Gee lets see, where should I start? For starters he was the biggest post ***** in h-t history amassing 1500+ posts in 3-4 weeks time. He quickly became a mod and the whole world loved boba. But then disgruntled people who had done business began popping up, he supposedly bought a 2nd R (a 97) and was gonna track ***** his 00 PY.

Then one day he stops posting, and sells the PY ITR which had a AEM CAI/JDM DC/carsound & a ZEX 75 shot which according to Boba the car ran high 12's. Nothing fradulent about that, but a few weeks/months later after 50+ nitrous 1/4 mile passes. Boba returned the car to 100% stock and passed it off as a bone stock ITR that was never modded to an unsuspecting buyer that is now a h-t member.

He then re-appeared supposedly having sold both R's and driving a Vette Z06, when confronted with his questionable business dealings he stopped posting on h-t altogether.

Actually Anton, things move rather quickly around here. 1 year in h-t time is a looong time. Just look around and you'll notice that 2/3 of the ITR forum regualrs that were here one short year ago are no longer here. Here a just a few for memory lane...

Dan Ponze
Vegeta
Mike K
Boba-Fett
EagleR (RIP)
flex97itr
NewYorkTypeR
SpeedRacer0067
Buzzsaw

And the list goes on...

Yeah I hear ya,,, you're so right about that... I just never thought of us as the older guys though, even if our actual ages indicate otherwise.

What about Boba-fett? I believe the owner of his old car is a member here on H-T.

He was pretty cool guy, but obviously, his business dealing was not done properly.

I remember the new owner of Boba's car did not know the car had nitrous on it He later found out when he posted here.

I've been here through all of this, I just go through phases where I post, and others where I just log on and read a little bit. I only have 700 posts after like 2 years or so, maybe more. Most people don't even know who I am, but I feel as through I've become pretty acclamated to most of the users here on H-T.

H-T for the good times throughout the years
