Some very kind and generous soul out there has gone and gifted me a Gold Membership.....I really don't deserve that kind of attention, and it caught totally by surprise. :thumbsup:

I have been living the last few months as a Non-Gold member to see how bad it really was. And having being upped today by surprise, I realise just how much I had been missing.

When I say missing - I mean in the sense that those pesky adverts don't slow down my ability to browse here at high speed. What a joy it is. :D

Thank you very much to whoever is responsible....it is very much appreciated and most welcome. :lowdown::lowdown::lowdown:
 
Congrats!
There are decent people around that do kind things still I notice alot are on here ! Must be the mopars ! They make us kind to others !!
 
I'm surprised that you don't get that perk as a function of the Moderator status. Without the GOLD, how would you be able to respond to any "Offensive" content in the Blue forum ??

I can see all content....but it's the dang advertising that I see also.....slows me down. :thumbsup:
 
*cough*AdGuard*cough* :)
Congrats on the return to the Midas touch, kiwi.
Somebody was kind enough to gift me Gold a few years ago and when it came time, I
ponied up the loot to renew it - only to find out somebody gifted me at the same time
again!
Got an inadvertent "2 Fer" there. :thumbsup:

BTW, I've discovered recently the Aussie Touring Car Masters series on YT. Man, those are a blast!
Vintage iron racing at a frantic/manic pace with no fear. 10 times more entertaining than anything
NASCAR (which I haven't watched in many years now - blah).
Cameron Tilley is a personal favorite. Dude is running the six banger hemi amongst all those V-8s!
I still need to figure out what a "Tah-rah-nah" is, though. :)

Those small V8's they run are amazing - seriously high revs and beaten like rented mules.
Who has the Challenger T/A Sam Posey-looking car? Is that a NZ driver?
 
I thought you meant Golden Boy, in 45-70

He'll be a local guy...I saw it in a magazine a while back....this clip is from the track just "down the road" from me....about an hour...

Yep, that's it. Saw that car in a couple year old TCM race where the announcers were talking about a
bunch of NZ racers jointly racing with them.
It's gotta be a clone, eh?
