If anyone wants to start up a replacement forum for other automotive sites in the same way RCC was founded let me know. I'll be happy to provide assistance.

:dunno: Glad you guys are here and I hope you tell your friends and fellow rotorheads. Between the awesome cars in Rotay Of The Month and the member base I KNOW you'll love this place.

why does that not surprise me... not that any of us can blame IB, I mean, they are a company... and just like any other company, they are looking after their #1 priority, which is the bottom line....

in no way am I saying I support what they did, or how they went about doing it... but it it what I would come to expect of any company of that size, or in that much control, they are concerned about only a very few things...

it seems like those few things did not include much concern for the small guys in the pond that really help the local rotor community, but thats just who they are...

its sucks that it all had to Happen... but at least Kevin, Phil and few others were willing to stick up to them, and create such a small vendor friendly forum... and to you guys... I raise my glass...

If I ever have the pleasure of meeting any of you in person... I'm buying a round or two...

Jon.

Welcome to the Club.

Wow, I'm guessing I chose a good forum to earn my rotary merit badge on. Cheers gents.

Anything that internetbrands has bought has turned to shit. Just look at RX8Club too. The problem is that the cars are getting so cheap to purchase, that it is younger & younger people buying it (mentality is totally diff). Phil (herblenny) has really done the rotary community good by having this Forum.

Welcome to the forum, we're not a huge group over here but there's a lot of knowledge. It's a good atmosphere. Plus from time to time you get live video feeds from the events.

I'm a new member here as well as RX7club, maybe I wasn't registered long enough but RX7club does have some very good archives and has serious people that can help, just ignore the "fuck faces" is the way I do it.
