Default 365 days ago... a Forum was born....

Indeed so, 1 year ago this day, this hour, and even.. this minuite, is when we first setup the Homemadeturbo Forum. It amazes how time flies, and how this forum has just grown into something great. I'd like to thank a few people for making all of this happen.

First off, the admins

Freerock - My brother, who has helped this site out a ton. He's a very busy guy like myself, and spares enough time whenever we have a problem with the website. May of last year (when we were having all the server problems) He built the HMT server along with hosting it out of his house. Just want to say thanks Kevin.

Random-Strike - Johnny, he has been there from the beginning, doing a ---- ton of the HTML work, I thank you again man. Your work is truly appreciated!


Global Admins

Onyx - Wyatt, it wouldn't be the same if you weren't here.. I'm glad shortyz took that summer break so you could fill in.

Shortyz - Jordan, has been there from the very get go, leading the FI forum and now a global mod. Your posts just crack me up..

Leed - Dave, The B16 timing master.. glad to have you on the HMT team dude. You did some great videos this year for us!

Blacksi - Beau, your always going to be apart of the HMT family regardless of what happens between us.


The Moderators

Dr. Boost - Justin, my top poster, lol... I applicate all your time.. I know the posts can get so damn repetitive in FI, but you always have something good to say.

Crx88si - Mike, I didnt think I've ever seen a guy logged on the board longer than you throughout the day.

PoormansPorsche - Chris, (I LOVE YOU MAN) lol,

Ghettoturbo - Jason, or should we call you turboboy? your first name? haha, you have the shittiest mod job of them all.. Classifieds, and I applicate you help!

Joseph Davis - Even though we butted heads in the beginning, Alot of people look up to you here, and I'm glad you are apart of HMT.

__________________________________________________ ______

Now, a few people that I'd just like to say thanks for other ----..

TurboHF - Dustin, even though your a little ---- at times your a good guy to have on HMT, and thanks for letting me borrow your parts lately.

Shadowgate - Jacob, god if it wasn't for you I'd be lost with this YaBB forum software!!!

TurboEF9 - We'll call you Jason, because I know you like to be called that.. lol, As Jordan says.. "he really knows how to push Jeff's buttons" which is true, but I'm glad you came back to HMT, We are all very impressed and excited with the new stuff you are doing with TE. Keep up the good Work!

Semnos & DutchPug - My Holland HMT guys.. glad you guys visit the website even though your half way across the world. Someday I'm defiantly going to have to meet you guys!

Tunertoys - Craig, another HMT donator... I applicate all your work Craig, the oil fittings were defiantly a sweet find! thanks for helping us out.

Stealthmode - aka Stealthysteve.. I think your psychic was right Thanks for the sweet deals on oil feed/line kits.

I can seriously say that my life would not be the same without you guys, woulda made the post list, except the first couple months I just read, and didn't waste your time. Not any more, I waste lots of time here, just not my own.

Thanks to those who make the site possible, your efforts are greatly appreciated.

HMT is #1 in my book.
Where else can you find solid tech advice, low budget boost, import/domestic friendly, and you can post ****!

You've come along way since Geocities/HMT, Congrats!
