Yup, it took me a while, but that's commensurate with my driving style anyway. I found out of FF through the FPV-Tickford Club of NSW website, back when they were the Tickford Owner's Club of NSW.
I've forged many friendships throughout my time here, and also learned a lot of, somewhat useful, stuff about Ford in general, and other non vehicle stuff. Since I started here I have met the following characters:
3Toed, AusXH, JR & XR_Strider_GuY - the 3FB originals, legends in their own right here on FF;
B-1B - no I am NOT there yet;
Blurter & Sticky Date Crew - always a pleasure cruising with you guys;
Bluedriver - of the legendary chameleon wheel variety - a true gentleman who happened to sign off on his XR through the same salesman, dealer and on the same day I did;
Mother Nature and crew - for advice when needed and always good company;
Steve's XR8 - Choppsy demonstrating a great amount of patience for putting up with the "I'm lost" phone calls;
Wulos - learned a fair bit about Ford through this bloke;
XR6HP01 - complements with the Venom six cylinder trio and a top cruising companion;
Zantetsuken - Great company and fellow aviator;
The BSR crew that I met either at the Bathurst 24hr or at the 2004 FPV Weekend: AP, AU1sixa, Casper, Cobra, FM, Grunter, Laminge, Mr & Mrs Tickford2001, Pearly, Russ, and xdc351;
Not to mention the IRC crew (they know who they are) and anyone else I forgot to mention.
All the FF events I have been to have been great, always good to be in formation with a bunch of fine Ladies, Gentlemen, Lads and Lasses.
Cheers & Regards,
James.
