Any idea why the forum came up like this after a web search?

Easiest way to explain is via screenshot.

It was a google search in firefox, for "pistonheads forum". The first result after the sponsored ad for PH, when clicked came up as this:

the forum title is linked as "Bitza Racing".



Not really a website issue per se, but I couldn't really find anywhere else to ask...

Not just you. I did the same search on Google on Safari, the second result is the same as yours


Very odd. The web address seems correct.

I think it was a way for some people to access PH at work when the main site was blocked?

Makes sense.
The forum index is quite limited though:

Ahhh. Thanks guys.

Clears that up then, although it was way back in 2010!.

I thought I'd found the secret rear entrance...

Bitza for locosts

Hsv.org.uk for Holdens

Porkers.co.uk for Porsches etc.

Ah, happy days… Bitza Racing was the monica for when I raced Locosts. At the time Ted/Dan kindly hosted my website and it appears I had my own dedicated (Locost) corner of PH. As the site was pretty popular in its own right, it seems that google gives it a decent ranking. Fame at last!

My eternal thanks to (Petrol)Ted and Dan (not sure of PH nickname, so let’s just say ‘ex PH hosting Carrenza Dan) for hosting my sites for many years, as mates.

Tear of nostalgia and all that 😉

Stig - the OG y’all 😉

Awful things, Locosts. Obliterated crops and people starved. Also bully bugs as well, I saw a documentary about it on TV.
