Andrew, look in announcements, there was something posted about TDI
series... I shouldn't speculate, but there just might be a VW TDI car or
something in not too distant future. I was watching them on speed I think
for a couple weekends, they look like fun! I dunno.
add that and the ford specs and I dunno not bad... hell I beta'd the dang
rfactor nascar mods part, when there wasn't much there either, early on I
swear so many people think they are entitled to happiness for free, I guess
I was happy that 1/208th of what is around for rfactor now, was all we had
and stuff.
I again remember TV without cable, Am walkie talkies vs cellphones, and a
little bit about 8track stereos. cassettes were so much better but yeah,
CD's in some instances are much better, but it just wasn't out yet and we
were tickled pink back then too!
See you on the track my friend.
