Not quite 20 years. Joined from BangorCruise after it went down temporarily. Was bouled quite severely by PacMan for wanting to add bonnet stripes to a Mini Cooper which put a pause on any further posting for about 4 years thereafter.

Oh and I just found this on Google lol:

On the road with the car cruisers

It's a familiar sight - young lads in cars driving through towns or sitting in car parks with their windows down and their stereo systems up. A set of alloys, a metallic finish or a roaring exhaust - for many the immediate reaction is 'boy racer'.But how many of us realise the time, money and...

Can't find Gary's photo.

Trying to remember when I joined BangorCruise. Late 2000 maybe.

I see 'Felt Spec' was a thing back then too

"I've seen quite a few daft modifications over the years," recalls Barry. "Like when someone hasn't had the money to get their suspension lowered properly and has taken an angle grinder to the springs themselves."

Wasn't me back then

Was not long a mod by the time RMS had it's 10th birthday which I think was 2011 ish.

But jeez, the PM's and gossip I've been recipient of over the years has been something else. Lot of good friends made from on here and some of the dealings and goings on has been (and continues to be) amazing

Hillbilly was far from being admin of any sorts He was more likely to be banned just like the banter! 11/11/1911 I think he used to say?

Banter banned 7/7/1911 B.B.P.M

Whatever happened to Skiman?, remember a thread years ago where he was getting a touch of banter and didn't take too well to it!

He got smoked by @Gaz in an old Volvo and became Stephen T.

Anyone remember the fella had a white modified micro then had a 318 then an mr2 turbo. He introduced me to rms when I first started my apprenticeship so would have been 2004. I think he moved to Australia. Can’t remember his name or username

I can’t remember if I signed up then or just lurked. I definitely remember that Volvo thread from back in the day though

The Skiman days were some craic, on a somewhat related note I made this 14 years ago and stumbled across it again a few weeks back
