Yup...that would be them....Pretty much 75% of Yuri's car was all parts from KORE. *lol* I remember when KORE charged a membership also, like TSR did. People got membership numbers and everything. laugh.gif

KORE had a team, but it wasn't a membership to be on the site. The site was free.

I still have the polo from KORE. Maybe I'll take a pic.



The day I said goodbye to KORE: lol

what was your TeamSR # ? squint.gif


Now I know where theres an outline of a TSR logo on my dash. The guy I bought the car from must have been a member. And on the back bumper, about 1/4" tall was a sticker that said "www.teamsr.org".....

I joined hp.com a few months after it started at the tender age of 18. I remember reading the post wars between Kirk and everyone else, most specifically Jed. Never thought I'd end up marrying the guy. Also, never thought I'd be posting for this long. I've seen many people come and go. I really miss the impromptu meets and the craziness. Things just aren't the same as they were a few years ago...then again, I guess thats what happens when you grow up.

^i remember you from cardomain, and the remington as well nana.gif . i thought you were just a madame with another tiburon. little did it take to find out you are classic.

unfortunately, i think the scene stops here. 02.gif but that can only be a good thing because we've lasted and will still last.

Red is still around, but I'm pretty sure he sold his Tib, or at least was looking for a buyer awhile back. This is his old site:

http://www.hyundaiproject.com/

You can see what that crazy bastard started. Shame he never finished it all the way, but he did get it running for awhile. Car would be beast today if he went all the way with it. He used to keep us updated with alot of things in the "Shark Pool" over on HA. Its a locked forum to only the more knowledgeable members in the hyundai scene, from all different walks of hyundai life....transmission, engine, paint & body, suspension, etc....



Majik...actually...Kirk wasnt the original Nazi. There used to be a member back on FxTreme called Eyescream. Him and one of the admins (Bry) used to tear noobs apart like you have never seen before. Kirk is/was a saint compared to those two. lol.gif

I swear I was just about to mention eyescream. lol Did you know he actually left and was a frequent poster on Clubsi.com along with Red? Go over there and check his name/posts.

Isn't Bry the one that came here not long ago to check in? He made a screename like 2 months ago.
