Hi Adam, I was just wondering a few things about this place. Like, how you came up with the idea, and the money to do it. When did you first go online? Who was the first members and when? I'd like to know a general history so that if anyone asks, I can tell them, but also for a little blurb that I want to put in with "that other stuff" you're going to send me to "display" at the Red Line Show in Sept. I tried to go back and look for the oldest posts, but I don't know that those dates are accurate or not. So, could you please post a brief history of your great site? I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd like to know, if nothing but out of curiosity! Thanks Adam so much!

Dar...

Good Question.

In fact... it was so good that I added a new page to the site.

You can find it under the "About" menu, called "About C3VR" (what else).

Read up and post your comments here!
