These ads make everything load slow, tricking me into thinking there's pictures of stuff I'm interested in. But nope.. Just trying to sell me Honda turbos and teacher certifications from towns I've never heard of.

I can see everyone moving to another site, and in a year there'll be a thread, "Who else misses LS1Tech?"

You can be #1000.. Josh @ KYTP claimed 10-999..hahaha Oh and for that code to work right in your signature you need to remove the 2 asterisks.

atleast they could do is limit the google ads to GM type of ads...hell...even american cars ingeneral ads...but that still doesnt justify the fact that they are intervening with the paid sponsors ad time...like someone said already...the new owners obviously arent car guys...proof is in the letting google advertise an electric supercharger

I think it is well understood that for the most part we are not mad at Tech, or any of the staff as this is out of their hands. Our anger is focused towards the group responsible for causing this whole mess in the first place and their perceived lack of empathy for our COMMUNITY.
