I'd just like to add my support to the effort you chaps are putting in to forming a club. I know that it takes a lot of time and effort to sort all this sort of stuff out, it is appreciated.
As has probably already been said I believe a club to support Haynes builders is a very good idea.
I was up at Stoneleigh on Sunday and put a few faces to names; sorry I could not make it to the inaugural meeting in the evening but here is my two-penneth’s worth:
An active forum is the best asset a club can have. The only thing that is in the back of my mind is that the forum (as I understand it) belongs to and is administered by Haynes. If we were to set up our own web site and use the Haynes forum, we ought to, out of respect, gain Haynes' permission to link to it and advertise the forum as the 'official' Haynes Sports Car Club's forum. I believe that the fostering of a good relationship with the administrators of the Haynes Forum is of fundamental importance to the future of our club. Can we try to establish a point of contact between the club and whoever is responsible for the forum within Haynes?
I'm afraid I don't have too much to offer the club but I have been told I have a bit of a 'thing' with respect to punctuation, grammar and spelling so if you need anything proof read (e.g. web-site articles, news letters), when the time comes, I could be your man!
Keep up the good work.
