Reply to "De Tomaso Registry Updates"

To all the fans,
making a registry is a great idea BUT
it s only a good idea when the job done is correctly done.
To do this, you need official factory papers, which in the case of Ben Thier is not the case.

In the GR3 section, you already have 2 wrong chassis numbers in your 3 cars database !!!!!

Which is not a good start !

By publishing theses errors, you just show to the world that your knowledge is very limited.

But it don t give to the DT community any help, as what s neeed the DT community is less information but better quality.

Now, I fully understand that as you didn t spend thousands of hours in the archives of De Tomaso, it s very difficult or impossible for you to verify the information that people may send to you. ( When it s not invented from Scratch )

As you see, theses types of research cost a lot of money if you want to do it correctly, and publishing incorrect infos is only a way to put yourself in a wrong position.

Now, you cannot also take others people works and use it for your own goods.

My advice is simple if you realy want to do a correct registry which need to be based from official factory documentation.
Less infos but 100 % accurate.
Now to realise this, you will need to spend a lots of time to verify any words send to you by the owners of the cars.

To have a real GR3, you need more than a special engine in your car !

DT is a great marque, they have made great cars but to help to build a better image, the people involve in the internet DT activity need to publish quality infos and works ( Like Dave Adler, who did may be the best magazine DT in the world )

We don t see Ferrari internet website who publish as a 288 a 308 custimised !
