I think if it keeps growing at the rate it has been, it will be even bigger, unless Julio decides to sell and whomever buys it shuts this ***** down.

I think that IA has more staying power than any other forum that i visit. Its because its all local people so that helps out alot.

laws will get stricter
emmisions inspections will get harder
people will stop racing
eventually everyone here will sell/total their cars


thus meaning it will be the end of the "scene" as we know it.

It will probably be around as long as there are cars in the Atlanta/GA area. I don't know if I will be here since I am eager to move away from Georgia as soon as I'm done with college.

Same here. I'll be staying in GA for about 1-1/2 years before moving out, after college. Going to the ...Far Far East. If IA's around, maybe I'll be posting. Maybe even then they'll have invented a way to Neg rep IRL.

Here are my 10 year predicitons:


- Yousef will still be gay and a virgin.
- Ran and I will become millionaires creating porn starring girls that look extremely underage but are "barely legal"
- Mr.Kidd will be a secretary at Top Speed
- Paul will be driving the new Beetle and without a job since his wife will make the big bucks.
- Brett will be turning 110 and will have gone through three mid life crisis's.
- All the car clubs on IA will have dissolved because everyone eventually grew up and got real jobs and families.
- All the young kids with cars that were purchased by their parents will then be driving midsize sedans because the "real world" slapped them the **** in the face.
-The Whoreslounge and Red Light District will no longer be here because along with censorship, the site will not sell without the removal of these items.
-Everyone will be a self proclaimed photographer.
-Tunerfest will have been hit by a hurricane 10 years in a row.


hmmm thats all I can think of lol

since the beginning of cars there has been racing and a car "scene" and it's not going to stop. this site might stop, but the "scene" will still be around.

laws will get stricter (Agreed)
emmisions inspections will get harder (Agreed)
people will stop racing (NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
eventually everyone here will sell/total their cars (Kinda Agree)


thus meaning it will be the end of the "scene" as we know it.

Since automobiles have been reasonably obtainable by the public there has been racing, and as long as people have cars they will race them.
As for everyone selling and totaling their cars, thats true most of us will grow out of the car seen and drive Camry's and SUV's.
As for the tuner scene still being around I doubt it, face it folks we are a dieing breed.

On Topic: IA will probably still be here. Maybe under a different name and ownership, but none the less it will still be here.
