listen guys, if you are not happy with the how the club is forming, which most of you guys are waiting on, (will be posted on thursday), please PM me regarding it.

I would like to keep this as a member sign up page.

If GSUJEFF would like to start one, that would be fine.

In another news, we have about 4 people who would like to join from Alabama as well as some from South Carolina. I will soon post things up on how everything is going to be setup for everyone from different state.

The discounts, dealer support will be divisional and different from state to state so you don't have to travel to get discounts. I'm talking to shops in Alabama right now.

Thanks for all your support.

Evolution Owners club of Georgia/// Southeast.

Hey guys, here is the official setup for the Club.

I’m going to explain the structure of the club first.

There are 2 divisions of the main club, Evolution Owners club of Georgia.

Evolution owners club of Georgia///Southeast

This is the heart of the operations. This will consist of all the Evolution owners from GA and Southeast and Only Evolution owners.

Under that, there will be a brother club operating separately.

Lancer Owners club of Georgia

This will be operated separately, however they will get all the benefit of dealer and vendor discounts. If we have enough owners to join, this could be a large club.

They will have seperate club and seperate events than Evolution Owners club. I believe that they will have different needs than Evolution owners.

To wrap up these 2 clubs, we will have a separate program under Evolution Owners club of Georgia.

Racers Unlimited.

This program consists of setup events for Auto X, Drag racing and road race.
All the Evolution owners club of Georgia and the Lancer owners club of Georgia will be joined automatically without fees.

This is where all the other cars could join. This is opened to every drivers who’s open to track racing. This not only promotes safe racing environment, but it gives an opportunity for the Evolution owners and lancer owners to network with other drivers. This will explain a little more about the club rule for other cars joining (the 13.5 sec 1/4mile rule). more on this later.


Events for Racers Unlimited


Auto X.

From the start, we will have to do some piggy backing with some of the other more established clubs in the area, such as Viper Club, NSX club, Honda club and most likely the Porsche club and BMW club for track events like Auto X.

Within 6 month time period, we will establish ourselves to promote our own events, where members get discount and guest cars pay a bit more to pay for the track (Gwinett Faireground and tuner field).

Road Race

We will have a yearly event for the Road race where we will rent out a track for club owners only to do some runs. We probably have to fine tune how many events, I’m thinking 2 a year, but we’ll figure that as we go.

Drag Race.


This will be held at either Commerce GA or Steele AL. As many of you know how many runs you could get before you go home at Commerce. I’m working something out with Steele where we could get the whole day of fun for just Club members.

Drift competitions

For Evolution owners, this is sorta difficult, however we will setup this event, eventually for Racers Unlimited members who would like to participate.


For the Evolution Owners Club of Georgia///SouthEast


Everyone is automatically in the Racers Unlimited. If you’re serious about Auto X as well as drag racing, this is the place to do it. With the promotion of the evolution owners club, this program will ensure us that we’re not some parking lot club but serious participants.

Shows

Group event is planned for attending Nopi nationals and few other events. As sponsors kick in for few of you lucky members, you will have to attend various events locally, nationally and maybe even internationally. (We will talk about sponsorship at the meeting in detail)

We will also have few other Evolution based shows.

Owners appreciation days

We’ll talk about this at the meeting as well.

Sponsorships


We’ll talk about this at the meeting. We’ll talk about the requirement, how and who as well as what you need to have and need to do.

Benefits

As I mentioned earlier, benefits are first and most, networking with the other Evolution owners in the area. We will all give support, lend a helping hand and get everyones back that’s in the club. This is the first and most important reason.

Second reason would be to provide a playground for all of you racers at heart to see what you could do in a professional racing and driving environment. This not only support the racers, but puts us in a good terms with the law. (more on this at the meeting).

Third will be to concentrated vendor support. With one Evolution owners, this is hard to achieve, however as a club, this could be achieved fairely easy. If you goto a war together, you’ll likely win it then die. So, group buys for OEM parts (spark plugs, etc) will be held every 3 months or so on the website.

WEBSITE

As I mentioned the website will be Vbulletin powered. It’s going to be forum based. The reason for this is to open a line of communication with the vendors and sponsors and keep in contact with the events with other owners.

The website will feature articles, parts review, vendor review, dealers review (from Southeast) and featured cars.

I can’t stress enough that this is going to be a non-for profit website and organization. However, it will cost us to maintain it. I’m relying on vendors for support, so the members don’t have to pay. The vendors will pay to sponsor at the site at the most minimal amount of money just to pay for the hosting, etc.

However, there are going to be different people on the website, which I’ll discuss at the meeting.


Membership Cards.


This is fairely important thing that we will implement. The card will have the club logo, your tag number, vin number, your name, and your face on it.

To get benefits from vendors, you will have to have this to take the discounts. This wont be some “I left it in my other pants” deal. You have to have this with you, otherwise the vendors wont give you discount.

Also, you will have a small sticker on the left side of your car to make sure that the car being serviced is your car.

Along with light windshield banners (members choice), you’ll be all setup with these goodies.


FEES

Now for all of you who’s interested in the club, here are the fees.

For the founding members : the price will be $25 initial fee.

Monthly membership will be $8 month for everyone until the vendor kicks in for the web hosting and other license fees. I’m expecting at the end of the 6 month period, it’ll be good.

The most of the initial membership fee will go towards the website and few stickers and membership card.

The benefit of joining now is that you will be first to be considered for the sponsorship as a founding member. Also, you guys get the first dip on things.

The initial membership fee will be applied to everyone who joins afterwards. This money will go all towards the members events. As I mentioned, this is not for profit organization. It’s only for members profits and benefits. Also, I will post every 3 months on how much money we have and how much we spent. That along with taking request for events that members want to setup and take opinion on how the money should be spent.

Initial membership fee will be applied to non founding members for 6 months. There after you don’t have to pay a dime.

This way, the founding members are covered in their monthly fee and the cycle goes on and on.

I will collect the dues for everyone who would like to join. I have to go purchase the forum license as well as domain name and host for the website.

Please contact me via pm for any questions you may have regrading the club and anything else.

Thanks, and this is going to be very exciting time in Southeast.

Remember, this will be a very active club.

all South East members are welcome to join.

We will setup vendor discounts for different states, but operate seperately.

However, the website will be same, and the national meetings will be same.

In addition to the club auto-x is the Atlanta Region SCCA Auto-x. The first event of the season is this weekend. Here's the registration page:
http://www.joesvideos.com/scca_reg/index.py
I only see 2 Evo's other than myself registered and it would be nice to see a larger Evo showing to help fend off the S2000's and 'vette's. (No STi's registered, unf.)
Registration ends tomorrow (Saturday) at 10am, so be quick. The event is Sunday morning at Gwinnett County Fairgrounds.
