To quote Niccolo Machiaveli: "It must be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to plan, more doubtful of success nor more dangerous to manage than the creation of a new system. For the initiator has the enmity of all who profit by the preservation of the old institution and merely lukewarm defenders in those who would gain by the new one."
To the FVee, First, Solo and Vintage community,
We drafted a very rough outline of how an FV club might develop. It is posted at http://www.formulaveeracing.org/Associa ... ubPlan.pdf.
The key point is that much of this already exists, but it isn’t working in a cohesive way. The Interchange/Exchange is a great place to air ideas, but there is no voting mechanism, so discussions tend to go unresolved. The Registry is a useful database, but it is underutilized. Anna’s site ([url]http://www..formulaveeracing.org[/url]) has good information, but does not include an online community. We think a unified FV club is a logical next step to moving FV forward. FV is more than an SCCA class, it is a movement that must continue to move forward if it is to survive.
After reading the draft proposal please complete the associated survey:

We look forward to your feedback and suggestions.
Thanks much, Ray (FV 86) and Anna Qualls
