Thomas (im guessing), not to take anything away from the wrx club (i have been a member for over 12 years) but they have a much different demographic to here. I.e. A lot older.

Without causing a shit storm and being very generalistic it is the same people at the wrx club that put all the effort in. It is not fair on those people to keep coming up with new ideas and renwed enthusiasm. Imho the higlights of their calendar are the track day they do at barbagallo once a year, the annual yallingup supercruise, and a couple of track days out at the rac centre. The wrx club was one of the first car clubs in wa to become cams accredited which is / was a massive feather in their cap.

Perth wrx is far more casual and is not an incorporated club with membership fees etc. Sure you can be a forum spporter but that just goes to keeping this site up. There seems to be a much younger crowd and is far more casual.

The oher website you might want to check out is antilag.com Alot of people from here are on both and whilst still retaining some of the great things about a public forum they are cams accredited (so they can hold timed, competitive events in their own right). They have a much larger core group than perth wrx or wrx club simply because they dont limit themselves to just wrx's.

Anyways my 2 cents and welcome.
