• 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.

    '13 RSS won't start...Help?

    If I ever get it started again,I will measure the running voltage :)..I have had a meter on it and when I turn the key..it drops from 12.6 to about 12.4..then when I press on the brake it goes down about just as much..turning the key takes it to about 12.2 and a relay clicks.Turning the key...
