ya know.... when I first contracted the disease the only two cars in the running were GTD's and ERA's. Damn near all the posts on the old forum were GTD stuff. Then RF came along. Before the "event" most of the new stuff was RF stuff. Others came along GT40 NZ, CAV (well they were there at the beginning and then they were not and then they came back.... or something like that) and others.

The big news for a while was the "New" SPF 40 and every day somebody had a line on when they were going to be ready. I really like to follow the blood lines of ol Betty so I always read the English threads and the space-frame car build logs. Some really cutting edge stuff going on there. Then there's ALL the gearbox stuff. Nothing like a 500ft/lb capable trans axle to get me hot.

Now a lot of people are excited about their new hobby building RCR cars.

The point is this is nothing new. NEW cool toys get peoples attention, makes them happy and they want to share their happiness.

What I want to know is where are all the babes? Gotta be some GT40 babes!

Hell it could be a lot worse! We could all be fired up about high output batteries in our hybrid's. geese....... smile more. Its good for ya.

How's that for a ramble?
