WTF ever happened to Rennlist JD
You know I was here in the old porschephiles days then came this Rennlist.com.
I gotta say man it just aint the same.
You come on here talking about building a 3.0 ltr motor with 500 hp evereryone responds.
LARGER TURBO SURE YOU WILL GET AROUND 50 RESPONSES.
I ask a simple question about what shims you guys use I got 1 answer.
when it was an e mail list at least everyone contributed including me.
Most people on here are generally helpful but man there are a sh*tload of **** holes on here

No kidding, I miss the old days on the email list. There are a few of us left and a whole bunch of new folks. To their defense, there are some very knowledgble folks here along with some folks that have a bit to learn. Hopefully you'll stick around and help us teach them.

I lurk mostly these days. Always read the threads of about a dozen people and tend to ignore the rest. Too much BS about nothing these days. Plenty of threads regarding champagne taste with beer money.

The old days are gone. All of the people that knew what they were talking about have dissipated.
Now all that remains are the college kids who take it upon themselves to reply to every thread, spitting out nothing but useless information and upping their post count.

I will say that I do skip a lot of posts due to the same questions being asked over and over. In the case of asking a brake pad questions you might ask well ask about religion or politics!

I don't think it benefited any of us, at the time we needed to keep the list going
A few volunteers kept it going so as to not have to shut down the server >>>>>Porsche said we were infringing on copyrights.
