Default members climbing

signed on this morning, 282 members. 2 hours later 320+ i think its going to go through the roof. members growing and exceeding at a huge rate well done guys. i think its going to be only a matter of time.

I think someone may have burnt too many bridges now and will struggle to get back ;)

Woo Hoo!
Give it a couple of days and we'll be up to 1000.

Way to go guys, and yes I agree, this forum was very much needed.
Thanks! ;)

i believe 1000 wont be far away. considering that fordforums.com.au doesnt even show up in search engines yet. i would be guessing if an aussie ford enthusiast found both us and fordforums.com in the search engine together, they would most likely look here first.

good times, and congrats to the organisers
