GTR at goodwood.

It ran up the hill again this morning. I was having too much fun in the Roush GT to take any pics though......

I agree. Pity to see any material not even coming from this forum!

My thoughts exactly.
I think Paul, Scott and John should post something - even if they keep the bulk back for an article later.

aaarrrgggghhhh!!!!!!!!!!

when is the club magazine getting sent out to GTROC members then?

[Will Anders]

I'd better hurry up and get my membership!!

[Daz]

Mate of mine kindly sent me this picture. It was taken today at Goodwood.



Thanks "Nad" mate

Agreed, but i'm just doing as i was told.
Would you all post something if you were asked not to?

[andreasgtr]

Yes, definately. I couldn't hold back

[Daz]

Depends who asked me and what it was !

If the head of Nissan asked me not to post pictures of the new GTR then I POSSIBLY wouldn't. If it was just another club member trying to ensure the details only got seen by club members (like some sort of exclusive thing), then I'd post them anyway.

The car was at a PUBLIC event for the PUBLIC to see...why take it there if you don't want people to see it ?

Totally agree

No doubt there will be pics on the internet regardless, but doing this kind of thing on a GTR forum is beyond me.

Yeah, thanks for the support Daz.
Like i said, i was asked not to post them. Regardless of who it was, i was asked not to. I don't have a pecking oreder list of who i listen to and who i dont. I just do as people ask out of courtesy. Sorry you dont like other peoples methods, and sorry i couldnt post the pictures. What more can i say.

I completely agree with this. There is no reason not to say things that we all have been waiting for and eager to talk about.

It's not a swipe at you mate, just the way I see it. If the car was at a public event then I see absolutely no reason to hold back on the pictures. Nissan cannot expect to take the car to an event and for people not to photograph it - infact, I expect they wanted to whet the appetite of people. Everyone knows that the Goodwood FOS see's 100,000 people EACH DAY, if you don't want people to see the car, you don't take the car to such a massive event.

If someone from this forum has asked you not to post the pictures because they want only an exclusive set of people to see them (i.e. club members only) then, personally, I find that very childish. If I had been the ONLY person to have seen that car on Friday and got detailed pictures then you can guarantee that these people would have been asking me to post them.

I think it's a real shame that people would hold back on something that this whole community is based upon.

Please do not see this as a dig at you.....I think it's very good of you to keep your word to someone (in not posting pictures up) but I think it's sh1t that someone has asked you to do this in the first place (and if i'd been asked the same thing I know what my answer would have been - as it's not their car and they have no right to ask that of you).

Daz,

I am sorry you and others feel this way, but the GTROC was given a hush hush tip-off, and through that we, as club organisers, have an obligation to our members to show them our photos and exclusive information first.

No one is stopping others from posting their pictures, as they have done so, but the GTROC is set up and run for its members, not the free GTR Register comunity. We owe our members that much.

As I believe the next SkyLines is going to press this week, so members, keep and eye on your door mate in the next couple of weeks.

Well this is were we differ Daz!

Our members expect quite rightly something extra above and beyond access to the GTR Register, and this is what us GTROC Board members and Paul are delivering.

If you would like to see them that badly, membership is now offer on-line and joining will get you the next edition of SkyLines.
