Big West Racing needs your help! - Auto Racing Forum

webby · 11-02-2007, 01:55 PM

Dear Big West Racing enthusiasts we need your help! In the past three months we have completely re-engineered Big West Racing adding all-new forums, gallery, classifieds, links directory, chat room and more. Then just a couple weeks ago we completely upgraded and moved Big West to an all-new server to accommodate the growth of Big West Racing. All of this cost about $850 and will also cost an extra $30 each month added on to what we already pay which is a fair amount of money each month. In all the years Big West Racing has been online we have never asked for financial help and have always relied on our advertising to keep things afloat but with all these upgrades we could use some help. If you are able to help financially in anyway please consider doing one of the following....

HOW CAN YOU HELP? (in order of most beneficial to the cause)

1. Start a monthly subscription.
It's much easier to pay the monthly bills when we can rely on regular incoming monthly funds. Heck it's only three dollars per month and you get lots of benefits!

2. Start a yearly subscription.
Yearly subscriptions are cheaper than monthly ones but you still get the same great benefits!

3. Advertise on Big West Racing!
This is a "win win", you can help Big West financially while at the same time display your company name and or product millions of times per year! There are three ways to advertise on Big West Racing check out all the options here. The side banner mini-plaques are still on sale and that's a great way to advertise and support Big West Racing.

4. Give a flat donation.
If you would rather just donate some money to help the cause, donations in ANY amount are much appreciated. Click this link to make a flat donation of any amount.

5. All of the above!

Anything you can do to help is very much appreciated!

We encourage all of you to help us keep Big West Racing the greatest, most fun, racing community on the internet. We thank you in advance for your support!

Because I get an automated message telling me who signed up.

Thank you! 19 more people do the same and we would be close enough to call it good!

CheeseHead · 11-02-2007, 02:58 PM

OK, Webbie... chalk me down... just bought my annual membership.
18 more to go then right?
Also, if we want to make a donation, do you have a PO Box or Address that we could send something to?

C'mon people, sign up if you haven't already! Where else can you get therapy this cheap? $30.00 for an entire year of being able to piss and moan 24/7 as much as you want!

I have enjoyed Big West racing for years, even though I don't post very often. Great Job. I signed up for the Yearly Subsciption to help.

Web Master,

I just sent you the funds for an annual subscription under the name of our parent company SKR Enterprises. All of us at SKR Rebel Racing are proud of our association with Big West Racing and are happy to help you add new features and to keep the site fresh.

If you need a "beat" writer for the Utah Racing Scene... let me know. I freelance and can provide anything from regular stats and updates to full fledged articles. We would be proud to contribute to your site with meaningful and up-to-date Utah Racing action reports.

Thanks for all that you are doing for racing in the often over-looked Western US!

Consider it done!!!

You are now the beat writer for the Utah scene!

You will now see a "SUBMIT NEWS" link on the home page. Use that to submit news stories. One or two a week MAX would be fantastic. Thank you for your support!

webby · 11-03-2007, 10:26 AM

Wow! The response has been fantastic so far. We are just a little over halfway to our goal of $850. I am going to push this "Telethon" until next Friday unless we reach our goal before that.

Again, thank you soooo much to everyone who has helped so far, it really does make all the difference in the world.

BWR fans we are 3/4's the way to our goal.

If you can, please consider helping out. And a special thank you goes out to everyone who has got involved so far.

hayabusa · 11-05-2007, 10:13 AM

Cheeshead, you say where else can you rant and rave as much as you want for $30, but what i was seeing was when race season was going on and tempers and opinions are stronger than during the off season, there was alot of "shutting down" of people that would be very strong in wanting to get thier opinions out. If a few people complained about someone or some thread it would be shut down, I'm not picking on you, i'm just using your post as a lead in to my point. Now my question is to the "webmaster", If we are paying to use this site are we going to have more freedom to "rant" and "rave" and even get a little bit nasty or will it be overly controled (in my opinion) like it was before. The only fun in this site is to "spar" with people that have different opinions than you. If i just want to talk to a bunch of people that agree with me ,i'll go to church and discuss the bible !!!
