Read the sticky in the lounge.
I'll get through as much as I can this weekend. |

Someone go get me the pic in his sig and his avatar. Or just links. PM them to me, and I'll make it happen. I had the task of modifying his profile for them, and would be proud to do it again. I still carry his stickers on my windows of both cars, and still have spares. He is the ONLY member of BC t... |

We're just over half done with the emailings. We'll take that into account for the next batches.
FYI, the only way a spammer could nail it is if there was a spammer in the email list to begin with, which I find hard to believe. ;) But for privacy, we will use the BCC field when we get back to it. |

Notice we got through all the NON-Staff folks on the first couple pages? That's before the floodgates opened. I have all the numbers, and plan to begin working my way through the list this weekend. It's a manual case-by-case data entry, but it'll happen. All the ranks are set to AUTOMATICALLY update... |

My HUD is within 1mph of my GPS over 140. ;)
Yes, aero drag plays a huge factor the faster you go. Weight of the car and hp/tq/gearing mean less and less the faster you go, and it's a logarithmic function. |

For the record, PTD grossly misrepresented the statistics of the site, not to mention the ad revenue. That's a joke. He hasn't even had the ads up for 2 weeks!
Someone email a link to this topic to the buyer before someone else gets duped. |

156 and I backed out (about 3 years ago on an old closed desert highway in Eastern OR). My a$$hat tore a piece of leather off my seat when I got out from over-pucker syndrome. I didn't have great tires then. I presume the car is capable of more now (talking about the green care in my signature), but... |

Thanks, TWM. The perfect lead-in to the lock. Time to put the past behind us and move back to where we should be. When we catch our breath, we have 4700 more emails to send out. We got just over half. Some on the list are very newly joined members that have not posted yet, and they need to know wher... |

Read the replies of oldschool67 over there.
Yes, that's me. Read all my recent posts. LET IT GO. It's dead. The only posts that keep the average at the 2005 levels are the bitch posts!
PTD killed the SITE. We have the CLUB. Let it go. |

I posted this here for PTD and the new site owner to be able to see. We did this for reasons most of you didn't even SEE. Yes, it's far worse than what you saw. BC is done. STOP POSTING over there, and let it sink. We made a decision as a team based on what we thought was best for the club and it's ... |

We saw this coming. By WE I mean the entire Staff. Just in case our instincts were right, we started putting a plan into effect 2 months ago, including purchasing this domain name. We were determined to have a 'failsafe' in case things went from bad to worse. They did, so untold hours of work in the... |

I did it. TWICE. Bad results both times. Shave a flat on each side of the throttle shaft to decrease cross-sectional area, and clean up the bore a bit. Don't muck with the MAF support or the area where the throttle plate seals. |

Post counts and ranks will be adjusted when we have time (big job to do here still). As you can see we've done the first couple pages of the memberlist (other than staff) already.
Your posts are not our property. We cannot legally move them. But YOU can. |
