Worth it alone just for that alone

Dont people think that having to pay to have their car on stand is a bit stupid though? personally the more members the merrier on stand and condition of car imo is irelevant,each member should have as much right?
And yes whittie thats clubpolo their premium package is brilliant stickers membership card discounts free barbucues at shows even get a polo magazine and its only £5 a year  My brothers a member on there with his g40 and he always goes on about how good the site is.
And the adrian flus discount,everytime i have a quote with them,they ask are you members with any sites/clubs etc you say corsasport thats it, i just said it so that means non premium get same benfit for just saying it.

It's a condition of the liability insurance that everyone on there should be a member of the club, and it was cheaper to insure 500 people than 26000.

They'll probably check it up when you claim. They have asked people in the past for proof of it which is why we have a membership number on the Prem services page, this can be printed and sent to them.

It covers things like people hurting themselves on the stands which when you've got 5 metre flags, folding chairs and a hot BBQ is perhaps a good idea.

I know a few boys with flux and they just say theyre with a club never asked them for proof.
The one time i had insurance with flux i said i was with sw-cc even though im banned off there.and i had 80 quid knocked off just for saying it

No - they assume you have that as part of a TPFT policy yourself. They won't cover it if you personally can buy it.

Personally I'm not arsed about extra things to hang off my keys, I like the way the site is run, it's refreshing to come here after some other sites with 426, 759 subforums and find something you're looking for in under 30 seconds.
However, the search function (as I'm sure you're aware) still needs sorting out.
Is it not possible to get it all 100% here, then simply copy the template to WR too? I worry that the people attracted there from the presence at track days and so on will be put off by just another VB style board.

Yes but certain showgrounds insist that you bring your own. Pod don't but Billing do and regional meets or national stuff we organise ourselves needs it.

if we sign up before any changes such as free stuff in the post, will it be issued to us or is it only for new members?

I see no reason why we couldn't get extra stuff to give out to existing members. I've not agreed to it for new people yet though

^^ Idea!
i was preem, didnt find the benefits of an avatar pic and premium lounge worthy of £12.50tbh.
although if i lived further upcountry i may find the show access beneficial.

I reckon stickers would be a good idea, get John to make a load then post out pairs of the 200mm ones when you go prem. I'd have signed up straight away if you got stickers

Stuff in the post isnt needed, £12.50 is such a small perscentage of my yearly wage it doesnt matter,
I like the way the board is run, and the time and effort the organisers put in for the shows is fantastic
Im not up for having key rings and stickers cause I dont own a corsa, ( and I dont want it pushing the price up  )
