You need to ask the mods. Send a PM and they will hopefully do it.

Default weekend run out

anyone interested in a summer drive out to watch a bit of drifting http://www.driftone.co.uk/about-drif...-drift-circuit

its about 36 miles form the (Subaru owners club of Manchester) pub meet.
its only an idea at the moment seeing as were a new club and testing the water to see what everyone fancy's doing .

no dates as yet , food is available on site, it will be a weekend, and hopefully summer will be warm good excuse to wash & polish the scoob's and take it for a run on the back roads.

DISCOUNT MIGHT BE AVAILABLE FOR GROUP BOOKINGS BUT WE'LL LOOK INTO THAT

PLEASE LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK

There doesn't seam to be much interaction going on between members on here...really hope there's no need for concern??
I will be starting a new thread shortly to create a list of those that are coming to next months meet. If you could all post your name and your car ie: Nick -99 Blue Classic
That was I can keep a track of numbers but also we all have a rough idea of who will be there.
Also the NBO is an obvious event we want to attend....now to have our own club section we need 12 Cars so your continued support is vital.
We should be getting some club stickers made up maybe by next meet but definitely by March....These will not incur you guys any costs as I have found a company who are willing to put our nsme alongside theirs kind of like assponsorship. ...would you guys be willing to give a bit of free advertising? ??
The sponsorship company is call RAW AUTOMOTIVE check out thier website.!!!
I want to keep fee's and costs for the club minimal guys so the sponsorship seams ideal to me.
Anyway if you can all keep up the good work with the ideas and all add your name to the list when it's created that would be great.
Thanks Nick

Sounds a great idea to me, they get a bit of sponsorship and we get free stickers. If it falls through cointact Rob Day on here as he makes stickers as part of his business. He will doubtless help us out if we need it.

One thing we could also do is get some small business card sized cards made up as if you see a nice Scoob parked up around Manchester you can stick it under their wiper or if you see the owner give it to them.

That's how LADS found me many moons ago.

also drop some club info into the likes of prosport etc cards are a good idea along with a sticker in the window in there as Pete doesnt mind


another one to top is get your club logo on the nurburgring like ours were even in the game gran turismo

That would be so kool to get the club name on something like the nurburgring and gran turismo.....especially when it's something I have started. Keep the tips coming

And members just think a bit of effort from us all and we can make SOCOM huge

Mate of mine has a garage in Stockport where plenty of subaru owners (some on Scoobynet) take there cars to him (taylormotors) sure if we could get some cards made up he'd give them out to them.
