Agree with most of the above, and added to that is the fact that we're all silently awaiting Mike's AM V12 delivery... ;-)

 Good point Smiley  but like i said the world is on a slow streak right now, it only makes sense that the threads slow down as well.

As for the topic, i think the people i have gotten to know, and its a bunch now, they are all here and that is what matters to me. I come here to see new cars, congratulate others on getting new cars, upgrades, or new pics. Or in Mike S case, all of the above.

I am pretty young, and i do not own a fast of expensive car right now, but i come here to learn from others and to express my automotive passion through pics and sketches. I have no real feeling that RT is dying.
