    What about an Argentina flag for when they get to the final.

    I am fairly new here but I frequent the pages on a daily basis but not always signed in.
    Its a very relaxed atmosphere on here compared to the main stream mini sites, some of you have asked for a club and to a certain extent thats what you have already.
    To bring more folks in you have to look at what new or existing mini owners want and most are looking for - a web based forum where they can get information or ask questions about there car, modding be one of the main things that people turn to the internet for. NMS has a good angle as it wants to cater for Scottish people mainly. While the structure is there for the technical aspects are catered for on here it looks like the busiest section on nms is the off topic mini stuff so a lot of sections lie dormant with no posting so it appears a quiet site.
    Things to maybe consider are a yearly meet rather than all the various runs that go on as it seems there a lot of ideas for runs but hardly any transpire(from the looks of things) A yearly meet gives people something to aim for and you could incorporate runs into this as well, it would bring sponsors in as well.
    Steps back and dons the flame proof suit.

    Some good points there but there is one I dissagree on and that's the mini runs. I think I can speak for most here and say that the various runs from all over Scotland are great and are designed for anyone to attend, however due to work/time/money and location restictions many poeple can't attend them all. I work offshore so I attend ones that I am home for. If there was one big run you'd get alot of people who can't make one date. Besides I love the different variety and locations of the various routes. Otherwise good comments
