time and even I don't know half the of the original members. Is there a way we can get a seniority list of maybe the first 50 or so members? Just thought it would be nice to know who the very first active member are/was. We all know who started stangbangerz but who else kept it alive for us today. Just looking for a little piece of Stangbangerz history.

Great idea.

I started off as a member of the Cincy Speed Message board and once Stangbangerz was created I migrated over here. Ive had a ton of good times since then and hope to have some more. I remember the first Cincy Speed dyno day with the mobile dyno outside. I'm not sure where I'm at as far as member number but I suspect its pretty high up.

Does anyone still have the archive of the old message board?

[denial]

I have been here since April 2004. Heard about it from a friend. I don't post much and never have. I enjoy reading more than posting. I have met tons of people on here though and made some friends.

[Gearhead]

I think this was the first version of the board back to 2002 ??

I've been here since Dec. '04, was recommended to the site by AJ McKean, known as "Mach U" but he and his wife moved to New Zealand and he doesn't get on here anymore.... but let's see, I've hung out with and or met Vinny5oh, Paul408notch, Mr. Moontang, Maximus, Dedpedal, Drivermod, Timido, Pops Fun, 89notch, Plated, LR 01 Cobra... who turned into 08 Vette, uhhh.... many many more.... including the newer folks that I've met in the past few years that aren't "old members".

And I work with "slow9023"... he hasn't logged on in ages!

[Bluecrew07]

Mr. Moontang recruited me in 2005

[stangman_5]

Vinny, Jesse, and a few others got me to join in 06. I just dont post much because I never keep a stang long enough :lol:.

[Mr.Moontang]

2/17/2004 is when I joined up...wow that was forever ago!

[Buckeye]

posting to see what my join date was
EDIT: hmm 05

Some of orginals include Craig Newport, Paul Meredith, Tim Duncan, Jeff Lange, Kevin Bauer, etc.

I joined in the Summer of 2002 after following a link that Matt Williams (Black Hole) posted on Cincinnati Street Racing. This was right before the Cincy Speed Dyno Day, and Vinny convinced me to bring my roadrace car out to the dyno day. I met a ton of cool people and it's pretty much sent my life into a downward spiral for the last decade. :D

That's the truth ya lil copycatting hooker!





And wow..... I didn't put 2 and 2 together before.... but this is the 10th Anniversary of SBZ!

...sending tshirt idea to Rick...

Go to members list then click on join date. It lists members chronologically in order of join date. Also, each post has join date in upper right corner. Altho I think these dates reflect when Vinny upgraded to the V board, as I think I joined in 2002.

[beefcake]

one of the originals and try to come by almost every day still

It's interesting how many of the OG Bangerz, even if they don't post much anymore, have still logged in at least once in the last 30 days.

OG??? What means OG?

Old guys?

Looks like I'm 110. But I was back on the tripod boards. I joined when Ben sent me a message on stangnet.

[mustangjon]

Im 2314 lol we've had over 4k members on this forum alone

[Rick93coupe]

There was a shit load of us in Feb 04, I don't even remember how I heard about the site to be honest. Seems like I'm here just about everyday though, lol.

[Rick93coupe]

OG??? What means OG?

[cstreu1026]

I joined the old board in 2003 I think.

[Timido]

04 is when the board was changed. I think Stangbangerz was started in 2001.

[Rick93coupe]

That makes more sense, I thought there was a period of time when all my posts were lost but it's been so far back I can't remember anymore.

[bangingears]

I joined the new board in 7-04 also, although I do remember the old black boards. I found on about bangerz in 01-02ish by vinny pulling me over when his GT was black and just had trick flows put on.

[Crucial]

been a member since 02-24-2004.

didnt sign up for a while because i didnt have a mustang, but i was on the cincy speed forums and when these forums opened up those died down .. so i couldnt resist the fun so here i am :cool1::cool1:

[redfirepearlgt]

What...what was that? Who's been here the longest????
I think I smell BEN-GAY in the air! LOL!!!

[89notch]

2-8-04 is when Vinny switched the board over. Up until then we were all on the tripod board. Damn I've spent a lot of my time on this board the last 10 years.

I remember that show. Summer '04. I wasn't a 'banger yet, and was still driving my yellow '77 Mustang II 4 cylinder at the time. I was on my way to work around 12 and revved it up at you guys... even though I had absolutely no clue who any of you were....

[Mista Bone]

2-10-2004, don't remember if I was on the old board, but likely was.

Been on the interwebs daily since late 1995 with WebTV. A Honda magazine that came out this month did an article about the Legends of Honda, basiccally the people that have been around since the beginning. The forum creator, I bought a JBL Sub from him and then was invited to the new forum which was ran on university servers.

Is there a way we can get a seniority list of maybe the first 50 or so members? We started way back in 2004.

Here's your Seniority list....

I'm fairly certain Stangbangerz was around prior to 2004. I met Vinny, through the Dedpedal gang at the Columbus NMRA race, which was in May 2002. It wasn't too long after that that Vinny e-mailed me, asking me to join Stangbangerz.

