This just received from serial lurker Cameron Leask, one time Scooby owner and occasional interloper with SE...
Evening All - hope this finds you well.

You may recall many (many) years ago we had a thing called Team Scottish Elises. There was a website and stickers and everything ;)

The website is long-gone but I still have the domain registration, which expires at the end of March.

So the question is... Are there any good reasons why I should hang on to it? If there are then I'd happily fund the renewal cost (last of the big spenders!) - but if not then I will probably let it go.

Look forward to your thoughts... :)

Cameron
So...if any of you motorsporty types want to pursue this, then please speak up, and I'll put you in touch with Cameron directly. You have until the end of March by the looks of things :-)

There is some good history on that website and some novel features (live result uploads etc).
I personally think it would be a good thing to keep going, maybe those competing this year can utilise?

(I still have caps, jacket etc. stickers and cars long since gone...) :D

Last I heard of it, another member was looking to carry it on - that trickled out though. I think it should be kept, but as I'm not competing in anything and don't have the chance to attend much, then I'm personally not in much of a position to do anything about it. As Ali says, there's a bit of history behind that and even if we had a look at what was going on with competition this year and think about using it as a resource for members looking to compete - definitely worth keeping though.

Mornin all!

Yup... I will be competing this year, doing scottish saloons in my mates e36 m3, and I will be doing a few hill events this year also... Just hooked myself up with a gopro too thanks to our good buddies at amp3,

However... I'm not good at all when it comes to writing blogs, build threads, or anything like that - which could be an issue, however I will have loads of pictures, vids and results over the coming year, as I will still do a couple of hill events and possibly some other stuff.... ;-)

I'm hoping to do a couple of events in the old F3 car this year.

Can't get it ready for Monaco so that'll have to wait for 2014...............................

Just have to see how time and money pan out but I'll post some stuff about it if anyone's interested.

Update for you all.

Cameron will retain the domain registration for the site (team-scottish-elises.co.uk), however the original pages have long gone and therefore any new site needs to be discussed between Cameron and those who might be interested to contribute to it. I'd have run point on this but cannot be sure I can get involved this year, yet. So you can reach Cameron at cameron [at] escrivo [dot] com.

What may make this less daunting for you all is that even the original site was intended to make updates a real doddle, eg by simply emailing them in, and the advance in internet technology since then may mean that it's even simpler now....I have no idea, mind you....

Over to you guys.
