New website and FORUM…. post and win prizes!

No problems to report so far! I’ve registered OK (using IE) and posted using both IE and Firefox on 2 different notebooks.

[quote=mikko]Thanks for all the debugging work 🙂

Fazz – could you sign up and post a thread in the Malaysia Karting Talk section and explain what My-Kart is all about?[/quote]

i just registered on the forum. will do a post on my-kart later. thanks for this mikko.

mikko – tried posting the following story about my-kart… but couldn’t post the URL – could you help?

Thanks to Mikko for setting this forum up.

A few years back my good buddy Azlan and I founded a karting group. We love racing as a spectator as well as a participant… unfortunately neither of us were blessed with loads of cash. 🙂

Fortunately for us there were people out there who would rent karts for skint people like us. So we organised a few sessions with a group of friends. for fun – we called ourselves malaysia karting amateurs racing team – or my-kart for short.

Soon the word of mouth spread and we meet many more friends of friends who would join us – either occassionally, or regularly (buayas who want to collect championship points… lol).

Talking about championships – well yeah – you do collect championship points over a year long racing season. that is the fun part of it. it is not just about going fast on one lap on one race all by yourself. It is about racing (note: not driving 😉 ) consistently throughout the season, with a bunch of cool guys and girls!

For those of you who are serious, you get started in karting. But if you feel that money is a constraint and want to learn the ropes before committing – join my-kart.org – we are the Foundations of Motorsports. We aim to popularise grassroots motorsports: this is for all of you spectators and partcipants.

Anyway, enough talk – head over to our website at my-kart.org for more information… and how to join our group. Also you can google for amateur karting in malaysia. 🙂

[quote=mikko]Hi Fazz
I noticed that you posted “dot org” and made it into a url before I saw your post here.

– I think there is a system in place that prevents posting urls in your first post and maybe first day as a registered member – to prevent spam. I’ll get rid of it now though because there’s been no probs with spam sign-ups even.

thanks. be careful with removing the spam controller. i have had experience with PHPBB and it tends to be vulnerable to spammers…. hence, i migrated to drupal for sites such as this.
