Arrow oOple - What does it mean to you

I recently had a really amazing email from a forum user who was firstly thanking me for the articles I write both here and over on my blog. He then went on to explain how important oOple is to him on a daily basis as he has a physical disability that limits the chances he has to make it to race meeting. He also explained that his 'local' club was a 2 hour journey from his home. The reason this email inspired me was simple. The gent in question stated that oOple gave him a unique opportunity to stay in touch with the sport he loves even though he struggles to get track side on a reguler basis. It got me thinking that it would be really good to hear what each one of you feels when I ask the question.....

What does oOple mean to you....the way I would like to discuss this really positive story is for all of you who read this thread to take a few seconds to post a comment that completes the following statement...oOple is...........

I thought this would be a really positive way for us all to share our thoughts on how this amazing platform brings us pleasure, and also a really wonderful thread to show new readers of oOple why we all value this forum so much...My thanks to all forum members,advertisers, and oOple staff for making this site what it is. And a very special thanks to the racer who inspired me to share this idea with you all

So, over to you guys....oOple is.....?

oOple is....

Simply the very best resource for Racing RC in the UK that I have found. I am a born again racer in my mid 40's with a mad keen 11 year old son and the knowledge and experience here has given us a fantastic start (restart) in this great hobby.

Very well said!!!!

To me oOple has become a place I hang out at every day!!!
I've know the oOple team for some time now, been to many international meetings with both Jimmy and Vicky!!!
It is a place to keep up to date with who's who and where they racing, also a great way to keep up with hot new RC products, and also o lot of RC madness!!!

I have spoken to many people about our sport crossing many borders, such as age, race, gender, physical ability etc. Our sport stands out above the rest in my opinion.

The RC world would be less of a world without the oOple team!!!

Well said above ^^^

I think we can thank oople for the resurgence in 10th off road, it's as popular as ever and this great resource has helped many a racer get back into the class and helped many a newbie to find a club/buy their gear etc.

Big pat on the back to Jimmy and Vicky and all the other people that make oople so good.

Best forum on the net!

Oople is...

A window on the world. In here you will find the knowledgable and the ignorant, the literate and the illiterate, the verbose and the brief, the bigots and the pub critics, the Monday-morning referees and the volunteers who get the races done. Oople allows you to observe all of life and if you can't treat them all equally, there are other forums you should be on!
