Sau Act Club?

[luke gtr]

   

Not to mention, SAU NSW is having a hard enough time finding 5 people to stand to be the elected committee that is needed by CAMS to be able to run the club... Imagine how well SAU ACT would go...

tis a shame.

i was nominated, but dont feel i have the experience to be a positive contributor to the nominated committee.

perhaps next year?

I think ACT Should have their own slightly changed logo from NSW, just to let us be different(:

To be on that exec you need three things:

Motivation

Time

Patience

Do you have those three things? If you do and you can think for yourself, go for it.

Hop to making one then. Or are you going to join the normal clan and be too lazy and just whinge and moan about nothing happening?

[Humpty Dumpty]

Just throwing it put there

If people want, I can make a logo (approved by the powers to be) then put it to a local vote.

As I have access to a vinyl printer I would be able to make a few runs for cheap.

Perhaps out there. When you see a Skyline you drop an SAU card under the wiper blade.

So many on the road in the ACT and so few on this forum.

There is a renewed enthusiasm within the ACT at the moment but it has to be sustained.

We can continue to act like an ACT club and just be under the banner of NSW, as we currently are.

BUT we have to get out there, and more often, attend organised events and start planning/executing more of our own events.

IF YOU WANT MORE THEN DO MORE................

you cant wait for others to do it for you - Message received ????

this.

i was tired of having no events, so i started organising my own.

people came(surprisingly) and have gone from there.

we actually have a pretty busy calander this year.

as to the first part of your statement, yes, there are more skylines.

unfortunately, as the prices of the cars have dropped, they no longer are driven by only enthusiests.

they have become a daily/run of the mill car.

such a shame, as alot of these cars are no longer given the attention they deserve.

Might go check in - Coz I is an OL' man

lol, Just do it. Vote or list or whatever means nothing here. Just do the work or make the decision. Post up when/if things are ready. If it's good, it will populate. I'm pretty sure Richard has been part of this forum as long as I have (around 2004?), and this thought of thing has come up a number of times. Someone will start a topic like this, a few other guys would join and do some work, then people would get bored and/or leave.

CAMS is just crap. I'm about to try to deal with them this week and I'm not looking forward to it.

I know our local representatives do a lot of work but I also rarely see them. It is not necessary for them to be administering every event that we want to do. On NissanSilvia.com, they did try to run event organisors for each state, it failed horribly in ACT. The best thing to do is what Richard did recently; Start a Thread with all the details and go regardless if only 1 other person says they will turn up.

I am happy with "Team Canberra" with SAU NSW membership. We stand out enough compared to the other states. Our number plates are another thing that give us away.

[RosieR34]

A different style of sticker would be awesome just to signalfy our existence. I guess the random thread / invite is the best way to do it

[RosieR34]

I've got an amazing artist contact who does a lot if this stuff. I'll see if he can come up with a few ideas and show you / admins for approval.

Someone made some little SAU ACT stickers at one point, I have one somewhere. If you want to make some, that's fine, but just please remember that anything with "SAU" on it comes back to this forum so don't just hand them out to every douchebag who asks for one lol

I think it's all been said really, but yeah, we just don't have the numbers for an "official" club. By the time you get a Pres, VP's, Treasurer and Secretary, plus other Execs, do all the paperwork, constitution, join CAMS ($300-700 a year), have the required meetings, take minutes and all the other shit.....

What's the point? What events are we going to have? SAUNSW often struggle to fill events, even in the Canberra region, such as Wakie and Sutton Rd.... there's no way we'd be holding another separate one and expecting to fill it.

Therefore, we may as well stay as we are with 'informal' events like BBQ, cruises, the odd dyno day, Wheels and similar local events.... things that require no money outlay. If you want to do motorsport, enter the SDMA hillclimb, MGCC khanas, SAU Wakie days, SAU texi etc etc.

There's enough around without us busting our arses trying to organise stuff and fill expensive events. We can still do "unofficial official" stuff, ie, we try to hold an Official Xmas Cruise each year.

[StinkyPoo]

Oh yeah, that was Anthony. I think they even tried numbering them so each one was unique.... lol.

And, now that I think about it, there might be one of those stickers on one of the R32's I bought recently. I'll have a look sometime.

[Shell]

Yeah that's the guy! Numbering? lol.... mine just says Skylines Australia ACT. It's just text, nothing exciting.

Richard's idea of dropping a card under the windscreen is actually f**king awesome! There's been plenty of times I've seen Skylines around and know that the owner has no idea about SAU, the idea of giving them a bit of paper with the URL and shiz is a great way to bring more peeps here!

[Sinista32]

lol - my quick personal card attempt....

[Deziner]

That seems a little biased Richard. ; )
