[TPR] Old DeTomaso email forum going down

[Asa Jay Laughton]

Hi all,

For those who haven't been keeping track of these things, POCA is  
taking down the DeTomaso email forum.  Yes, the forum that has been  
going for 20 years and first began with Shane Ingate, is now being  
taken off-line by POCA as they transition to a new web hosting company  
and new web site.  The new web site will boast a new on-line forum  
with over 50 specific discussion topics and the hope is that members  
will transition to the new forum paradigm, much like the rest of the  
Internet today.  The new on-line forum is supposed to have a method to  
get emails on each topic as well as just going on line to browse.  The  
one caveat here is that you MUST be a POCA member to access any of  
this.  POCA president Michael Shortt assures the membership the  
archives will be preserved in some way (though you'll probably have to  
be a member to browse those as well), and that a new person (Kurt  
Byrnes) will be standing up a replacement email forum for those who  
still need their "fix" in the same way they are getting it today  
(separate from POCA).

For those who have not been members and are not seeking to become a  
member of POCA, you'll have to wait to see if Kurt manages to stand up  
a replacement with the full archive.

The new web site looks nice on the surface and still needs a few  
things brought up to speed, like the photo gallery and some other  
things not quite "there" yet.  However, the web team needs to get the  
new site in place as it is (a good way there mind you) before the Fun  
Rally, so they are making the switch-over -today-.

Please note that I am no longer part of any administrative group for  
POCA and have no control over the web site or the old Detomaso email  
forum.

I will continue to host and moderate this email forum and it seems to  
work just fine right now.  This one is of course moderated, quiet,  
calm and serene; highly focused on pretty much one thing.

Sooo.... does anyone want to talk about pinion angle of the steering rack?

Asa  Jay
