Congrats, TNT!! Well deserved!! Looks like you got the cosmetics down to an art. By your other posts, some work to be done mechanically.

Well if it won't run right, it is definately "broke". The fun is in the tinkering even when it runs "ok". I have always enjoyed that aspect of the sport.

Maybe just do a complete overhaul to go along with the cosmetics.

That's cool, I noticed the site is now snowmobileforums.com, with an "S" on the end. When did that change? And who is Jerry?

for some reason i think the home page always had the "s" because when i would type in the address snowmobileforum.com it would always redirect me to forumS.com.

jerry is working with corba for forum updates and is another webmaster...or thats how ive interpreted (sp) from the emails cobra and i have tossed back.
