I'm sure AZHitman is old enough to remember the evolution of Nico *cough*

That's cool as hell!!!

I remember when I stumbled across NICO before it switched to vBulletin. I spent a lot of time on 240sx.org... and then we got swollowed whole by the beast that is NICO!!!!! Man... the old forum layout (pre-vBulliten) seems so antiquiated now.

Yeah, those links to NICO's past aren't actually all that old. We had an even older design. Those were all within the last 2 1/2 to 3 years.

You still dont have the new Nico look (IMO).

go to user cp / edit options /style set and you can change the defalt setting to severeal others.I like NeXusBlue best.

If rex called you in 98, it was unrelated to NICO. Unless it was because he was tossing around the idea. NICO started in 2000. I became a member in 2000, but didn't actually meet rex until 2001.

this is how nico started.at that time it was just nissan infiniti owners club.at that time there were 2 cars in thye readers ride section,an old datsun and a g20,then rexs car.with everone jumping all about.those are the roots.at that time i wanted to spend 25-30,000 on my car in extras.i was just a little faster than brm.buy the time they wanted to do my coilovers i was already a step ahead.or i would of had brm make them.hands down

oh i remember when you got here easy..i turned down the chance to moderate for j30's...mayhems doing ngreat.all you are.

Post by **UncleBen** » Thu Apr 01, 2004 3:09 am

I had been around on 240sx.org for a long time, then went to nothing but NICO, I guess when the vbulletin started. Seems like such a long time ago. Man I remember those small Bowling Green meets we had with nothing but like 10 moderators from louisville, and me and redrocket and cnichols. haha, good ole days.

When I became a moderator, there were only 3 moderators on NICO. That was because our server company only allowed 3 moderators for the entire site (that was when we ran UBB forums).

If I remember right, it was me, Phil (garak), and Rex. Phil I believe got replaced by Fred.

And thats when it all went downhill!!!

Just kididng, Fred is a hell of an admin!!!! Deserves the "senior administrator" title...

Anybody know if that wayback machine can get back posts from the Ring?
