With the release of the November issue of Super Street magazine, i-Club became even more recognized than it has been before. The cover shot of the CUSCO JGTC Subaru Impreza WRX features a large i-Club logo on its fender. However, as many "haters" of i-Club speculated all over the net, that decal was not just placed there for the sake of photoshoot. It was placed onto the car personally by the CUSCO VP prior to Round 5 of JGTC race at Fuji Speedway, where CUSCO Racing Subaru Impreza WRX took . For the same race, i-Club.com logos were also placed on the rear spoiler side panels.
Then, at the 32nd International Pokka 1000km enduro race that took place at Suzuka Circut on 8/24-8/25 CUSCO Racing Subaru Impreza WRX took overall 2nd place. Once again, the decals where on the car.
Round 6 of the JGTC at Twin Ring Motegi came about and once again, CUSCO Racing WRX was still spotting the i-Club.com logos on its battle proven body.
I would like to use this opportunity to thank all i-Club members for their support and help making i-Club what it is today. To be recognized like that by Japan's one of the most dominant race teams is something beathtaking. I am very happy these days. Very happy. Thank you all. I could have not done this without you all.
I know I have an I-Club sticker on my car. :) Even if it was a POS that took entirely to much effort to apply.

On the right fender (from inside the car) the I-Club sticker (you know the lil' impreza car with 'I-club under it?) it's over the 'Hart' part from what I assume is a Racing hart wheels decal.

Ah I remember that. When he took the raffle winner for the ride around the spectator stage and then got bored so he just swung it around 180 and started doing doughnuts! :p

Alex,
Just for fun, try not to use the first person ("I did this . . ." or "I have just . . .") when you post. We all know that you are not self-centered, but you sometimes come across that way.
Just trying to help out. :)
Cheers,

T-Rex,
Please quote me where I did that. I just re-read the post and never once have I used the first person approach. I only said:
"I would like to use this opportunity to thank all i-Club members for their support and help making i-Club what it is today. To be recognized like that by Japan's one of the most dominant race teams is something beathtaking. I am very happy these days. Very happy. Thank you all. I could have not done this without you all."
So I have no clue where what you said is coming from.
Just for fun, try reading the posts prior to offending people...
Mmmmm-kay!?

Sorry to offend. I was referencing the main page, where I clicked on the "comment" button next to an article by Imprezer. Most of the posts on the main page of the i-Club are written by Imprezer in the first person. If one visists other websites, or read professional articles, or newspapers, they are never in the first person.
For example, instead of "I have just finished installing the product database reviews section of i-Club." an alternate way to write would be, "A product database review section has been installed for members of i-Club."
I should have put my comments in a PM instead of in a public message, where it comes across as potentially attacking instead of constructive.
Again, my intent is not to offend or troll. While I do not post on i-club much, I read many threads and have been a member since its inception.
Cheers,
T-WRX

Why make it seem general.... There is no 'we' in 'Team I-club' :D

I understand your point now.
There is only one Admin on i-Club (me) so when I talk about adding features to the site, etc, of course I say " I did such and such". Maybe it is not super professional, but I by no means am a professional writer and I am russian, haha.
Point taken, I will try to change my writing habbits. It is for the better...
No offense taken...

We're all proud to be members of I-Club. The day I can drive I'm buying like 10000000000 stickers(if you still have them), unless you wanna send them to me now, for free? :D
But anyway, I LOVE this place, as you can see from my post count and the thread I started a few months ago talkign about how cool this place was. Alex, keep up the great work.
Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear. Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair. Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn't fuzzy, was he?

Jeesh, there is a solid bit of Nasioc hate in some of these. I think it is great that I club is recognized on large scale but some of the posts make me think people enjoy the attention to spite Nasioc.
Congrats, none-the-less.
