• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Do you know where your "Bars" come from?

    I sure don't. Where on the motor is the temp taken that reads out as "Bars" on the screen indicating relative engine heat? What is your "normal" bar count? There is a thermostat on the motor - why dosen't it regulate the heat like our cars so. The car warms up to temp, then stays there. The...
