So I guess this is it then? All of us talking about building and or driving our cars, but none of us ever seeing the guy (or girl) on the other end of this screen. No mention of any formalized get together, and no one stepping up and saying that they intend to go to one.
For the 500 plus members that populate the Fox section alone, I think that is pretty pitiful.
You go over to SEFB, and that site is buzzing like a hive over the anticipated launch of Mustang Week next week,... w/ over 100 members alone coming from as far away as 8-9 hours committing to club functions get togethers, and activities.
but here it's................................................................................................................................
The Hotrod power tour went by on here w/o even as much as a hiccup.
Several NMRA events gone by w/ the same lack of interest.
Even when there is a announcement of a "thing" (i.e. Carlisle) the threads dies a horrible, lonely death after being kept alive for a couple of days by the two or three attendees from this site that went there.
Who here actually "drives" your cars farther than one tank of gas can get you?
What's the point of building a 500 whp (or more) combo, if the end result is a car that is so unreliable/uncomfortable/un economical to drive it means that a 50 mile round trip is the extent of what you relegate your car to.
"Yeah, it goes really fast,.... but only in a straight line, and not a very long straight line at that."
I for one intend to go to the last 2.5 days of the week long event in Myrtle Beach. I did after all build the car for things like this. ( As well as the local cruise ins and getting groceries)
Anybody else?
This place is like the movie "Groundhog day". Every day, exactly the same questions that were asked the month/week/day before, w/ only the occasional "cool build thread" ( you know who you are) update to keep people from shooting themselves in the head.
I think it's actually more fun to drive the car than to sit here and write about it.
But maybe it's just me.
