I agree in principle to your statement, however, the season is upon us and we're burning summer. I'm willing to wait because I know this venture can and will work. That being said, it's really tough to have everyone involved be involved, if that makes sense. There appears to be many people willing and able to do various duties involved in such a venture.
This being said I would vote to have this club be run by someone with experience in running an auto club. I care way too much about this to try and run this club. I have no experience running an auto club. I just wanted to get it off the ground. If this is moving too slow given the situation, I would gladly turn this effort to someone else. This is not about me. It's about the XFi club. No sore feeling here. I would have not put myself in a nominated position. Like I said I care too much for the club. I am happy to help out in any way I can which has been my intent all along.
Cheers
FP, I think that perhaps you may have misunderstood my intentions. What I was attempting to do was rally support for this club and our cars. It wasn't intended to be a personal attack on you or anyone else. A fact was stated, in a way that I think , in hindsight, may have been taken as rash and rude. That being the "burning summer" line. You see, I'm a cowboy and the term burning daylight is one which is used often for obvious reasons. I too care about this club and the cars we all love. When the notion that the club was going to really be a club, I was all for it and even said that I'd help as much as I could. Yes, I have some experience with running a club but not the scope of what this can be. Remember, I'm an old guy, quick on the draw but old. The same things you want for this club are my own desires for it too. We are on the same page.
It takes a lot of guts to even attempt to do this, I certainy don't want to run it or ruin it. I just want to see it happen. Take this as an apology and stay doing what you are doing.