[DeckerEnt]

Nov of 2004 for me!!!! Almost 7000 posts. Still get on here about every day!!!

[2Kblacksleeper]

I'm # 758.,

I thought it would be lower? It seems like I've been here forever.
I joined back when I had my 2000 Lightning.

I'm fairly certain Stangbangerz was around prior to 2004.Actually, you're right.

IIRC, there was another forum template before this one.

How's it going Rich ?

The first SBZ cruise-in was at Hooter's in Springfield in March 2002. Those are the photos that I posted earlier.

According to Whois.com (http://www.whois.com/whois/stangbangerz.com), Vinny originally registered the domain name in December 10, 2001.

Hmm...they show up fine for me. I just hotlinked them from the old tripod site.

[Jeff88coupe]

Most of the old crew started out on Craig's cincy speed forum board. Then when vinny started the first version of SBZ on the tripod site we just all migrated there and Craig let his forum die. 01-02ish.

[wildstang89]

09/07/2004 hmmmm didn't realize I've been a member that long. lol

[Kwik92GT]

Met Vinny in about March of '02 and joined the old board then, was a member of the old Cincy Speed board too. Remember seeing some crazy burnouts behind/beside Craig's old shop. Was also a member of the Middletucky board if anyone remembers that one. :lol:

[9cobra4]

I met Vinny at dyno day back in 05(I was 16 at the time), we talked about my car, guessed what we thought it would make, then he gave me some stickers and told me to join the site.

That show was badass...LOL..remember the whiney TSMC saying "we've been Stangbanged"!! We rolled in and took their most registered from one club prize. I believe there was some cash involved too??

Anywho, May of 2004...Joe Palmer let me this way, from way back in the Frisches on 32 days.

[9cobra4]

You original guys remember that "waylon" guy? Haha I don't mean to take the thread off track, but I figured the OG's would get a laugh out of it.

[Dipstick]

02/09/2004 Here after attending a cruise in in the middle of a snow storm lol. It was a Cincy street team cruise in, when I found out about Stangbangerz! I still wear the original t-shirt.

[Black Horse]

My "official" join date was Feb. of 2004. By a strange twist of fate my path crossed with Vinny, even with the circumstances he welcomed me. Even thou I was a corner-carver type, he thought there was a place for it here and whipped up the unique forum subject.

[Stangman]

I found myself going thru the first 15 pages of the members list in order by join date seeing who I recognized that doesn't log on any more.... lotsa names out there :(

[85_SS_302_Coupe]

I believe i originally joined around November '03 or so.

[SMOKE]

Member since July 2004 (#227) - Don't have a Mustang anymore but still check in on things from time to time.

[04 Venom]

Here since early 2004.

[Chunk94GT]

Says I'm #83. I have been around since Jun 03 was on the tripod board. I know it was 03, thats when I graduated high school and bought my Mustang. But it could of been earlier then that, cause I remember going on the first GAC to Wright Patt when I was still in high school meet Vinny, Craig, and many others for the first time. Ended up on here from NKYFBA guys told me about it, and Tardy, when he had his white coupe. Took me to tri state for the first time.

[RACEME]

I have been here since the old cincy speed board too. It makes me want to go cabrewing again. Your not an OG unless you know who the mud people are!

[Timido]

R get the pirate flag!

[Blackout]

There has been allot of members over the years that have left for various reasons. I don't know if any of you remember the Middletucky days but hats when I started getting involved in the forums.

I do believe that if there are members that havnt posted in 5+ years should probably be deleted.

[Jeff88coupe]

[winner70ta]

Signed up at the end of Jan. '05. Glad that I got to meet Vinny. I really liked those early Spring and Fall cruises and the burnouts. Not saying that those were the smartest or safest things to do but they were fun!

[Katmandu]

Signed up at the end of Jan. '05. Yea, but we consider you one of us old timers! :lol:

A couple of the young cocky (still wet behind the ears) bucks around here like to bust on us about our chronological ages but that's ALL it is.......Chronological! :>)

I still remember chasing you and Phil in your Bosses on down to that car show in Cincy way back when! :rockon:

BTW, I just found a few old pics of that 69 Mach I I bought off Phil! I've got to scan them and upload them ASAP.

Same here and I still don't have any blue oval in my driveway but I still like Mustangs and I'm just a gear head that likes to help others out if I can. I was on the old Tripod site and Somehow I missed the move and months later I rejoined this site.

[bestracing]

I forgot to add that I remeber the whole 2002 Dyno Day real well and had a great time. The best part was Craig N. going head to head with someone :lol:

What is interesting to note, that of the first 35-40 people that joined, all but a couple have posted in the last couple of months.....whoever says the old timers don't post on here anymore is full of shit. Founding members are still involved. Maybe they don't psot every five minutes like they used to, but they are still here. Now to find Higgy and get Jamie back from the darkside! :coo1:;)
