Yep same here put in 240Z into AOL search engine and bingo.

I've been a memeber of the email list (from this site, great job on that, too Mike, btw) for about 3 years. When Mike first mentioned the beginnings of this site, I started to keep an eye on it from time to time. Although i didn't officially join for sometime after that. But I've been here for almost 2 years now and wouldn't go anywhere else. :classic:

Just surfing!! I still can't figure out how I got here when I was looking for porn, though?! Kidding!!!!

A-dog...it was simply a case of something very small and seemingly innocent growing into this giant malignant tumor that NOBODY could ignore and required the removal of several limbs to get all the rotted flesh out.

1. ZCAR was LARGELY unmoderated. Vince and Derek are busy guys, and the volumn of posts meant a lot of stuff slipped by.

2. There was a forum not horribly different from our 'Open Discussion' on which posters were allowed to get WAYYYY off topic.

Nothing too bad so far, huh? Lots of fun, good banter, no worries...right? Now add:

3. A lot of personal issues were discussed (religion, war, politics, health, crime, racism, etc. etc. etc...) amongst a large group of people--many of them criminally immature or blissfully uneducated.

Stir very well and quickly! Stir at a rate of up to several hundred posts per hour.

Result: Personal attacks. "Your opinion is WRONG!" leads very easily to, "You are a loser because of your opinion." which grows very quickly and becomes, "You #%@#&^*%$#! If I ever meet you I will %#^*$@%^& you!" Some of it good-natured, some it not.

I am not a sore loser. I did not get involved. But it became very hard to ignore and the 'cringe factor' was nearly unbearable. So I just turned it off and (fortunately) found this place. From what I have heard, ZCAR is all cleaned up and nice again.

I think I found it from a link from another

Z site , but can't remember exactly. To much

web surfing :stupid:

I went to the Motorsports Z show in California. As I was cruizing around, drooling over other Z's I saw a group of people getting together and holding a big ol banner for a foto. The banner said "240Z.ORG". Been here ever since. It's a great place to be.

Holding a banner for 240z.org? Where's that photo? I want a copy of it!!

Depends on your definition of porn.. :stupid: Some people consider Zcars pornography for their mind. I know sometimes I'd rather look at a nice car rather than a naked woman.

Well, maybe not... umm.. but, cars ARE less hassle.

Cars are easier to buy "parts" for. And they don't complain if you are seen in another car.

Beware, the car can actually cost you more in the long run. :stupid:

Holding a banner for 240z.org? Where's that photo>>>

Yeah. I was there all day and never saw that. Who invited who?

they don't complain if you are seen in another car. >>>>

2Mz's you obviously have not seen the look on my Z when I jump in the truck and drive off....

I was around before it started. I knew Mike on the IZCC mailing list.

I inherited a hotrodded 260Z motor with a zx turbo box on it. Went looking for something to put it in. Decided a KPGC110 GTR copy was a good idea and started googling some images. Came across Alfadogs' pics of comparo between the stock 240k grill and a C110 gtr grill he aquired. Looked a bit further into the source of the pics...to the thread in the 240K forum...and then the bigger picture that is Classic Zcar Club. I finer bunch of motorheads you'll never find!!! :laugh:

Jim.

googling...
