How does one know if one is "old skool" or "original"?

I was at the last one so I will probably turn up anyway.

Normally, I would've said if you can remember Nik, Ewan and Mark the Drunk downing brews and making us all laugh, the 'Purple People Eater', too many Andrews to count, trivia before iPhones, Jerra's particularly cold(boosting)evenings, Integra Automotive, HKS Type 1 EBC's, wondering which one or if any of the girls were going to show up, Race Snooze's wicked white thing, you'd be 'old school', but now I'm more inclined to think it's a frame of mind. If your Skyline is a 'keeper', not to be chopped in on the next 'fad' car, you respect the numbers 30 through 34, realise the faux pas of incorrect model badging, love knowing your marque is the reason it's a two-taxi race at The Mountain...you get the idea. Thoughts?!?

I remember all of those people...

But the ultimate "Old Skool" moment was when we all bet James $20 that he wouldnt snort a line of salt... We lost :D

    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
    • That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together 
    • I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
