Default New Old Stock Here!

Hello, fellas. Steve/XTrooper here. As most of you know, I've been a moderator for around five years, first on LS1.Com where many of you got your start and since Feb. on LS2.Com. Well, I finally had enough last night and quit.

I suspect you'll be seeing me more and more here and I hope to be received with a friendly reception.

Thanks.

Welcome! I remember seeing you back on ls1.com. Blew my mind to realize that law enforcement officers are real people, too

Thanks for the welcome, Chupa!

Well, it's been a long time since I was a police officer (I retired in April of 1991), but yes, some of us are real people.

Glad to see you over here Steve. I always enjoyed reading your posts on LS1.com and I tried to follow you to LS2 but the lack of indepth tech kept me away.

Between LS1/2 sites I have since 1999 ~24,000 posts and 99.99% of them were/are tech-related. I hope to contribute at least some small part to the wealth of knowledge available here.

Thanks for the warm welcome, gentlemen. I deeply appreciate it.

Joe: Hey, amigo! Not sure about SLP Day. I went to the very first one and haven't been to one since. What's the date for this year's event?

Steve,
It's this Saturday, gates open at 9:00am. I'm trying to clear my schedule myself. It sounds like they are doing things differently this year with no
pre-registration and letting in their new business endeavor,
Custangs . Joe
