Off topic

I have been following the " Porsche 911 Technical Forum" almost every day for a couple of weeks now.


It seems like we have some individuals that are being "very selective" on which posts to call off topic.

If I see the sentence "what does this have to do with......?" again, I think I will throw up.

there is a LOT of stuff that has nothing to to with a "tech forum", all of it however, is interesting and enlightening.

oh, by the way, we do not need a separate "paint forum" ( this is what got me started on this rant. poor guy got blasted asking questions about orange paint.......for his 911)
flame a way for the off topic if you like

Definitely an "off topic" topic!

Wayne,

I like it just the way it is. If you split it into "engine", "paint", "interior", etc. forums, for one thing it would be a pain to check all of the forums. Currently it is easy -- check the 911 Technical forum for 911-stuff & Off-Topic for...who knows what!

I love the forums Wayne. A big thank you. Please keep them up!

If I'm not mistaken, it's two pancakes.

impressive, how long did it take you to train your rabbit to do that? I had a dog once that could recognize words when you spelled them out, like c-o-o-k-i-e, and c-h-e-e-s-e, and o-u-t-s-i-d-e... Back on topic, that is a very impressive hare you have there...

there will always be new opinions no matter how/what you do.

no, he's a white/brown rabit with 2 pieces of pancake on his head.

BTW, how many topics have we covered on this thread?

I dunno but I think this is a good time to discuss which is best: Carbs, MFI, CIS, motronic, megasquirt or should I just put my double pumper Holley on and call it a day?
