Hey guys, just had a bit of a thought

Is there a program where we can setup some form of calender to list future events ????

Maybe have the calender setup away from the threads itself......

Things like the cruises that occur, maybe someone is competing at a rally and lists those events, we could find the big events like Chryslers on the Murray....and try and get a good amount of people to go.

So basically when ever someone shows interest in an event, they maybe attending (and our cars qualify for that event), put a link on the calender and try and organise a couple of people to go

Who knows, if you get the events listed early enough, you may enough time to finish off the car, get time off work, budget for the event or whatever the case may be

Imagine a dozen or so of our cars at the Easter(Commodore)nats???...........for eg


Just a thought, nothing else

Just for the record, I like it

I also approve, we could also add swap meets and the bigger car shows.

You can add what you like as far as events go

You could even colour code them with blue for cyrsler dedicated events, red for mitsubishi only or white for either

Can an event calender be added to the forum, only to be altered by mods of course.
I am looking at the nerds now

i'll ring Sherlock Holmes, he'll find them

Unfortunately, I'm not nerdy enough for this task

i'm sure someone is tho,

What about 84GKSIG, he's quite cluey with computers and electronics

I also like the idea. I use a couple of sites with in built calendars very handy.
This site is great for swap meet updates http://www.bevenyoung.com.au/car.htm

I PM'd GC75, 84GKSIG and Cottees and Cottees is the first nerd out of the gates and is looking for some sort of plug in???

I dont know if this site is registered as a car club, but if it is, you can organise hill climbs and time trials etc. Get the road temporarily closed for the event

spunds like a great idea, but the cost to organise such an event would be out of this clubs reach, u might as well hire a purpose built racetrack......like the idea tho

S-G is not a registered club, just a forum for like minded people to share thought's and knowledge.

It would be cool if this forum turned into a car club. Then we could all get Car Club Rego XD.. $80 per year haha

hahaha, now ur talking!!!

I need more info on this, I am a member of a car club and I just paid $193 for 3 months rego

being a car 'club' in multiple states, u may find that the club rego would be impossible as the rego laws (and pricing) are all different according to what state.........

Alot of the bigger car clubs (usually the classic ford and holden clubs) all have divisions in any particular state.....so they can get the club rego

I am a member of SMASA (Street Machine Association of South Australia) and I want cheap rego damn it

you go girl

closing a section of road is a LOT of work and red tape
better off entering an event someone else has set up

and Scorpma82 - it's actually pretty cheap and easy to hire a racetrack.
ring the track, ask if they hire it out for private track days, ask what you need to do, get a price.
get a few mates and mates of mates together, say 15 or 20
divide cost of track hire by number of mates
collect money
ring the track, book a day. weekdays are cheaper.
go to the track on the right day with your mates
nail it
win

back on topic - yes, calendar sounds good
we use one on the sa celica forum and it is handy, but people tend to actually read the Club Cruises and Events thread, or the Other Events thread.
if anyone is going to an event, they post it up in Other Events so others can enter too, or come watch.

As Damo said it is a good idea but how much use will it get? Maybe if we could have a banner style notice across the page listing the following weekends events from the calendar?
