How old are our motors?

Post by Stu »

Got intrigued after the Nostalgia Nats thread in events. What are the most common ages/years in the club? Wondering how many people the "Pre 73" rule actually urinates on, but just intigued at the rest.

Can't put every year up, so have just gone in groups. Sure someone will want it done differently, but hey-ho.

Alright, first error... :roll:

Only if you're strong enough to strap it to your back and run the length of the strip with it. :D

Maybe the 18 or so viewers who haven't ticked the poll are all post '73. :? That might explain why the N-Nats was so quiet... :help:

We might never get the 5 votes again, Dave! :D

I've requested the mods fix it. :thumbright: Still not sure why it didn't show. :help:

Mods? Help! :help:

Mind you, with 80 odd looker-innerers and only 15 voters, that's a LOT of 73+ cars! :D

I'd agree that my car doesn't belong at the Nostalgia Nats, but also neither would an '82+ Camaro etc.

Was the low turnout just because people are being careful with their money?

I suspect that's more the reality, Holly. ;)

Sorted :thumbright: Let me know if you want it changed again ;)

PS It only lets you vote once so I did so for the 63, as the 69 is temporarily laid-up :roll:
