Where are the "Best of '08" threads?

Usually around this time of year we get some threads about the "Best of (this and that)." Don't see any.

Well, I guess I thought you couple of guys would know already what goes where.


I've bookmarked about 20 Carrera threads, I won't nominate any of them. They're all good. We made some good progress this year on A/C systems.

But, I guess there weren't enough "My Targa goes 175" threads in '08.

Activity in the Miltwerks captured my imagination in 2008.

That guy might just be a visionary.

Can't believe it's been a year already. I just remembered wishing him many more happy new years to come...

I loved Shakin Joe's 438 ibs gone "in days" thread!
The information on the weight of different parts etc was just great.

Also the 935 picture thread and the making of the "Blackbird" was great as well - in my wiew.

my nomination:

technically, a 2007 thread that pushed into 2008 because of availability issues

I will take them

Nothing Snowman related? Or did those all get 'locked down and then erased' to preserve our sanity?
