Thanks for all of the kind comments, but moving passed the self congratulatory chest beating for a minute, what do you guys want to see introduced, changed and implemented for the future? How do we make BigPower better still?

Seriously. Take a minute or more and think about how you would like to mould and influence change. Consider the structure of the forum/club, consider the style and number of events.............there is always room for improvement so let's see if we can identify these areas and address them.

Don't get me wrong, I have enjoyed our first year and we have achieved so much together in a short peiod of time, but I am more interested in what we can do to make things even better and would encourage serious considered feedback from anyone, member or not, via PM, email or post your thoughts. This forum has only achieved so much through your efforts to protect what we have started. We should endeavour to build upon a good beginning in my opinion.

No aside from that, i was thinking any sort of charity event for a good cause, sounds vague i know and i dont know what to

suggest, just throwing it to the wind but to steer even further away from those other "carpark donuting forums" maybe it would

be worthwhile getting a better/more respected name for performance car owners/enthusiasts if we did a little something to

help the less fortunate as it always goes down well and is very much worth it! Organising some kind of track day maybe where

the less forunate can come out or something i dont know!! (Watched a programme the other day about a group of disabled
children in america and they went out round a track in sports cars and they loved it)

Theres one idea for the next year maybe!

another charity type idea,

maybe nearer christmas it would ne a good idea to have a fun run type drive round the countryside that ends at a childrens hospital/home etc where we deliver pressies and whatever donations we collect on the way round.

I've seen it before and it always gets a good response, I'm sure lots of people here would be up for it.

I agree with ants13 on the charity idea, its always good to help out people who need it.
From a personal point of veiw I'm looking forward to seeing the Club's relationship with Snetterton develope over the next year, and with MSV as a whole perhaps?
