Hey I'm Brandon from Whitby. I'm a computer programmer.. yes I'm a nerd and no I won't fix your computer.
Found this site while looking around and groups on facebook no less. I've been looking around and I love the range of vehicles on here without anyone doing any vehicular "discrimination", which you find in some places (to old, to new, wrong make).

Always loved cars but it wasn't till I got my 85 Olds that I got more involved with it mechanically. I'm still learning about things but I got the basics and hope to learn more and figured this was a good place to start!

This is my first car... Waiting on a new motor since the 22 year old motor died on me.
'88 Cutlass Supreme


And here is my summer car, Still doing things to it and replacing things here and there.
'85 Cutlass Supreme



Thanks for looking!

Nice cars and welcome to the site.
Even if there are some on here that are brand loyal and really, most of us are, The site is about cars no matter what the make or model is.
Computer programmer eh? No I don't need you to fix my computer but maybe you could help out on the site a bit.
Read the we have been hacked thread.

Ya, I guess everyone has their specific brand.. but its nice to not see any GTFO for driving something.
You gotta make sure your not displaying or allowing what they call SQL injection.. not sure how much you know about the back end of these though. Also make sure the admin has a strong password and certain files ahve special permissions.
I recently just set up the website and forum for The Durham G-Bodys Car Club thats just starting out (15 members so far but non on our forum :P).

Ya, I picked it up a month ago from a guy near peterborough. He recently bought a house and with his truck, bike and atv he had to get rid of something. Its a silver base coat with this rainbow flake in the first clear coat, Looks siver in most lighting but if you get the right angle you can see the sparkle.

Some of it is beyond my talent lol.
I also own a dakota site hosted from the same account as this one but have someone else look after it for me. I asked him to poke around the control panel for me when he gets a chance.
My main problem is I can not access my own admin section right now.

[Brandon]

well thats no good lol
The other guy may be able to access the table and get your password and stuff in the sql database.... depending on how its set up.

Rob aka Daksport is working on it now. He already got me access to the admin panel and is seeing what he can do with the rest of it as I type this.

All fixed now.

Glad to here it man!

never fun trying to get back into your admin account when you get locked out
