Onyx had the worst greater than thread ever! It was pretty good here on nyspeed, it was the reason I joined the site.

It was WAYYY to difficult to access, get on, etc last year (which is probably why it was non-existent). But that’s already been stated.

yea it was fun when it happened, but way too risky … as someone said maybe a track one would fly, but then whats the point if there is just a list with peoples times then you don’t really need a “greater than” chart for that

It’s really not THAT risky. Most people here are involved with far worse things, see:

please humor me an try to explain how:

having ILLEGAL street racing and respective videos POSTED on a PUBLIC forum in correlation to USER and in some cases REAL NAMES, which can be connected through IPs or any other linking evidence through user history is not that risky. ESPECIALLY considering the fact that street racing bust stories are becoming more and more common every day. all it takes is ONE wrong viewer or ONE big mouth

Driving to work is risky.

:ohnoes:  
😉

turbo, I’ve NEVER been an advocate of having it posted publically, even when it was around the first time.

I’ve always maintained it should be in an invite only subforum.
