10 short years ago, a small website was launched for a small group of friends to talk about cars, share car maintenance tips and arrange get togethers and car cruises. It was in the late hours of May 13th that the site was originally up and running on a spare PC that was sitting around collecting dust. Hours of configuration and tweaking later, the forum was officially open to the public–the time was 1:23am on May 14th.

It did not take long for our forum membership to grow but as it grew, the community was tighter than ever. Over all these years our members have built some great relationships, met tons of auto enthusiasts, started new businesses and careers and made some great memories. I just want to say thank you for all the awesome friendships and wonderful memories that the Beyond community has helped build. A huge thank you goes out each and every one of our members who have helped build and shape beyond into what it is today. An equally big thank you to all of our moderators, sponsors and media partners because without your help and support we would not have made it to 10 years.
