Just out of curiosity,

how do you guys maintain a site like this? The bandwidth must be atleast 1000/month and I really dont see any advertisements either.

Since the vids are no more available to everybody, bandwidth consumption is not very high at the moment BTW :D and well, let's say our sweet Jabba (:P) has the passion needed to keep such place alive :D and if you have the passion, it's always easier to invest money in it :)

Funded by the bank of Jabba so that we can bring you JW free of charge.

Thanks for picking up on the lack of advertisements as well. :wink:

I prefer to have members posting good content rather than money to be honest...and that is something I hope we can all benefit from.

We sure can. I have been a car nut all my life and read/viewed all car related stuff that looked interesting I could get my hands on, but since I've been at JW I even learned a great deal more about cars.

Me too..... supercars used to be my main interest but since the arrival of RF and JW I have been able to expand my knowledge into other categories of cars as well....also I think watching the varied amount of car programmes we have on here gives you something of a car related education as well.

Love ya sig as always. 8) 8) 8)

Thanks :D Love ya avatar as always! :wink: (well, apart from the one with the angry fat guy)

I usually focus on evo cars as well. evo just describes it best I think because it's not just supercars, but also hot hatches etc. Cars that are about performance, whatever category they may be in. No need to say supercars always come first though. Even in that category I have learned some new stuff. For instance, I was never too keen on Porsches (still not a fan of the 911, Cayenne and Boxster), but thanks to st-anger I know a lot more about them. You should have seen my dad's face when we saw the GT3 on TG I instantly recognised it as a GT3 and told him that it was a car to be reckoned with! :D That I said that even scared myself a little!

Yes I know what you mean...I was extremely impressed with that car myself and that has to be one of my favourite TG videos ever....especially as the old stigg (my favourite) almost lost it coming into the final corner.

did you know if you have a site with an advertising bar at the bottom you can use a few lines of java to automatically redirect you to the single frame with no advertising :)

Yes but its important that I can prove that I receive no revenue from this site due to the nature of some of the material on here.
