• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    FYI: Cold air intake and your air filter!

    Just an FYI for those of you with a Cold Air Intake from Cowtown and possibly others. Check your airfilter more often - Increased airflo = increased dirt and whole bug bodies! See: http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?41506-TPS-Codes-P2620-amp-P1120-Caused-by-a-dirty-air-filter

    Reda gas can - Why is it so $$$pecial?

    I wanted to get one, maybe 2 of these for carrying gas on longer trips and about fell over when I saw the price. What makes these things so different from a regular gas can that allows them to demand such a price? ~$35 for a 1 gallon gas can seems a little steep to me.
