UK based GL club

Hey
I am thinking of trying to organise a UK based germanlook club as there is currently not one set up. The idea behind it would be to have dyno days, meetings and displays at some of the shows. Currently the numbers of Germanlookers in the UK seems small but there are alot more uk based cars on line. Anyone want to come out and play???
US based GL clubs - do any of you fancy a UK chapter?? would it be possible for a uk based club to get space on the forum???
thanks
Adam

I'm sure there would be strong support for a UK GL club, as the number of GL cars around is steadily increasing and due the performance nature of our cars, most owners would be up for some dyno / track day / drag race action. :agree:

I for one would certainly join, even though my car is far from complete, it should be done sometime next year. :yawn:

I am genuinely surprised there is not a UK-based GL club. Good luck.

I know you have been in contact with Zen from VKG as he has forwarded
your email to me as well. We are both in agreement and would be more
then willing to allow you to start a UK Chapter of the VolkSport Kafer Gruppe.

We could help you with the following:
1. Club rules & regulations
2. Logos, T-Shirts & Misc Club stuff
3. Perhaps a Volksport.co.uk website linked to our site.
Zen could probably design it for you guys as well for
a small fee. Plus he offers hosting for low monthly rates.

Let me know....
Joe

Ah I was wondering about that! thought you had thought it a bad idea or something!
I think that may be the best idea, saves having to design logos and stuff!!
btw whats up with your website at the moment?

Zen is trying to fix it, he just has been swamped with work.
It should be back up soon.

well as frequently as possible would be good
Depends on where the majority of people are, at the moment there are several up north, couple in midlands and a few down south.
