I'm just concerned the forums rep is going to take a hit this summer, all because a lot of the core team don't seem bothered about making an appearance at meets when they've said they will.
What happens when a meet is organised and all that turn up is three noobs who have never met each other before? It's got to be a fairly good bet they'd lose a lot of faith in the club and probably go away thinking it's not worth it.
You guys know this community is important to me and i'm not just trying to cause arguments. Maybe i'm blowing this out of proportion, but i'm making an issue of this because i think it's a genuine problem.
I think your not realising though that most people dont turn up not because they cant be bothered but because of money issues. Its alright for you. It costs you about £1.20 to drive the entire length of the country. Even when i turn up to meets in the work car i get moaned at because im not in the 6. Turning up to meets is a luxury and ive been saving money for the two busiest shows of the year this year for us so i can make it to them but that also means ive got less money a month to go to smaller meets. I know im not the only person to be doing this! Its just petty really, people whining because other people have good reason not to show up. And granted you do get the odd one or two who dont turn up because they cant be arsed but i dont think you will find thats any of the main members on here.
/Rant over
Im assuming the engine isnt going in the car this weekend Jonny seeing as youve spent it making epic win pipes? lol
