I have altered the terms and colours of the ranks and icons. Pray I do not alter them further. Note that the top three ranks are gold, silver and of course, red. Why? Isn't it obvious? No doubt one or two of you will be dissatisfied with these. For those one or two seeking redress from this perceived injustice, I invite you to click on my disclaimer. I reserve the right to alter them further for my own personal amusement. A few of you will remember one summer when my nickname was the Prince of Darkness, when certain members wound me up and found their user names and profile photos and even mailing addresses mysteriously changed to something slightly unflattering but highly amusing to the membership. The Prince rarely appears but when he does, it's memorable - just sayin'...

Do it!

There isn’t one. It’s just part of the software as a bit of fun. If someone tells you that it’s needed, please tell me so I can get them scheduled for a brain scan. What term would you recommend instead? Keep in mind that the “labels” are only visible if you go into an individual account. They’re not broadcast under every post someone makes. In its own way, they encourage people to post more to reach the next level. It’s red. Don’t make me go backstage and change the icon colour to red because you and everyone in the club knows I will.

Hi Nice to hear that you have good experience with Christoph. I called him and he answered. We had a nice chat. Problem solved I think Delivery in a few weeks. Best regards Nils Jakob

Me too! Never taken my Westie on a track, but don’t tell anyone that!!

How about Rising Star as the first category? Oh, and can everyone react to this post as I’ll get points! Thanks so much in advance.

I’m now highly tempted to change the first two level icons to “L” and “P” plates…

This is a chance to get up close to the Vulcan whilst the crew demonstrate some of the systems, explaining the operations and some of challenges of keeping everything working as it should. Towards the end of the visit we will be able to line up the cars under the Vulcan for a group photo. See the example pic below borrowed from another club! This visit is scheduled to start at 1.30pm on Saturday 18th April, and should last approximately 2.5 hours. We are limited to a maximum of 24 people and 12 cars. This visit is being supported by the club for WSCC members by covering £5 of the normal £15 fee, leaving you £10 per person to pay. Due to the restrictions on numbers I will need bookings in advance, so please PM me your interest. Priority is to Warwickshire Area members first. There is a very good cafe on the airfield so I am proposing to head there for around 11.30am for brunch before the 2 minute drive to the Vulcan for our visit later.

As track Demon is a better badge than banger racer many might get there and never post again better put a time limit for upward progress or risk being demoted.

Did you know Admins can manually remove points from accounts and knock you down a level or two? Just a rumour of course, I can’t imagine anyone I know doing that…

I’m sure that there has never been a fawn coloured Westy Dog? Surely that should also be Chrome Yellow??

Ohhh great work @Captain Colonial, I’m now a Track Demon. If only this were true!

Give Christoph a call he will not scam you he is very nice genuine guy and his english is very very good

I ordered a carbon scuttle a couple of years ago and had no problems. Give Christoph a call, I don't speak German but his English is ok

Not greenhorn then

Hi! How is your German? I could send them a message in their mother tongue... Funnily enough at Easter I happen to visit family in that region, but Steinfurt is a bit too far to just pop round and knock on their door, sorry.

But yellow is top, we all know that! I do like the idea of different ranking methods, interactions, visits, replies etc, or im going to be pedestrian for a long time!

I'll be bringing free ear plugs and a better pillow this year

I’ve not really grasped the need or point of this system. Labelling new members as “pedestrians” hardly seems the most inspiring way to welcome them and encourage engagement. Anyway, surely the ranking should be by car colour. With green at the top. Obviously.

We’ll be there ( not on holiday ) cheers Andy & Becky

Trekking in Nepal and thought I'd share these pictures to take your mind off the weather back home
