Wth guys such as yourself pushing the limits and breaking new ground and being willing to post up your results both good and bad is what fourms like these are intended for. It makes it easier for guys like myself to make good informed choices.

This site has been growing since 2001 when it was launched and even before that when it operated under a different format. Aside from a few bad apples, the forum has always been and always will be the "go to" board for info and discussion on Benzes.

Haven't been around much lately. I think any active forum will have contributors, comics, hunters, gatherers, nut swingers, people who think they are too cool for school, and a host of other personalities. It's fun to learn new things and be entertained at the same time. MBW FTW!!

The good has always outweighed the bad on this board. I've learned a lot of what to do and not to do from experiences from other board members and I hope my threads have helped others as well.

I have talked and met some really nice people outside the board and some who have really helped when I needed it (PTE, Rflow, Marcus, Vadim, Vrus, Olin, etc...)...so cheers...
