whats the deal with respraying cars. do you have to let vicroads know? random thought

[alr33x]

I'm pretty sure thats not why your renting at all..

but just to further show how little you know can you point out when exactly rates where 4.8%? dating back to 1959 i cant see any variable rates being offered below 5%

Don't have to inform them of a respray if it's the same colour or a variation/shade of it, but changes from red to yellow or green to black etc. need to be made known.

Whoopdy Farken Doo.. I was .50% off. I'm not an accountant nor a banker, I don't keep a track record of interest rates but i just say what I can recall. Just a couple years ago it was the 5% mark which was close enough to what I said.

oh ok, so you want rates to drop to where they did which further fuelled the credit binge and sky rocketed house prices? not to mention they were at that level for less than 12 months hardly worth hanging out for again to make life descisions..

australia is going through deleveraging and its a good thing, the RBA should stay out of it for the time being, we have the highest personal debt levels in the world its about time people started saving, which they are at record rates we went from spending 150% of our incomes to saving 10cents in the dollar within a 12-18 month period.

[alr33x]

Trying not to come off as a nagging child although understandably suggestions are far easier to make after an event. I have not been to an official event before therefore I had no reference to suggest prior to this one.

I would be happy to volunteer, although when I try to provide constructive feedback to a 'Club Executive' it's taken as a complaint. It's a little difficult to want to volunteer when the absolute first step of the whole process, making suggestions as an attendee, is a grueling experience.

Not quite sure why I bothered giving a shit

Well I wasn’t talking about you – you aren’t a member. It’s the other usual suspects who complain after every event and never do anything about it.

I’m not viewing anything you’ve said as a complaint. Things can be improved, but that needs people to actually pitch in and do it.

Currently, there are none

This sums it up perfectly.

Anyone can spot problems, coming up with an actual solution to keep everyone happy is another thing. If you've got a solution, send it through... all committee is, a bunch of fellow members critiquing items and throwing ideas/input at it until a majority agree on something...because 10 minds are better than 1.

6 / 8 same same, same reason i didnt enter the sau nats one its just to long imo, clearly others dont have an issue with it which is fine but i'd be willing to bet you'd have a better turn out with a shorter time frame of mandatory attendance.

but im not knockin your events you guys do a good job considering its unpaid unloved work

We used to have people put their cars in for Autosalon for 3 days, all 40 of them. This was when the club had 150 odd members as well. Not the 300 we have not

The difference is it is 2011… And that means everyone

1. Would prefer to complain that something doesn’t work without offering a reasonable solution.

2. Wants the world to bend to their specific requirements and needs

Remember events need to cater for not just members… There is… Our Insurance, Councils (and their insurance), Private companies like local business…

Some events simply don’t happen easily and there is a massive level of piss-farting around that goes on, that until you’ve done it, you’d never know it existed.

No waiz.. what did you have back then?

Knew some people from Mccr, it's a shame they no longer exist. The club exec. was a dude with a black Mr2 and i believe he also had a powerful soarer

Such things always have a limited life span. Same as Vic Imports and other sub-divisions. If everyone stayed within the major clubs and stopped trying to splinter off.

The Melb car scene would be MUCH stronger than it currently is. Hence SAU is looking to a bit of rebranding in the next 12 months to sorta merge that up a bit

MCCR owner now owns StreetFX, and is involved with Firesport if I am not mistaken

I concur.

The ole "full of sh*t" comes to mind

We should enter autosalon the next time it's at the exhibition centre and have a massive sign that says 'SAU The normal cars'
