10 years... THANK YOU!

Post by Lonestar »

Just realized that today is one day after our first anniversary ("our" being RC10talk and myself :lol: )

Before I joined here I had only ever an RC10 in my hands a few times (we're in western Europe, remember?), I was mostly focused on Japanese vintage brands although I was racing AE cars both on- and off-road. Now I probably have, what, twenty RC10's, maybe (in various state of finalization or decay, it depends)?

I've talked to people from all around the world... I've shipped stuff around the world, mostly without issues (except that ProXRT, eh, Bully?!? :lol: ) - I've bought parts and cars from all over the world. Heck, I've received FREE parts from a few parts of the world, too!!!

I've spent countless hours reading, posting text, pics (grrrr @ photobucket!), exchanging PM's... This forum's been an integral part of my life all the time. At its heyday, the BST section would burst with FS and WTB threads... I would check every ten minutes :lol: (and sometimes buy every ten minutes, too :roll: )

Anyways... thanks all for the great decade - looking forward to at least another couple! Thanks Bill, Jason, Jim, Temple, Rod, Todd, Jeff, and all the others... Thanks Lowgear for ensuring the legend continues :)

Rock on, RC10talk!

Congrats on 10 years, I started lurking here a few months before I finally got up enough nerve to finally join so I will hit my 10 year anniversary early in Jan 2018. I think it has been a great ride for both of us and I agree with you that we have interacted with people from all parts of the world we would never of had the opportunity to if it weren't for RC10talk.com.
