After over a year on this wonderful forum and gaining sooo much education on these cars of ours I felt obliged to become a supporting member....I know what it costs to manage a forum as large as this one and we can only make it better by supporting the people behind the scenes...SO C"MON stop procrastinating...you know it's one hell of a deal at $25......I have probably saved hundreds if not thousands from the smart Corvette people on here and you will also...what's $25....a few beers guys and gals...get involved!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bam. Done. I agree it takes a lot of time to run a site like this, so with that, I'm happy to contribute. I've already had fun here, and I'm sure that will continue.

Thanks OP, I just signed up as well!

Thought it to be only appropriate to sign up as I have saved tons of money and time with all the great members and vendors!

It's hard to imagine how life was 20 years ago without the internet!

I'm still going to always be an instigator though

After almost 10 years on the Forum I pulled the trigger and did the Lifetime Membership a month ago. A small give back for all of the advice, information and smiles the Forum has provided me!

It's not that those of us who haven't signed up are cheapskates. In the early days the Forum was run by enthusiasts but it became a commercial organization a few years ago. Many of us still contribute but with time and accumulated knowledge rather than $$

Hey DeeGee I have seen all your contibutions and agree...you have put in time and time is money.... and the Forum has become so big I would think commercialization was the only way to keep it alive considering the costs of servers, bandwidth and maintenance

Everyone pretty much hit the nail on the head with this thread! The time and money saved simply because of the amount of enthusiasts on this Forum is impressive. I have learned so much as a new Corvette owner and was happy to upgrade to a Lifetime Supporting member just now. I have been putting it off, for what reason I don't know but it is done now!

Thanks everyone.
