Sandman Car Club Thread

I think compulsory "SANDMAN" tattoos for all members should they pass the initiation process (similar to the Stonecutters)

I'm down with that

I reckon thats a pretty good summary wombat. Yeah ive also had some unpleasant club experiences, but on the whole, this place has some great people where everyone ive met has been really cool and friendly....so hopefully that will make a great club.

Being an 'extension' of the forum, it would lean towards the Sandman Owners Club title rather than the fans of sandman one. Like wombat said, it makes it the social aspect of the forum......im just amazed there isnt a Sandman Car Club in general...seems to be a club for every other make and model out there. Blocker said theres a Drifter club too...imagine how small would that club be??? So size of the club really shouldnt have any bearing in changing it to suit a larger crowd.
In terms of getting cars on club rego, that would be a bonus.

I didn't mean we should call the club "Fans of Sandman", just that the general feel of the club should be casual rather than specific. Some clubs are so specific that they scare away potential members.

For example, if it is called "Sandman Owners Club", then anyone that does not have a Sandman will be turned off from joining. I'm not welcome then (at the moment anyway), but as soon as I buy one (in any condition?) I'm in?

You could end up with a bunch of members with rust buckets or old wrecks and a set of tags, rather than the enthusiasts that a club needs. Those enthusiasts are the people that really want one but for whatever reason haven't got one yet. Being in a club is the best way of achieving that goal.

Although the spelling is quite despairing.

Would there be a cost involved, could get embarrassing

[Alien DNA]

Perhaps 'Sandman Car Club of Australia' would be more accurate. That way enthusiasts and owners alike can join.

Like with any car club of course there would be a cost. Something like $40 or $50 a year....that would cover memebership packs (t-shirt, stubbie holders, caps etc etc).... with newsletters and upkeep of the club, basically a voluntary thing.

That sounds like a 70's strip club
