Introducing the 996Outpost founding members user group
Introducing the 996Outpost founding members user group
In a shameless effort to start driving site interest - because it's been like 22 hours - I'll be rolling out a new user group called "Site Founders" or something less dorky for the first 100 folks who sign up. Assuming this turd actually floats at some point, you losers who are already here should get some kind of recognition. It'll be like a badge of dubious honor, like that first chick you scored with in high school when neither of you walked away proud.
Thoughts for names, ideally centered in the PG-13<==>R continuum rather than the NC17<==>XXX spectrum?

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.
Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

Hmm, a name befitting an august group of car guys . . .
How's about "The kcattorneys"? Has a nice "pompous a-hole" ring to it. Don't forget that the key to a successful Porsche website is having self-important douchebags running it.

Re: Introducing the 996Outpost founding members user group
Hey, if we want this site to do well, I'd strongly suggest that all of us start adding content that will be useful to new members. I don't think this site will flourish on just our wit and humor - there does need to be useful content.
I would start with adding DIY articles to the "Toolbaggery" forum. I just submitted an ignition switch DIY article. Can we all start posting DIYs? No need to reinvent the wheel here - I'd start with the most popular DIYs listed on the other sites and create articles based on those. Not saying to go as far as a "copy and paste", but you can certainly modify those other DIYs to quickly get them posted here on this site.

Absolutely agree. Please post original content - I don't want to start getting C&D demands from Voldemortlist.

Hurdi said he is retiring as he sold all his P-cars besides exactly what kind of flavor are you looking for?
