Corsa-c sports club is full of numptys i registered made 3 posts and that was it for me,not gone back 
Many people do get the image this site only meant for corsa b's
and if somone has a bodykit or it doesnt have irmscher/gsi/speedlines etc they usually get ripped into and that puts people off.

Of course - but free tickets is expensive! If we gave out free PVS tickets to everyone who showed it would have cost us £800. That's a lot of burgers
LOL Not free tickets as such, but just things to make them want to pass the dough over. Even just stickers or something.

I'd be careful on that, as it's CS that's ultimately paying for the site.
I'd look at more 75/25, maybe with a crossover section in the middle containing members from both forums, with mutually exclusive individuals out to each side.

You should change it to say How to donate, instead of How to pay by the way 
Makes it sound like you're supporting the site, instead of buying something.

I just think we get more enthusiasts on here, people who appreciate the car as something to be enjoyed, rather than someone who had borrowed his mums shopping car and driven it into Halfords.
These are the people who will grow up to want something like WR once they have the funds available to them.

That's a bit of a misconception though. Tidy stuff doesn't get ripped. The problem is that a lot of big kitted stuff isn't tidy. Stems from a lot of young people seeing fiberglass bumpers for a few hundred quid and thinking spending a few hundred will transform the car. In reality it costs thousands to get it looking nice. At least OE parts don't have that overhead, hence them coming out nicer in more cases.

I've only had a little track experience too.
When you signed up here were you an expert on Corsas? I wasn't. You sign up to learn as much as to share.

Disagree - it's more about the quality and overall look than whether it has a kit per se.
