In the world of movie car replicas, some are bad, some are good and some are simply outstanding.
This guy has more money than sense (note the Chevy Cheetah in his garage). This is no fiero based kit car, the frame is monocoque, the suspension is fully independent race suspension with brembos all around.
Sure, he likely could have fed Africa for a year with what this thing cost to design and build, but, well he didn't. Anyway, I thought it was an amazing cage!

If you cannot Debauch because you get an IP blacklist error, try Debauching again time. It may work immediately, it may take a few attempts. It will work eventually, I don't think I had to click debauch more than three times. Someone is overzealous at our hosting company, but only on the first couple of attempts.
If you have problems logging in, posting, or doing anything else, please get in touch.
You know the email (if you don't, see in the registration info below), you know where to find the Administerrerrerr on the Midget Circus.
Some unpleasant miscreant was firing incessant database queries at our server, which forced the Legal Department of our hosting company, via their Abuse subdivision, to shut us down. No I have none.
All I can do it button the hatches, and tighten up a few things. Such as time limits on how long you may take to compose a post and hit Debauch! As of 24/01/10, I've set that at 30 minutes for now.
To restrict further overloads, any unregistered users had to be locked out.
How do we know who is or isn't an unregistered user?
By forcing anyone who wants in to Log In.
Is that annoying?
Yes. But there's only so much the Administerrerrerr can do to keep this place running.
Again, if you have any problems: get in touch.

First fix:
Because the board got shutdown again because of a load of database, I had to fettle with the settings again.
As part of that, the server no longer stores what topics you have or haven't read.
IT IS STILL RECORDED!
But now, that information lives in a delicious cookie, rather than the forum database.
Upside: this should reduce the load of database.
Downside: if you use multiple devices to access the board, or you reject delicious cookies, you won't always have that information cookie. But the New Posts feature should take care of that.
PLEASE NOTIFY THE ADMINISTERRERRERR ABOUT ANY PROBLEMS!
- open the menu at the top
- hit New Posts to see what's actually new and browse the new stuff from there
- go back to the Forum Index
- open the menu at the top again
- click Mark forums read
this will zero the unread anything for you, so you can strive forth into the exciting world of the new cookie thing.

Oh, the sport of kings.
So is he going to Bonneville with it or what?
I perused the site and it seems he's got plenty of dough but seems kind of short on practical experience. He's obviously into whatever it is he does but seems kind of, well, like a rich slacker who wants to go right to F1 racing without jumping through all the other hoops.

But judging from all the crap those ^ guys dish out at him, I can't help from having a little bit of cheering for the underdog.

Honestly, not one of my favorite designs. I really did like the utilitarian design of the Tumbler.
As loud as that thing is, what kind of stereo and speakers do you think he has in there?
