Default new here, how do you join ESC

Hi all
I am new here, have recently bought a 53 plate WRX and have been busy ordering and fitting bits to it. I didnt realise there was an essex branch to scoobynet until i stumbled across it in another thread. So how do you become a member of ESC ???? BTW i live in SWF, are there any other members in same place, i have seen a couple of nice scoobys around the town.

blimey budgemeister, you missed a chance of deflecting someone towards the MSOC posse !!! (or couple as we know them)!!!

must be getting soft in your advancing years.....

if mags could see you now hahaahahhah


welcome scoobyed, scan about the essex section and you'll soon see whats what!!

basically the easiest way is to go up to anyone at a meet and say "im Ed, a newbie" and shake hands with them, thats the best way. dont sit in your car in the corner of carpark, like we have all done in the past!!!

enjoy it, great club, and the best people

Hi Ed

You need this SIDC link first to join the SIDC which gets you VIP parking & reduced entry into some good shows during the year as well as offering track days if your into that. The ESC is the Essex branch of the SIDC.

The Premier membership at the top just gets you extra privileges on this site (ScoobyNet). The site itself is free for a basic user.

To get this under your name you need to :-

Click on User CP at top left of the page
Scroll down to Paid Subscriptions & Click
Find Essex Scooby Crew Badge & Click drop down box to order.

Jobs as good un.

The Lodge is the 3rd Thursday of every month.

More about events & PINK shirts CLICK HERE

Flat Eric,
thanks for the pointer but i am that bad on computers all i can find is the options for premium membership under the paid subscriptions bit so i now have premium membership but no ESC bit. Will try and make the lodge depending on my shift patterns at work.

Hi Ed & Welcome buddy

The ESC badge button is broke @ the moment but will be up & running shortly

As Flat Eric mentioned ( everything ) We are the Essex branch of the SUBARU IMPREZA DRIVERS CLUB = SIDC ) So join that & you are in , If you do not like purchasing on line , drop me a pm with your address & i'll drop you in an application form to join , I'm only up the road in Mayland

As Dazza said pop along to a meet & say hello

Thanks for all the replies, this has to be about the friendliest forum i have ever been a member of, i always join a forum for whatever car/bike i have at the time and most of them are pretty boring and have some rude pissatking tossers who arent prepared to give genuine help and friendly advice thus spoiling the forum for others, everyone on here seems to get along and have a good laugh. I will definitely get along to a meet and can definitely make the lodge next month. thank you all for your warm welcome.

Hi Scoobyed and welcome. Me and scoobybluewrx are newish members of the ESC and have found the club members to be friendly and welcoming always something going on.
Tomorrow day out at brighton check out the thread. Or better still be at Thurrock services at 8.15am leaving sharp 8.30am don`t have to be an official member to start joining in. Anyway you won`t have to wear a pink T shirt walking round brighton. LOL

PS Budgie I know I said newish this has nothing to do ewes.

He`s got this thing about sheep at the moment bless him.

Ok to join officially you will need the following.....

Your car must flame...but ONLY with the aid of a spark plug and a switch ...this must NOT occur naturally



You will need to learn how to do this if you want to rise to the top within the group

YouTube - Extreme Sheep LED Art

And you will need a starter set of these first tho`....

I strap a few Christmas Tree lights to our hamster,

and finally I spot your deliberate mistake

Knitting needles come in PAIRS - or flocks!

Welcome Ed, i'm a newbie here too. I went to my first meet at the Lodge on Thursday and had a great time.

And they really are as ugly as their pictures Thats the drivers not their cars

Think I may have just set a record for the shortest membership

Scoobyed- You'll need one of these too...



Being a bit camp will help too, especially when they make you wear a pink shirt!!

And if you want to join a real meet then check out the southern section for details of sundays meet/jaunt, you'll be more than welcome. Most of the ESC defect over to our way anyway.

And can anybody explain why i need a bloke in a silly hat sat on a three wheeled thing attatched to a kite?????? makes no sense to me LOL
