I joined around Nov 2005 as crazy-au
Changed my username then proceeded to forget what I changed it too

Joined up again not long ago - change is as good as a holiday right?

For those playing at home I found my username - ten[A]cio[U]s. Almost as stoopid as crazy-au

I didn't come from the old site .... but joined not long after AFF started up really.
I'm still here ... posting at all hours of the day/night .... more nights.

still managed to keep the same username. Has been a well run forum and feels like family here.

I'm still here. Technically a day one member, as was part of a Queensland Ford forum that merged at the start! A lot wearnt overly happy at the time so I left it nearly a year before making it official!good ole days!

Spent most of the early days in the Jim Mock Motorsport section doing up my Xh Xr6 Tickford ute (tear in my eye) only recently forced myself to change my avatar pic.
Now here for the general sport,pits,banter, advice and shooting down the Holden fans

Oh how times change......I'm the soul survivor from that original group!

Still here and still remember the transition very well.

Sad to think we won't have a new model Falcon to talk about after this year.

Feb 05 here.

Had my EL GT and was involved in the XR Club Qld.
Grunter had his silver AU XR8.
We did a couple of days at Darlington Park in the day.
Got some short videos somewhere and the results of the 6 versus 8 days.
Was it Jim who owned the Silver BA GT ? He owned a transport company.

The Darlington park days were sweet.
Seems as though the Qld crowd have quietened right down these days.......
