Thanks Russ and Laminge, We are based in Port Macquarie, which is on the mid north coast of NSW, a couple of us have been working hard to develop a Ford car club for the past 10 months, and we finnally did it on the 19th November, where we had our first AGM and signed up 28 members on the day, and signed up 7 members during last week, which made 35 members in the first week of operation. We already have 6 sponsors that are very willing to help the club grow, and we have the local dealership 100% behind us ( Andrew Miedecke Ford ) which is quite awesome, as Andrew Miedecke himself has always showed plenty of time for us and ill say he will be attending a few runs with us, and since he used to drive for Ford at bathurst with the likes of Allan Moffatt and Peter Brock he has some great storys for us. We are the only Ford club on the coast from Newcastle to the Gold Coast, so that is a huge area. We accept ANY model of Ford as there was so many people with diffrent types of cars wanting to join the club. We have 2 holden car clubs in Port Macquarie, so there is alot of eagerness to have some sort of interclub competition already. We are still accepting members in the area, and the local newspaper and radio station support has been great and they are wanting to know our every step so they can announce what we are dooing. Ill stop for now but thanks guys for letting us in and im quite sure within the next couple of weeks we will be attracting a whole heap of new members to the Ford Forums.
