A new community for ALL 996 enthusiasts...

Post by 5chn3ll » Fri Jan 05, 2018 4:59 pm

After being disheartened by the way that car BB/forum sites have been going, I'm tossing my hat - and a few dollars - into the ring. I'd like to see a thriving, fun community, much like the 996 Forum on another site that shall remain unnamed used to be.

I hope you'll sign up, come back, contribute, and be part of building a new community of 996 enthusiasts.

Now wait a god damned minute!

In the other thread you said we had to PM you if we wanted to be a mod (note: I sent you a PM about giving you money and you haven't responded to that! :? ), yet here you hand it out for nothing?

I thought we were trying to get away from capriciously enforced rules???

No, no - just other peoples' capriciously enforced rules.

Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
