Title: I'm Back!
Post by: ChrisConsidine on October 20, 2006, 09:39:14 pm
Hi everyone,
I thought I'd drop in and say hello to everyone. Sorry I've been away for far too long. I've been incredibly busy these last few years.
The short story is; I decided to combine my two passions in life and start my own company. Since it has relevance here, I'll explain. Our company specializes in combining cutting edge design with state-of-the-art control systems and motion technologies to create extremely realistic racing simulations - whether as a learning tool for professional drivers and teams or a fully configurable thrill package for high-end private or corporate use. The ultimate toys or the most serious tools, we do it all!
You can check out our site here: www.cxcsimulations.com At the moment it's just a temporary placeholder but stay tuned for more information.
Anyhow, enough about that. I plan on participating a lot more around here and maybe making a few improvements to the site when I have the time. (perhaps a new forum to get rid of those spammers and add some fun features)
It's nice to see this little community we built is still going strong. I look forward to spending more time here again.

Nice to hear from you! Setting up a business that you are interested is one of the aims most people would have in life!

Martini - Do you mean advertising ??
Its not the done thing, but i think its losely related to Le Mans and i know from a few years back, chris does lots of work on this forum, so i would guess he's allowed.
Chris - Nice to see you posting

Nothing quite as blunt as advertising, BUT, but it would perhaps be an idea to have a 'for sale' section (other than LM tickets etc) and this could only be available to verified members. Even perhaps donating a small amount of cash to our chosen charity.
BTW I was not having a pop at CC.

That's a brilliant idea Martini! I've got some stuff going on which would be suitable to the idea if it wasn't considered spam. I'm doing some business with fellow DfH members, but a platform for doing business between members could jumpstart more business. I'm very willing to contribute to charity.

Maybe it could be incorporated into the CA guide, under its own section, that way it could generate somme base revenue for charity and some return for contributing members (need to work out some qualifying criteria) when the guide is downloaded.

While it has spawned some interesting debate, I was merely mentioning my new business as an excuse for my disappearing act. Also I thought you guys might be interested seeing as it has something to do with racing. Sorry if it offended. I can see how it might seem like advertising.
As far as the new forum thought; perhaps we could open a "feaures request" thread. As I said before, I'm thinking of completely rebuilding the forum to solve a number of problems. These types of requests would be important to note.

Hi Chris, and welcome back, will you be attending next year, if so you know you are always welcome to call in for a cool one.
When was the last time we did that, was it 2002 or 2003.
Brian.

Hi Brian!
Yeah that was great fun! I think that was 2003. That was one of my fondest memories of Le Mans. Believe it or not, that was the first time I saw the campgrounds. You can't really understand Le Mans until you visit the campgrounds. That's where all the real fun is.
I would love to go again this year, but it seems I'm not invited :( As you know the Club Arnage team does the Enlgish side of the ACO website coverage. Unfortunately the budgets are extremely small so they have to take a very small team. As I'm not a very good writer or photographer and I have to come all the way from the US, I'm afraid I'm left in the dust. My father will be there though and the rest of the usual team should be there too.
Funny enough, I just had dinner with the Grand Formage (Dave Davies for those who don't know). It seems he's in on business for the week. We've been talking about what we see in the future for Club Arnage. He has some really great ideas. I think you guys will like what's in store.
