As for Tampa Racing.com being the main car enthusiast source in the state of Florida,
there are hundreds of people reading Tampa Racing.com 's calendar of events every night.
When someone clicks, here:
https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/forum.php
There is an entire page of car events to go to.

I mean a YouTube channel with car news/car reviews/parts reviews, more social media involvement(Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Google+)

I may be exaggerating, but that was the hope I had right after I joined the site. I even though of volunteering or doing an internship if one day TR would be the main car enthusiast source in the state of FL.

Here are a few URLs that support what I said about who/what drove people
away from Tampa Racing.com and show what I am talking about.

Draw your own conclusions, Yako. There are some holes in some threads.......... when people asked to leave TR, some of their postings went away and some people on another website blame everyone but themselves for everything.... lol

Years ago Admin Zate said that the type stuff people were posting would drive people away from Tampa Racing.com
https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/pi...ous-admin.html

Zate was proven right when people quit posting. See post 14 of this URL

So we had offered suggestions. As it turned out, our suggestions were used to create another website. Websites are not created in 30 seconds. When I pointed out that a former moderator was creating his own site and advertising his new site on TR, he banned me. See post 2 of this URL:
https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/pi...e-may-ask.html

In the URL below, posts #1 and #10......notice how someone was treated who offered a suggestion.... lol What do you think is the result of treating local businesses in the way that you see? What is the result as far as businesses sponsoring anything car-related?

Yes, folks. You are hearing my answer to another person asking what happened.
You are also seeing the URL's where you can read it for yourself.

The words they wrote and the things they said don't change.
Read it yourself.

A general principle: If you don't want others to know what you said and did
then you should quit saying and doing what you are ashamed of.-Bob

Señor Honda is biased to what happened and is not telling the truth of what happened. A lot of us left and are on another website.

It's been Almost a year and a half of when we all left and tampa racing is still in the same condition it was when we were still here. Bobs only concern is to point out what he believes happened and not rebuilding the site. We also tried to make amends with him at car shows but he refuses to make amends.

Every thread he creates or posts in he keeps repeating what he thinks happened to TampaRacing. It doesn't change the fact that TampaRacing is still in the poor condition before we all left.

Senor Bob has done nothing to help fix, Re establish this website. Internet Brands also abandoned this website.

Also, TampaRacing has no official race/Sponcered events. tampaRacing isn't doing anything in the car scene. Internet Brands has also been contacted by several places and also involving Lawyers to stop advertising certain events as their own events.

This place is dead. It's still good to look up old threads for info, but it isn't good for anything else.

The first link on post #12 didn't work for me. I don't want to take any side or jump into conclusions, as a regular member of TR I'm not in the position to judge since I wasn't even around when it happened.

On another hand, I still want to take part in TR. I use my phone more than my PC. Nobody wants to upload a photo to a hosting site first, then copy the code, then sign up to TR and paste the code.

Yako, No problem.
In post #12 of this very thread, when I clicked all four links, they worked for me.
https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/p...e-may-ask.html
https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/p...redit-due.html
https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/p...ey-ib-tim.html
https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/p...-my-reply.html
When some former members chose to leave the site, some of their posts in those four links went with them.

Anyone from another site who says my every post says the same thing has not read
the many forums that I have posted on. There are two Tampa Racing.com forums for instance, in general Car Chat that have over 1,000+ views, which is another fact the folks from some other site
choose to ignore. The people who come from some other site and keep dual memberships on Tampa Racing.com have NEVER sent me a PM with a URL that supports 1,000+ views from their
own site, but they constantly ignore that hundreds of people read Tampa Racing.com every night.

Anyone clicking here: https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/forum.php and scrolling down can see
how many people are reading on Tampa Racing.com at any hour. 575 at 1Am (right now).

While I see allegations that IB has ruined other car sites, I have never ONCE had
someone reply back to me with anything close to evidence of which sites were ruined.

I suspect that a claim about Tampa Racing.com that cannot be supported comes from
some other site instead of the poster, and accusations from some other site have
NEVER been shown to be true. Most people call it "some other sites bs".
