Sure, but I can't read about updates of your site
When I post used car dealership updates to the site, I update the GT5 Cars news page (which also has an RSS feed), this thread, the used car database thread, the GT5 Cars facebook profile, and the @gt5cars twitter feed. Is there another way I could better send out news of updates?

Should I offer my help to them, or they are already collecting data you are going to add to the db?
I suggest that you post in the used car database thread with which day you are on, and see if they have already logged those days. If not, logging your data and sending it to them will help me, as when they collect it they'll eventually post it, and then I can add it to the GT5 Cars website. It's possible that they've already logged your current UCD position, in which case your post might prompt them to post their latest data, which I can then integrate into GT5 Cars.

Do these responses answer your questions?

Has it been long enough since I updated the site? Yes, I think so.

Car List Update: I have integrated the latest update from famine and the other folks in the master car list thread. Forty new cars, and lots of minor statistics updates. Next up, trying to integrate the new used car dealership information. There are only like 40 new pages in that thread. Should be epic. :D

Since all of the gt5cars.net data come from this forum, and famine (a mod) knows that and has pointed people to the site, I've assumed that he's OK with it.

I have no ads, and make no money from the site, it's purely done as a hobby. I have yet to receive any objection from any of the mods here at GTPlanet in the year or so the site has been up.

I greatly appreciate the work done by famine and others to compile the lists and images used on gt5cars.net, and have thanked them in the gt5cars.net credits page, and multiple times on this forum.

Did you have any other concerns?

I've just loaded the latest lists from Tornado Alley and the crew. We now have over 38,000 used car listings online and searchable! http://gt5cars.net/used_car_searches/new

A big "thank you" for the heads-up, encoded. I appreciate all the work that you and your guys have done. It's a great resource that I've used and recommended repeatedly. In my opinion, it's one of the most valuable tools available to a GT5 player, especially those who collect WAY too many cars (like me).
 
This site is still my number for searching, there are a few incorrect thumbnails around still though, shall I post them when I find them?
 
This site is fantastic, I desperately need that ultra rare Chapparal 2d, 1293 days...ugh. Lol. Anyways, I have been tracking my own data for every car I buy, or win. Im only up to 1998 cars but I have done some tests on them including acceleration data and top speed. If you would like the info for your site I will gladly send it your way.

Acceleration was calculated as I received them on their default tire settings, with no modifications added. So new cars were tested new and used cars tested used. Same for top speed. Acceleration was calculated using Special Stage route x's speed test function and is an average of 3 runs, since how well you get off can affect your times. Top speed was a one time deal.

All the racecars and tuned cars were run in their default state. no suspension changes or transmission changes.

Let me know if you want some of the data. I'm sure the acceleration data is too subjective, and too based on user skill to post to your site, but the top speed is very solid. You wil get the same results every time (give or take 0.1 MPH)
 
I just noticed what I wrote may be kind of confusing. I don't have 1,998 cars, I have only compiled data on cars dated 1998 and earlier. I will be attempting to collect all cars first before continuing, just to make organization easier.
