Or set one up. It’s not hard to do - there are plenty of places out there where you can do set up a forum.

Some questions - of a Devil’s Advocate flavour:

• XFi seems to be very USA based - this forum is, and clearly the majority of Crossfire owners are there. What benefits are there for us, as a small provincial group of 12 on the other side of the Atlantic for being affiliated to them?

• I’d also like to ask what benefits a UK member of XFi would get? It’s hardly a simple task to shop the cars states side to join in the Dragon meets, for example, is it?

• If someone is not an XFi member, would the meetings we have enjoyed so far be off limits if the UK XFi becomes a reality and such meetings fall under that banner?

The problem here, as others have mentioned, is the small scale of the UK gatherings. There are some scenarios:

1 - We stay as we are, possibly set up a UK Crossfire forum/web site and base operations a round that, with individuals opting to join XFi is they feel the personal inclination. The UK web presence would be a back stop incase this forum goes south.

2 - Meets carry on as they are, with all welcome, but under the XFI UK banner. This could create an “us and them” situation where those who aren’t a paid up member feel “outside” shunned (OK, a strong word - but I hope you get the direction this point is heading).

3 - Meets are only open to XFi members, which could fragment the small numbers we have already.

I’d say that I am open to the XFi UK idea, but I haven’t really heard much which has sold me the idea completely partly due to the small amount of information which has been flowing my way about it. In fact, when I started on the logo idea, I was going on what I had been told - a we’d be operating under a UK banner. The XFi had not even been mentioned in this context.
