I thought VTR *was* a club "for all Triumphs" ? Or do you mean there
should
be only one club ?
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Ah ha! Now we get to the "Meat" of the issue. The reason there are
specialty clubs is because VTR is not satisfying the needs of the
members that started their specialty clubs. This is why NASS (North
American Spitfire Squadron) was started.
Personally, I would love to see only one club that did satisfy
everyone's needs, but I don't see that happening. It gets back to this
"elitist" issue. Everyone has his own idea of what the "Best" Triumph
is and whether he cares to realize it or not, it does affect how he
approaches events, articles and other issues as they pertain to their
model versus other models.
So if somebody wants to work toward a magic formula that does away with
that issue, I am all for it. It would certainly make it a lot less
expensive for all the clubs to be under a single banner and have a
single cost structure than the way it is now. Plus it would mean that
you only to have to pay dues to a single club.
Cheers,
Joe
