I agree with Dave that things need to be addressed. I for one
have not given the club the attention that it deserves due to
many factors going on in my life.

First off, I would like to appologize for not making it to Dyno Day.
I had full intention of making it there (even had my room reserved),
but at the last minute I dropped a bolt into my intake and was not
able to bring my car. At the very last minute I decided not to go to
dyno day (and almost didnt come up to Georgia at all) because I had
worked for a week straight to get my car up there that weekend. This
threw me into a tail spin and to say the least, I was dissappointed and
upset about it and it clouded my judgement. The other thing that
happened to me that weekend was my cellphone blacked out. I had
no screen whatsoever, so I was not able to call anyone from my phone
book, nor was I able to see who was calling me. I have all my numbers
for club members on there and couldnt call anyone to let them know
that I wasnt coming. Im not trying to make excuses, but I wanted
everyone to know what occurred and why I was missing in action!

One of the problems with the club is that other then the 3 founding
members (Zen, Dave & Myself), no one ever stepped up and offered
assistance to help with writing news letters, organizing club events,
and keeping the club on track. This left most of the work to a couple
of people. In the beginning we were all much better at keeping up
on things, but as time went on and the club grew, life got in the way
for most of us. In recent times we tried to elect club officials, but I dont
think that anyone stepped up for the other positions besides president.

In regards to club funds, which Dave mentioned in his post, we do
still have club funds from our very own Dyno Day that we organized
in Tampa. I still have this money in an envelope and never got around
to opening a Club bank account.

In regards to the Uk members that want to start a chapter, I have
been in contact with bug-er (Adam) from the UK and we have emailed
back and forth on several occassions. At this point he told me that
most of the potentional UK members were attending a big car show
and they were going to try and meet to discuss the future of a UK Chapter.

I am more then willing to make the needed adjustments to the club to
get it back on track, whatever actions that may mean.

I am available any night this week as well. :agree:
