HMG to launch new F500 website!

Hi guys,

I just wanted to let you all know that we're in the process of cloning EFCN to launch www.formula500.org, which will run like this site to aggressively promote and support F500 racing. We'll publish all news and information, press releases and race reports that are sent to us, and the new site will be the home to the F500 forums as well. Once the site is up and running, we'll start filling it with info on the class, how to get started, and profiles of all the current car builders etc. We'll obviously have the banner advertising on the site and the rates will be extremely affordable. We hope that the industry will step up to support us.

We'll be taking the F500 forums off of EFCN once we've moved the existing database to the new site. At that time, we'll ask you guys if you want any changes or additions to the forum sections.

Any feedback on what you'd like to see on the new site would be appreciated. Just post it here and we'll get things rolling.

Hi guys,

We are currently in the process of planning the launch of Formula500.org and the moving of these forums to that website. This may happen as earlier as today, so you might want to hold off on too many forum posts right now, as I don't want too many of them to go missing in the swap.

Stay tuned and I'll let you know when it's all going down.

I presume these forums will remain active for a while....to at least direct late comers to the new location?

In fact, the new site is already up and running, so you can head to www.formula500.org to continue the discussions.

A direct link to the forums would be:

http://www.formula500.org/forum.php?c=9

The site prep will continue to show just F500 news.
