Membership Renewal 2011
At the beginning of August 2009, the Syncro_T3_Australia group underwent an extensive reorganization, the principal feature of which was the requirement for all members to re-register. This had been made necessary by the presence on the membership list of anonymous traders who were using the group for free advertising to a captive audience. The membership list was also thickly populated with anonymous members of whom we knew nothing.
Syncro_T3_Australia is a mutual technical support and advice group which has no need of anonymous members or anonymous traders. It is a lot easier to give support and advice when we know whom we are supporting so we asked all members to identify themselves and establish their bona fifes. The new membership requirements rectified that. The anonymous traders disappeared overnight and every member on the list is now known.
To maintain this, memberships will be confirmed each year. (I intended to call for renewals in August 2010 but difficult personal circumstances made this impossible.)
To confirm you membership, please reply to this email, including you full actual name, not your user name. This is an important requirement because I otherwise have no ready means of relating user names to actual names.
Anyone who does not reply within four weeks will be dropped from the membership list.
August 2011 sees us entering the eighth year of Syncro_T3_Australia. The progenitor of the group began in January 2004, when I started an email newsletter and sent it to the handful of Syncro owners for whom I had email addresses. In August of that year, I decided that creating a dedicated Internet technical support and advice group would work a lot better.
At that time, the choice of free internet groups was very limited and I went with the most widely used, which was Yahoo. The Yahoo format is a bit on the clunky side but has served us well over these years.
Mark Kofahl has established a website, www.syncro.com.au, which is as smooth as the Yahoo site is clunky. It contains extensive picture albums and we will look at making more use of it as a readily accessible repository for Syncro information in the future.
I give my personal thanks to the long-standing members here and overseas who have contributed so much over these years; these are the people who turned the concept of a mutual technical support and advice resource into a reality.
My thanks go also to my two back-ups, moderators Francesca Coles and Mark Kofahl.

Hi Les. Please keep me on the register it's invaluable. Thanks. Bill Sullivan.(Nambucca Heads). Quite a lot has been happyning in our Syncro world in the last month. My telstra syncro project vehicle that has been 4 years in progress was registered last week much to the excitement of my son Max who is looking forward to the first camping trip. He's 23 and owned a lovely 2wd t3 for 3 years and cant wait to get behind the wheel of the syncro. Now he won't be pestering to borrow mine. Also my daily driver syncro has just come back from 6 weeks in the paint shop after a full glass out 2 pack respray. Very exciting having two going shiny syncros in the driveway. Maintenance may be the death of me but what a way to go. Bill.
Hi Scott,
As I said to Les, work commitments are pressing this year. I’m angling for a permanent part time position at Mallacoota, which is rather tempting. I always intended to do Old Bar on the alternate year to Valla, but this year, even if I can fit it in, I’ll probably have to forgo the extended tour I usually tack on to such trips. Do you have the dates?
Brian.

To confirm you membership, please reply to this email, including you full actual name, not your user name. This is an important requirement because I otherwise have no ready means of relating user names to actual names.

August 2011 sees us entering the eighth year of Syncro_T3_Australia.

In August of that year, I decided that creating a dedicated Internet technical support and advice group would work a lot better.
At that time, the choice of free internet groups was very limited and I went with the most widely used, which was Yahoo. The Yahoo format is a bit on the clunky side but has served us well over these years.
Mark Kofahl has established a website, www.syncro.com.au, which is as smooth as the Yahoo site is clunky. It contains extensive picture albums and we will look at making more use of it as a readily accessible repository for Syncro information in the future.
I give my personal thanks to the long-standing members here and overseas who have contributed so much over these years; these are the people who turned the concept of a mutual technical support and advice resource into a reality.
My thanks go also to my two back-ups, moderators Francesca Coles and Mark Kofahl.

Guaranteed to rain as it is our long weekend.

As I said to Les, work commitments are pressing this year. I’m angling for a permanent part time position at Mallacoota, which is rather tempting. I always intended to do Old Bar on the alternate year to Valla, but this year, even if I can fit it in, I’ll probably have to forgo the extended tour I usually tack on to such trips. Do you have the dates?
Brian.

Brian,
Are we going to see you and your 4 motion @ Old Bar this year? I am always amazed at your travels around this very large country of ours.
Cheers,

Hi Les,
Please keep me on the email list. In a different way to you, my work commitments this year are keeping me away from both Syncro group, and VWCV activities, but I still enjoy keeping up with the chatter on the group.

Membership Renewal 2011
At the beginning of August 2009, the Syncro_T3_Australia group underwent an extensive reorganization, the principal feature of which was the requirement for all members to re-register. This had been made necessary by the presence on the membership list of anonymous traders who were using the group for free advertising to a captive audience. The membership list was also thickly populated with anonymous members of whom we knew nothing.
Syncro_T3_Australia is a mutual technical support and advice group which has no need of anonymous members or anonymous traders. It is a lot easier to give support and advice when we know whom we are supporting so we asked all members to identify themselves and establish their bona fifes. The new membership requirements rectified that. The anonymous traders disappeared overnight and every member on the list is now known.
To maintain this, memberships will be confirmed each year. (I intended to call for renewals in August 2010 but difficult personal circumstances made this impossible.)
