Advanced driving forum - what about a racers Forum

[SuperKartRacer]

The darkest of the dark arts - overtaking - as in witchcraft?

Zen and the art of changing gear - Zen?

Left foot braking - lethal on the road

Semi Auto Techniques... LOL please

Very dangerous riding - nice :-)

Roundabouts.... - and?

Was hoping to find some useful info in there but after reading the topics lost interest, some odd threads tho......

Could we have another sub section for raceCar driving techniques? maybe in MotorSport and named racers? would be great
for sharing info on driving/kit/starting up etc etc

Generally new forums are opened when the number of threads on a certain subject indicate that there's demand.

I'd suggest the track day forum or the motorsport forum would be a good place to start discussing these topics in the first instance.

Sure, but it might push the non posting racers into chatting about this topic if there was a dedicated forum, would you not consider a month
trial?

New forums don't work unless people know that they are there. We need a critical mass of interest demonstrated before creating an empty room.

I'll create a racing thread frenzy then ;-)

Cheers.

Kit group buys

Marshall info, joining how to get involved

To get the ball rolling :-)

I think that's the right place for it, and your original thread (i.e. this one) seems to have been moved there. I guess the second thread you started has been closed to avoid having two threads on the same topic.

I see, sorry just done 15k in the gym so f**ked :-)

Brain on again :-)

surely we have one already? its called General Motorsport.

No general Motorsport is just that and full of threads about how crap Lewis etc

A racers room :-) would be for people that race and want to chat about the subject without having to dig though loads
of threads, there's been some good stuff in there but it gets lost.

There's a room for *Gilbern's* with 123 topics started, i'm sure the racer room would fill with great info much very quick :-)

[SuperKartRacer]

Sure if a room opens ;-)

Ted has already said that his policy is to provide a forum when the volume of related discussions justify it. Coming here and saying, in effect, "people ought to be discussing this sort of thing" isn't going to get you anywhere. If you have anything to discuss, best to get on with it. If enough people agree and do the same, you might end up with the dedicated forum you're hoping for.

• Gilbern's* :-)

I'll comment later, just been attacked by chavs in Tescos!!! while looking for a gift for my 7 year olds B-day Sunday.... so not in the best of moods :-)

[SuperKartRacer]

ten-tenths.com
There's plenty of info to split gm I guess from the response not too many are fussed
cheers
