All good things must come to an end, Goodbye!

Post by maff »

Ladies and Gentlemen on the 26th of July bigpower.co.uk will cease to be.

The domain name expires and will be "dispatched into the electronic ether never to be seen again" as Ben put it.

It’s been fun, but posts have fallen off, it’s staggered on with Danny, Bart, Pablo and I discussing V8 Supercars and the occasional project post, but the end has come.

The Facebook group continues to reside at https://www.facebook.com/groups/170923386267135/.

So long and thanks for all the posts.

RIP bigpower, Alan

It's been more than just a pleasure, met some really great people on here, so much so it's hard to believe it's been almost 10yrs. Lots of excellent memories and cars. Snetterton has become our home track in a funny sort of way and that's thanks to you guys.

We're planning to be at Snetterton in September of this year for the last round of Time Attack and it would be great to see some of you there.

Thank You.

You'll have to get yourself on Facebook. We had to a while back because everything to do with Time Attack is on Facebook.

It's such a shame but sadly I've seen the same happen to quite a few forums I'm on Faceache has killed most of them as things move over to there sadly I'm not on there.

I can't believe it's been 10 years but had some laughs and remember the big turn outs at Snetterton and I think we was all lucky to experience that and forums as I doubt my kids will get to as it's all faceache nowerdays and you can't search on there to find information ect.

Out of interest how much does it cost to keep this forum ticking over?

The cost will hardly be anything as it uses hardly any bandwidth as in people visiting and posting
