None of the usual suspects showed up to my bore scoring prevention thread and got it shut down like I was expecting. In fact I had placed bets on how soon it was going to be deep sixed by those zealous mods lol anyhow, glad to see a new corner of the interwebs has been carved out for us motley 996 peoples!

Rennlist 996 lurker here. I really enjoyed the antics over there and have missed it the last month or so. Glad to see it has a new home!

It is good to see this place exists. The RL mods are over the top and that has really spoiled the camaraderie over there.

Thanks for getting this started Schnelly......can one of the bylaws be that tatas are allowed and proud? :shock:

Actually, I'd prefer to keep things relatively tame - not because I'm a prude, but because the Internet has plenty of T&A already.

Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.
