well, you get to use the forum for free. After 1385 posts over two years that's quite a lot for nothing. As regards what you get it's not just events we do, the membership pack contains a lot of stuff such as a hardback GT-R book, free membership gift (which in 2009 was a sunscreen, in 2008 was a memory stick with loads of GT-R pictures), you also get a membership card, stickers and a lot more. Benefits of membership include a 64 page colour magazine four times per year, discounts on merchandise and car parts, you also get members-only merchandise as well.
As far as track days are concenred we visit Spa Francorchamps every year (that's in Belgium) and the discount you get for being a member on that day is almost as much as the cost of membership! We visit the Nurburgring several times a year and that's probably closer to you than it is to me aswell.
Ultimately membership is up to the individual. If you are happy to use this site for free and don't see the advantages of membership then that is up to you. If however you do see the advantages and want to contribute to the running and funding of the Club then we would welcome your contribution.
