when people get trash talking on the net, and you are mixing it with high speed forms of 'motorsport' id personally kick the idiots in the nuts

I think this is a top idea and will make discounts sharing of info etc easier however as stated it will need to be moderated tightly as there are those on here who would have the complete wrong attitude for the section.

well they dont call me the nazi mod for nothing
As I said in all seriousness, due to the fact motorsport is very dangerous potentially. You would need ALOT of control of a section

Yes totally Mr Nazi
ive only done one track day and it was abundandtly clear that any straying from the rules would be dangerous. People need to understand its not a race and if the rules are followed then theres a high chance you will come away largely unscathed

depends on who you go with and when.
£450 for a full day seems average I think...
some were £300 end of last year... More my thing tbh, any knob can pay 21E to do a lap

Discussion about Maturity
Most the premium members seem mature to me. Maybe make it premium only section?
Just food for thought.

by the sounds of it, the vast majority of users in that section seem like they will be mature. The idiots will be in the minority and easy just to ignore. They will soon get bored with the 'mature' chat/discussion and go back to their usual forum haunts.
To be honest, with the repuation the sterotypical saxo owner has, i think a section that promotes mature, sensible and useful discussion will be a big step forward and get us someway towards how 106 rallye is typically viewed.
