    Anyone else celebrating their 15th anniversary at this place in 2014?

    I reckon I joined the original granturismo.com forum in September 1999 - some of you must've already reached this milestone though, no?

    August 1999 for me.

    The peeps that joined kenji's original board (gamehunter?) in Winter 1998 just hit 15 years.

    Early 2000, Dennis--just in time to show up to Carlo's that first year.

    I joined in December 2009 originally, just after the release date of GT2.

    I don't remember. It was during GT1, because I remember being confused as to why the Mk4 Supra had a higher top speed with the stock flywheel, as Swervo (I think) said.

    What's with people assuming 2009 was a long time ago? 99 and 09 aren't easy to confuse....unless you're really old. Like Brett.

    I'm a relative n00b. Summer 2003 just as Kenji flipped his shit resulting in some Grade A arguments with KillerB and whichever one of the many obvious aliases Nigel was using that day.

    Feb '99 for me. Roofer too. I guess I remember that because we all had the date joined under our names and the internet was fresh and new and the whole thing seemed very cool.

    But all the REALLY cool kids had Dec '98 under their names.

    And speaking of GT1 and Supras, I believe I still hold the record for top speed on the Test Track of 268 or 269 mph. I remember posting all my settings and lots of commentary in the Top Speed thread back at Kenji's. "Hold the record" may be a bit boastful, but what I mean is I don't believe anyone ever posted proof of going faster than that in GT1.

    What's more, I still have my PS and GT1 and a saved replay of that run on a memory card. Really.
