James Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 Just noticed we've had 3,000 people visit the 10CR site!The way I made the "hit counter" is so that it's pretty accurate as to how many individuals visit - not based on the same person visiting again and again...Impressive I think!Spread the word people - make sure you post the web address wherever you can...Let's get some more crews!

Raider Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Not manic enough?Well, on the first 10Cr we didn't have a forum - it was different back then you know :oFirst of all we just e-mailed each other, then we went to a yahoo set up thingy that craig gingell sorted out. The amount of e-mail traffic on it was outstanding and we all had a great time with it all - in fact, we then opened up this forum immediately after the 10CR and it kicked off on the back of it all :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toledo Man Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 You could always get an Acclaim. Reliable (as Barry proved on the 2003 run with Rupert) and what I'd call a "modern" Triumph. I know its a badge-engineered Honda but badge-engineering was nothing new to BL/Austin-Rover back in the 70s and 80s! In essence a Japanese Triumph.

James Posted May 17, 2005 Author Share Posted May 17, 2005 I love the term "badge-engineering" - it somehow implys there is more to it than just sticking a different badge on the front of the car... or do you need an engineer to do that...It asks the question "how many engineers does it take to change a badge?" ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Is that with or without a risk assessment - the art of doing the job without lifting a finger :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
