jimmy and i were talking the other day about where everyone came from on this site... i know some were part of njfbody, some friends of friends, some flyered, some of the ewing crew have probably just been drafted in... so, how'd you get here?

personally, i saw a flier on the bulletin board at island the day that i was moving into rutgers after i came back for work... checked it out that night i believe.

I'm not entirely sure.....I may have been drinking and complaining about another car club. Then I think someone threw a credit card at me, and he we are :)

basically jsutin and i started this and someone informed cryz about 30mins after we went public. she freaked out and elevated it into a war.
we played it cool for the most part, then she admitted defeat, gave me admin access to the other board and it was over.

that is the ultra short version. the long version involves lots of drinking, name calling, and a flying credit card. lol

I think at first I googled njfbody.com but when i lurked the board for a day or two, it was pretty dead so I didn't think much of it. Untill 1RawTA saw my car in Ridgewood where I worked at the time, and brought me out to a fudds meet with James, paul, boon & gene. So I got more into it and became pretty active.

Then when NJFBOA came along, Tim told me to come down to a Fudds meet one night where he unvailed the whole plan, I joined a week later after I came back from vacation. I still have one of the original flyers he gave us.

i started on thirdgen.org when i had my 88 GTA('97) and from there i started selling parts and stuck to the local northeastern boards mainly where i saw a link to NJFbody.com and i also saw a link of Ls1.com for njfbody as well. I signed up there and was only around for about 2 weeks before the NJfboa unveiling. Once i saw that, i came on over, and i was the 53rd member to sign up. lol and ive been here since.

Mod/Admin of the "other site" and was told by Tim and Justin that this site was going to be created. I held together the other site, but there was no stopping the force that was NJFBOA!!
Fbody-interwebbing started in 2001 on TGO. Met up with a lot of north people, helped create Fbodychaos.com, that fell apart, then went onto several other sites like GMI, CZ28, LS1.com, and then on TGO a bunch of us met down in Depfort for a meet at some mall, formed NJFody.com

I posted about an event on CamaroZ28 board, the weight-nazi here told to do the same here...

The first time I met Tim at Atco many many years ago with his "look ma... no weight" third gen made me question what the hell was I doing at Atco on a Friday night for my first time to race....

I have since cross paths many times over the years with some of you at E-town, other events and Island recently. So I had to come over here and at least "lurk" to find out where the "fun" was going to be...

Plus I think the NJ board needed some token PA-pukes so that they can claim they are an "equal opportunity member organization".

Googled around looking for parts at first... then figured maybe they had some kinda dedicated new jersey f-body site, and stumbled upon NJFBody. I was there I'd say 2-3 weeks as the name "86KnightRider" (yes I had knight rider lights in it :rofl: ) until I realized it was dead. Then I eventually saw the njfboa link there, clicked here, and been here since.
