Hi all.
haven't been around much lately (nearly a year), not sure if any of my old friends are still posting - here's hoping.
Been snowed under with my degree work, funny how time seems to disappear when your busy with things. Always mean to visit, but it hasn't quite worked out that way. On top of all that father has been unwell and my concerns have been with him.
Hopefully I can catch up with those of you I know, and those new members who I haven't met yey.
Hope everyone is well

The forums in general have slowed way, way down from the days we couldn't keep track of who was here. I think all the other social media combined with life in general just burns people out and they limit online forum time. Like yourself I go in waves where I just don't find the time and have other life priorities.
Maybe we should start a "Whatever happened to?" thread and test the forum members on how far they remember back. Every now and then one of the longer term people shows up.
Glad to hear all is well.
Good to hear from you..yes it's slow here, I rarely visit even the F1 section thesedays but do keep an eye here....I haven't even watched all the races with the timezones now screwed up for me plus the dull Merc domination.

I will see if I can find it.
It was nice to have fun discussions with people of opposing viewpoints, but seems they have all gone away.Quote:

On the old 7th Gear board and here, I had some run-ins (and some good times) with a fellow named Hoop98. He was a passionate and knowledgeable racer and race fan. We just had a clash of egos from time to time. I don't know what happened to him. But I wish him well, if he's still around.
I get somewhat nostalgic and down when I think about how many of the people that used to post here and other places are no longer among the living... or just don't post anymore. So I'd like to wish peace and good times to all. Like someone once told me, make your peace while you have the chance... it's later than you think.
If I remember correctly. Hoop98 was at the OWR board when it first got started. I haven't been there in a long while now so don't know if he's still active or not.Quote:

Guess you can say that I'm an ex-formula 1 fan.
hey harsha!
maybe next year will be better, it happened to me this year too...
I used to be really into racing on farmland but now I just blow smoke out the window....
I guess I'm an ex-tractor fan :dozey: :arrows: :andrea:
Er mods?

I liked the burnout point. Life is so fast these days people barely have time to attend to their regular business, without spending too much time sitting on forums. I took a new job a year ago. At the old job I had all the comfort one might need in the office but it was time to move on. At my new job the pace is very erratic and even important actions fall through the cracks. Still I enjoy posting here from time to time. The Trump discussion was a good one, although it was a pale shadow of our previous cock fights. I hope those who posted here will hang on for a while so this forum is worth visiting from time to time.
