You give us Snu-Snu?

Canoe? Oh wait a second! This is the GRM Canoe!!

Awesome, thanks for the info.

Per..seriously, not a bad idea at all! You both serve the same market. I'm hoping it's full of win for everybody involved.

BTW: That pic of Stig crawling around next to the LeGrand in the Oct issue made SHMBO say, "awwww!"

Cool! Only $197 to sell a car!

Not really, could be free, could be $20, could be more. You get to choose the options depending on your budget.

(and thanks, Stig was having fun pressing the buttons on the longacre scale set up.)

Awesome! I might be listing three (and a bike) soon.

Since the GRM community is invading RacingJunk, shouldn't there be a separate subcategory for Miatae?

I have to say that I don't like this change. When I searched the classifieds, there was value in knowing the owner was a GRM subscriber. Now I have no way of knowing.

Bravenrace, not everyone who posts here is a subscriber...

Is there any way to tag the GRM forum members? I agree, I'd prefer to buy something from someone on this forum.

We have our own ways of letting each other know we're in the club.

And yes, I'm talking about the paddle scars on our hind ends.

What do you mean you don't have those?

The short-term fix is to post that information in the listing. I'll talk with RacingJunk about another solution as well, but low-tech solutions are sometimes best.

I just tried to post my car there, but it didn't let me sign in. It asks if I'm registered with GRM and to sign in but keeps kicking me out.

Even though GRM and rj both cater the auto market. I get little or no response from racejunk.

Are you guys going to get rid of the classifieds section on the left margin of this site? It seems to have gone stale with the switchover.

In reply to dyintorace:

It will eventually become a feed from RacingJunk.com or a banner link to their site. We're still working on fixes from the front page changeover, so it may be a little while yet.

Gotta say, not a fan of this.

I tried to give it a shot, but over and over again I find myself missing the old GRM classified.

Frankly, I dont see how this new one is different then any other classified you will find through google, where the GRM one had A solid feeling to it. They were GRM'ers not strangers.
