It is really quite amazing how this site has developed considering a short while ago it was was only an IP address with a very simple banner to this, the full bang.
Well done to the crew that made this happened. |

PM/email from Genebaby and Falkeen to let me know about the new site. It's gonna take me years to get the same post count I had on the "other" FF though.
As someone has already said in this thread - this is a much better site, even though it's the same people running it (except for the nut/lunatic at the top, of course).

I was a .com member that wasn't sent a link and wondered what the hell had happened when I came back from holidays and it was so quiet. I also couldn't find 'The Pub' and other aussie haunt's.
I eventually tracked you down thanks to a clue in someone's post at FAF.com.au  :

I had a feeling after the blowup of .com that something new and better was about to get going. ( also some inside info) lol

I was going through the threads of the Network 54 Cleveland Forum and someone had asked a question on there about which heads were better, CHI's or AFD's. One of the replys was going on about a debate on the .com forum and the .com.au forum and I thought hang on a minute, maybe thats where everybody has gone. Had a look at this site and have never been back to .com. Well done guys and girls.

Came back from a short holiday, and there was a message waiting for me from champsky telling me about this place, so I signed up.
This place feels much more like home then the .com ever did, we don't have people assuming E series is like an F series truck, only smaller, nor do we have a lunatic in charge, lol!
