What Ron Folck Thinks Of This Site

It is a truly decitated site and is a tribute to the 510 owners all over the world. I was the guy who started it and can look back with a lot of pride on it all.

I did envision the 510 club far into the future and thought the club could influence the Nissan factory to build a modern 510 in mogalar form that could be build from a standard car and by adding parts from the factory to go from family to a street racer. I think the 510 club should band together politically  with all the car clubs to lobby Nissan. Yes you can control them if you try. Don't think like kids you guys are young MEN and Nissan thinks of you as just kids that are just enthusiasts.
