Register Splits

[CLIFFWILKINS]

Hi .
Quick question maybe someone can answer and clarify.

As you all know the Boxster Register has been split into North & South which I might add is not our decision.

As above when Tracy was told of the register was being split into North & South she was told it will happen to various other Registers i.e Cayman, 997, 991 etc.

I have seen no evidence of other Registers being split or advertised .
So my question is when can we expected other Registers to be split.
Yes the above have almost as many members .

At the officials zoom call on Thursday the VC stated that there was no appetite to split any other registers. Of course things can change!

Funny that Peter there's a surprise says it all.
Total travesty the whole affair.

Hopefully the Board have learnt their lesson Cliff and will discuss the matter with the respective Register Secretaries should they plan to make any future changes.

Cheers Jeff.

If Peters comments are correct no appetite for further Register splits its disappointing why the Boxster Register is singled out when Tracy has done a sterling job never once felt overwhelmed especially with the support of her Boxster team and members for the whole of the Register all over the UK.
Our perception and feedback is the majority never wanted this split, you only had to look at the comments on social media and why social media needs splitting as well beggars belief.

It just alienates members but hey ho, as said total travesty the whole affair.
I doubt the current board will take note it never worked for the 991 Register I know for a fact as I know both guys who ran it together just causes confusion .
As Peter says things can change.

It dumbfounds me when a Register has been run so brilliantly by the most dedicated folks any club could ever wish for and they then do something so asinine as this

It really is inexcusable and I take my hat off to you guys remaining so publicly calm and professional in the light of their action

Why fix it when it’s not broken?
It was fine before.

Exactly.

Indeed .
Hope it wasn't a smoke screen just to do the Boxster Register for some reason.
I hope other Registers will follow suit as told as I see this as unfair.

Thanks Daro.
May I also take this opportunity to thank you for your continuous input on the Boxster section. Thread Are Spyders becoming extinct.

Thanks Cliff for your kind words but it really is only a drop in the ocean compared to what Tracy & you have done for our corner of Porsche Club GB

Hats off to you both

For anyone interested in the levels of ownership in each register, there is some 2023 data in the members only area: https://www.porscheclubgb.com/forum/threads/register-splits.218036/
