So after I made !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! for fellow Opponauts to add each other to !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , we got like 40 people on there, and the founders of Wheelwell took notice. I got a message from one of the co-founders to ask if I'd like to try out their new Clubs feature which is still in beta. I said hell yes, and the Oppositelock Club was born.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Functionality so far is fairly limited, so right now all you can do pretty much is just join the club. I will be checking the group regularly and adding everyone's main rides to the Vehicles of Oppositelock. Eventually you'll be able to add your cars yourselves, but currently only club admins can do so. Only currently owned vehicles can be added.

More stuff is coming, here is the quote from co-founder Micheal Gonzales:

"Yup, it's totally in it's infancy as a feature. Soon there will be much more, including a "wall" for members to share and communicate with each other. There will also be an improved landing page that will allow the Club to have more real estate to market itself (e.g. images, about, etc)."

So if you would like to join the cool kids, just follow this link here and add yourself to the group:

They took notice, because OPPO is awesome.

Check out the latest addition to my garage. =)

It's weird how it's downloaded some of my cars to the "Vehicles" tab but not all of them.

So right now I'm actually the one adding those vehicles to the list, and I'm sort of just adding the "Jalop" rides and not the more daily driver types, which is why I included your bugs and ST and not your Ranger. Also, previously owned cars can't be added.

Not sure if I should just add all vehicles or pick and choose. Soon each member will be able to choose which rides they can include themselves.

I think the fleetwood needs to make a trip to your local autocross course!

Garrett Davis > Cherry_man1 02/19/2015 at 18:02

Right now only club admins can do so, so I'll go in and add them now.

Vehicles marked previously owned can't be added anyway, so we're good!

They're in.

Sweet, man! Thanks! It's cool they took notice for us!

Garrett Davis > Cherry_man1 02/19/2015 at 18:10

Yeah, I've been emailing him back and forth. They've been super responsive so far.

I mean with the smoking tire always talking about them they are getting good exposure.

Garrett Davis > Cherry_man1 02/19/2015 at 18:12

True. I think that was huge in blowing them up recently. That's how I found them.

I feel odd being the one person in the group with no vehicle!

I knew of them but once OPPO got involved I was like yes. Kinda reminds me of CarThrottles Garage system a little.

Meh, technically the Jetta isn't my vehicle but my parents. I just call it mine because I drive it 80% of the time.

Do you really not have a car? Or just haven't added one yet?

Wait, you don't drive? Or do you just not have your own car?

Either way I needed a car because school is across town (30 miles each way)

Cherry_man1 > Garrett Davis 02/19/2015 at 18:27

Also I got one like on my Gran Torino on WW and it's from one of the Staff members.

Haha, not yet, though It is a goal of mine to get on either One Take or /Tuned especially after this current build is done.

CTS-V brake upgrade, wider track, upgraded steering rack, Stage II T-56 rebuild, and one nasty nasty little NA engine.

I’m excited as well. Engine has been out of the car since August.

Got a Fays2 Watts link inbound, the closest I can get to an IRS handling characteristic without extensive fab work on my end.
