Frrax Facebook?, Should we have one? Options

Its the natural progression - as more cars are beat/ raced/ retired/ left for scrap, the more the decent ones increase in price as demand goes up relative to supply. Me personally, I'd rather pay for an older lighter car than a new 6th gen Camaro with all the unnecessary electronics and poor visibility. And no T Tops. Easier to fix. But I'm a semi-luddite. Some day I too will say 'hell with all this tinkering' and get a new Corvette and still whoop ass at autocross, because $$$ spent.

That's exactly my issue with the new car....and I don't fit in it. I'm 5'11" tall and wear a 32" inseam. So I'm not super tall and I don't have super tall torso. But I rub my head on the roof of a new SS with a sunroof. I think I might be ok in one without the sunroof. But not by much. As much as I've tried to convince myself to buy a new one....I just can't seem to do it. So....I've found another 4th gen for now.

When I first started reading this thread I thought, hey this might be the final straw to push me to FB. I hope to be starting AX this year driving my own car more often instead of co-driving. I could probably use some immediate feedback during events. Not sure that's what the OP had in mind, and I know there's not going to be someone hanging on the edge of there seat to answer me right away, but still, seemed like a more immediate response type of idea rather than waiting till evening to get home, settled down, chickens fed, hogs slopped, etc... before I would post here. Yes, I'm old and if I don't ask something right away, I'll probably forget the exact situation hours later.
That said, I've been seriously thinking of joining so I could see specific groups and manufactures sites. Seems more and more info is going there instead of their websites. Don't know that for sure.
Just my .02
