Hey Adam, Bob, Brian - perhaps others ?? I was looking at the Registry for a bit today. I noticed that not all of our cars are on the Registry. Meaning, some of the guys on this forum have their cars listed, while others do not.
Is there rhyme or reason to this? I thought I had registered my ride on there, yet it doesn't show up. I didn't see Per's or Randy's or Michel's, yet I saw all of yours, Keith's, Rolf's, Rick's and others.... just trying to see if we (those who's cars are not posted) need to do something to register and post our rides that perhaps we've missed?

By the way, for what it's worth, I live and work about 3-5 miles from the Wilmington DE plant where some of your rides were built. Thinks that's pretty cool, though my car was not built here. :bawl: (this is considered useless information and was shared for reasons unknown to the author!) :laugh:

I didn't registered it because I don't know all my options and I was to lazy to find out what my vin is...:laugh: Anyway I will register it, in a while. :coffee:

Like I have nothing better to do with my time either Michel. :laugh:
Busy Monday morning and I wonder why I am ever worried about this!

When I started the registry, I was very gung-ho about getting all the registrations updated and onto the website.

Fast-forward a year, and there is a pile of over 100 Centurions to enter into the website. I just look at it and sigh....I wish I had time to get every one of them on there, I've just lost most of my drive to enter them. It takes an inordinate amount of time just to do one car, I run out of steam very quickly. Plus, I don't have much time to devote to the computer anymore.

Adam,
It’s very understandable that you either have the time or the desire to register hundreds of cars :p , none of us others would have either.

A “Do it your self solution” would be the best where everyone start up their record for their car(s) and then maintain it if ever needed. Think us regulars would help each other out pretty good seeing incorrect or missing info while other records probably would remain less complete, something we would have to live with.
I guess this was the thought once you started the registry but it just required a lot of hands-on for you to make the cars go through the registry process.
In my opinion the form is a bit to complex to fill in for a rookie which leaves the work for you to completing it later, this just my thought, right or wrong.
If the record could be build up in blocks of information starting with the basic stuff just to start the record, and then built on with information as you got to know your car, that might simplify getting all cars in for those of us that want that of course…
Again, just sharing my thoughts..

Hey Adam - don't sweat it bud. I never realized you were the one and only guy doing them. Truth is, I had no clue who did them, or if we should do them ourselves. Per has a good point. Is there a way that we could do our own? Maybe you could divvy them out to those of us willing to help and lighten your load? If 10 of us took 10 each that would certainly help...

The good news is this..... YOUR SITE IS SUCCESSFUL! :beers:
You have over 100 Centurions more Centurions to register! That's on top of the 50 or so that are already there! How cool is that!?!?! :D

Let us help you bro!

BTW, I didn't mean to draw this unwanted attention toward you Adam. :Dou:
Ignorance is bliss as time, and not so much at other times!!!
