R.I.P. Old Forum
So long, old forum. Strike another match, go start anew
And it's all over now, Baby Blue. In the memory of the old forum, I'd like to sing this song by Bob Dylan:
"You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last.
But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast.
Yonder stands your orphan with his gun,
Crying like a fire in the sun.
Look out the saints are comin' through
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.
Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
The empty-handed painter from your streets
Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets.
This sky, too, is folding under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home.
All your reindeer armies, are all going home.
The lover who just walked out your door
Has taken all his blankets from the floor.
The carpet, too, is moving under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
The vagabond who's rapping at your door
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore.
Strike another match, go start anew
And it's all over now, Baby Blue."I could really use a fish right now

The "old forum" served us well.
It was home to many laughs & some heated battles.
We shared the highs & lows of racing along with a bit of our private lives.
I surmise that a forum is the sum of it's members.
As everyone finds their way back, the fun will continue in a new package.2008 ESPN Stockcar Challenge MSF Champion :D

Eye, 'twas a good one and a half years for me and the beloved forum. I thought I'd give you a little song recital... Here we go!
The old forum, always there
When you wanted to say something
That was just and fair (or if you're schmenke, an innuendo will do)
Motorsport, football, cats and phones
It was all there
Except for a thread about bones...
Insults would fly
Rolleyes smileys would come by the bucket full
But they'd kiss and make up, even though they ended up arguing again in the next religious topic, why?
So, in conclusion I have this to say
The old forum we will miss
But bring on the new day
Of VB...
Thank you and goodnight!

great, new forums (well, sorta), if only the mods would get with the times now as well :
I am anaspeptic, pharismotic, even compunctuous to have caused you such pericombobulation.

I must say I far prefered the old forum setup. This one is just far too...common
"But it aint how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done." Rocky.
Tänak got 20 points closer to Evans, but as the main reason was a bad rally for Evans, I would say that Evans lost 20 points to Tänak, not Tänak gained. The point is, if the other one does not...
