The assumption that everyone who posts on here is made welcome is one that does not bear scrutiny. I've never understood the fascination this forum has with RaceChat, to the exclusion of comments about any other forum. But maybe that's because I am not in this clique...
This forum exists because racechat wasn't everything we needed - I'd have happily only ever used racechat but it changed and a lot of us moved over to doughtyuk.net.
I'd have happily stayed on doughty! but I needed to create a forum because doughty was a sponsor-focused forum for CD's sponsors and I'd just done a review of the Lazer ZX5 and had nowhere to start talking about this stuff with respect to CD's loose rules. Still - doughty was the place until it got hacked.

I'm a big fan of racechat and what rob's built. Whilst I might not have chosen to go the same route with some things, it still remains that rcracechat was a big help to me back in 2002/3 and I've some good memories of it. I'd love to run it and make it bigger and better than ever in its own right.....

So - the original core of members on here all come from rcracechat, and there is your answer as to the fascination. I'm fascinated!
