> A newsletter is a tough one.  Having supported newsletters and websites for several clubs, I've come to the conclusion newsletters aren't worth the effort.  This forum is a wonderful example of why.  If you have an active forum, with the ability to post pictures, you already have everything you need to drive an active community.  Things of interest kick off discussions and things that aren't of interest, don't.  Being able to reference our website with the individual cars provides a visual way to expose ideas and proof points for different engineering approaches.  The V8 site was a huge help in getting me started on my own car.  I may have misunderstood your message, so I apologize if I'm off topic, but I feel like the best combination for our club is to have an active forum to drive the community and a good website to expose all the great work people do in building these cars.

I agree! In my ideal world, we would talk the owner of the Corvair 
Center (Corvaircenter.com) into activating one one of the alternate 
forums for V8 vair use.  It's a terrific site and a very simple 
interface that offers imbedded or off-site photos, grouped threads, and 
keeps current threads at the top.  I think it's fantastic.  There is 
also a spot for "members rides" with pictures and descriptions much like 
we had before.
I wonder how to go about asking Royce (the owner) and I wonder how this 
would sit with everyone on this current email list?
