Well spoken,Bob!!





but the OP wasn't an op-ed piece, it was just an ad for another site, full of folks much better and smarter than those found here. Just like the OP insinuated.




There is a wealth of knowledge on most all sites,the internet has opened a door to the world for all to share.Better and smarter is an opinion,they or anyone can be "better and smarter" in their respective area of knowledge,but "no one of us is smarter than all of us"
Maybe the OP should have clarified his statememt or used a better and smarter choise of words to deliver his message.

I'm an old grey beard and am stuck in the 60's and 70's but use the modern advancements in technology to make the old junk quicker. I love Moparts and any other Mopar related site. Moparts and site like it only spur me on. The wealth of talent and information avalible, and the people here willing to share it is simply amazing. Dave

Ladies and Gentalmen,

I have been to most,if not all the Mopar forms within the Internet pool of Blah,Blah Blah. All seem to have the one thing in common "MOPAR".

As a Mopar inthusist,racer,lover of all Mopar, I question myself and you to see if we are stuck are in the stoneage. With many racers,car buff's that are older than dirt(50+),but feel as if they are twenty still, talking about the same crap, thier ego or who has the fastest car,or the smallest tire.

Are you stuck in the 60,70,80,90,20+ with the type of car you have, or is the internet forms you are on dictating your opinion of the stoneage Mopar.
What form do you associate with the most?

I like in order of likeness. fastmopar,moparts,bullet,Abody,




Are you all mad that I called us older than dirt? I get alot of information from this forum and others. Heck I have been called a young gun in the other forums out thier. that's why I asked the ? I'm stuck in the 60,70 era. Choice of words I barely finished collage.

they did not only invent the wheel ,they invented the use of logs to roll big rocks on and that was long before the wheel

experience dating back to the stoneage with a capability to use new tech is the way forward and im pretty sure both of these gentlemen mentioned knows a few things about that concept

True dinosaur here! Still love the mid sixties, mid seventies scene, which is I am still crazy over NSS racing. Stuck in the stone age, I guess.

My dear friend BG called me a dinosaur once..He's right, and I'm not sorry.

Same here as yes I am stuck in the 60's and 70's. It might be because I think they were the best years ever for a muscle car drag racing nut like me. I am old enough (mid 50's) and I still love this hobby. But I have to live within my budget which is not very big. I love the older (60's & 70's) Nostalgia door cars like NSS the best. Am I fast ?? All I wanted was a 10 second real street car that has the NSS look so maybe one day I can run an NSS class but still drive it on the street. Thats fast enough for me. Yes thats what I like and I really dont care who likes me for it and who dont as the only one I need to impress is myself. But I do like good friends and this hobby is full of them. Ron

i'm just a work-a-day guy ( oh yea, i just remembered i'm retired) with a limited budget in both money and knowledge so i try to play at a level i can afford in both catagories. that being said i always say thank you to the guys with deep pockets as they are the 1s paying for the innovations we see in this sport, not guys like me that won't and can't pony-up for something i know is out of my reach. but only you can determine that for yourself. and on the fast issue, i like to tell my brand x buddies " you have a nice, quick car, but it is not fast. unless you buy a flopper or pipe rack nitro car your just playing like the rest of us because they set the bar". i enjoy moparts because of the help i've recieved from here on different problems i've encountered playing with my cars and other than the search tool it is easy to navigate the forum. dave

I wasnt born till 73 but you could say im stuck in the 50's-60's with my Dart as in all that i have owned and raced the last 12 years.I only attend Nostalgia drag racing and have never made a cent at it .Its nice to step back in time at the events i race at and leave alot of modern tech. behind .I have took great lengths not to harm or disturb the patina on my car .I do like to brag from time to time about how well my poverty built race car runs for the little bit of $$ i have in it though ,lol...

After reading through this I have to say with race cars or internet sites

Just because it's new does not make it evil or the best

Just because it's old doesn't make it cool/great or lame

We all have different ideas/needs from our cars and where we get info on the web. I come here because it is not yellow bullet, but I go to other sites too.

How about the stoneage registration process on fastmopars? I've been waiting for my confirmation email since yesterday.

Looks like Stone Age is winning . Your lucky that the other 70 percent of Mopar owners ( the ones that cant even turn on a computer )don't chime in because it would crash the site.
