• Not a fan of Opel GT dot Com anymore. The format is the same CRAP format that was used on several other sites and I really do not care for it, and I find it to be much slower loading, so I will be posting here a LOT more now. Hopefully others will come over here more often too. If not, thats fine too, really starting to not like a large portion of the population of this crappy planet anyway. :cursing:

    Under steer: The front of the car hits the wall,
    Over steer: The rear of the car hits the wall,
    Horsepower: How fast the car hits the wall,
    Torque: How far the car pushes the wall after it hits the wall.

    I have to agree the site became slower, Harder to search for threads, The Platform is new a different, more BS Ad's ..... and it's all out of our hands, nothing we can do about it... Changes are good and Bad... The Site is all about making them money now.. Ad's posted in middle of threads, security problems, Not too many people posting, or even logging in now.. see how that goes...

    I don't have a Good feeling posting there anymore, So let's see if we can get together here Folks,,, I kinda like this site now.. it's simple once you tour the site...

    The uploading of photo's , and the Project and article sections are very cool

    and Gary's Here to help us through the hard times... Couldn't ask for better support

    As far as people goes, we live in a new High Tech World, WE are Boomers, The new Generation is taking over, and not like us where our parents saved everything for us

    The new Generation wants everything Brand New.. no hand me downs,,,, They don't want anything Old or used, heck they don't even want Pop's old Classic Car..

    Why? They don't want to be told what to do.... nothing we can do about it

    That's Life and were Living it.... It's all out of our hands now..

  • Agreed to all the above, me and Gary have been waiting for the shift.

    The good thing about this one is that it is Ad free, and run and operated by the community. So it won't go anywhere. Ihave heard of some of the VB forums being closed and just vaporizing. As they were unprofitable. Could happen to OpelGT.com won't happen here.

  • For some reason I can not figure it out,, why not more people start coming here

    It has the same type platform as before...

    The problem with opelgt.com is Now it more just a social page... recent to last 6 months

    Tons, and tons, of Ad's and BS that follow you around won't go away..

    Note: push This>>:thumbdown:

    Try and use there search box to find an old thread/topic and all the links are broken... Just better logging off and asking Google to Go find it for you on the world wide web.

    maybe it will bring up the thread in the new platform..maybe not. Seems like the site is broken now... have to ask to restore a broken thread... how did it get broken?

    Simple is always better in my opinion... and this place feels more like Home...

    Start posting the Carlisle Information here too... If you Post it people will come 8o

  • Give it time. They broke OpelGT dot com, so people will eventually figure it out or they won't. I am here and not looking back. And I did hit up a good 30 people or so so it's not like no one knows where to come.

    You know who you are

    Thank you for all your help support and kindness:thumbup:

    well just in case I'm glad I saved all the pics from my gt so I won't have to rely on them always being over there in the event it does crash or dissolve
