Ummmm an awkward one to answer Gav Confused Traditionalists all refer to auto riders as Darksiders whether they are in the club or not Rolling Eyes

So by starting up something new could cause confusion and also upset the original Darkside bunch, but then I think the Darkside as they know it has changed from what they originally intended.......someone correct me if I'm wrong Wink

I'm proud to say I've now seen the light and can give credit to folks who want to ride autos......I still and always will have a toe in both camps of both auto and trad (not saying I'm camp either ha ha )

I'm all for new ideas to spruce the scene up but think there needs to be a real need for a new club unless it's objectives are totally different to that of the Darkside.

Just read what I have written and l seem to talk a loads of b*llocks, basically Gav give it a go what have you got to loose Wink

i hear what ian is saying, everyone who turns up on a rally nowadays is automatically classed as darkside whether they're in the darkside or not, i think what gav wants to do is create something a bit more elitist for auto riders who do the miles, a bit more of an exclusive group of hardcore auto riders, something to seperate us from the spotty herbets sitting outide maccy d's on a speedfight never leaving the safety of the ring road.........

have i got it right gav???

ERMMM Confused There are a few more of us who do the miles Glen Wink

As for a new club i think your right leaving it alone Gav, It's a good idea in principle but its bound to upset the Darkside boys. You could go down the owners club route, 4ters that is and could still be made a bit more eliteist by controling the conditions of membership if thats what you are looking for.
