And I must say this weeks car of the week is an excellent choice. Thank You to all the diecast lovers who helped make it to car of the week. It looks beautiful sitting up there in the "Car of the Week" box.

And on another note, thats 2 Bowties as Car of the week back to back, whats the chances of making it 3 for 3. Probably not to good, even I voted for the Ford this week. Sorry Bowtie lovers but that little Ford won me over. this week.

Keep them coming Swifty, your doing an excellent job and I enjoy the background info and often go check out the link too.

Cheers and have a nice day, off to do some diecast hunting myself.

It's not really me. I'm George's hologram! At this moment, the real George is hitting the pegs over at Super K-Mart. However, he sends his best :D

Hey Mr. Carnut guy... I'm late checking in here but I read these boards every day at home; I just got back from Palm Beach, FL. Nice vacation, balmy 80 degrees there. The WM, TRUs and targets are just as bad in the Palm Beach area as they are in the Hartford, CT. area. :( Very slim diecast choices there too.

As for why the 107 page views to 19 replies, if everyone who's already replied goes to check each new reply, they're adding page views. Also, if you read the post, that's one view, and if you click reply it automatically redirects you to your post, and adds a pageview in the process. Likewise if you edit a post you add an additional page view for that. In other words, you can't really judge a thread by it's page views.

And some people will just pass over a thread like this without replying or even looking at it. As hard as this may be to believe, some people totally skip off topic threads. Which is why we have a seperate forum for off topic here, so it doesn't clutter the JL forum and annoy those folks who don't like off topic.

Now I do know we've had more people stop by the board today, but that's what the neat little 'Who's Online' feature is for on the main page.

Some interesting comments that makes it easier to understand how the system works.
Thanks Swifty for taking the time for this reply.

Cheers. Cobra

As long as people are still posting, it might be interesting to see just how far it might go. I know I'm curious.

And BTW, I'm here again today...I think :wave:
