Les,
I involved myself in this topic with all the good intentions of trying to do something for any person who is contemplating building an ICV in the future, you know, to provide them with a simpler and fairer system, knowing that when you started your build, if you followed certain established guidelines and current ADR's, then Engineering and Registration would only be a formality.
After reading the background of what transpired in the past, I really feel sorry for blokes like the former National Cobra Club President, John Staynski.
He had the guts to speak up while everyone else who would benefit from his hard work, just sat back and waited for a positive result, reluctant to get involved in case they offended someone.
John was representing the Australian Cobra Collective. Unlike the Cobra Collective, the Street Rod Federation planned their action together as a highly cohesive group, each member aiming at the same target and not caring who they offended in order to achieve their desired objectives.
Well I'm a quick learner. I've been through this hoop before and I don't plan on going there again. A lone voice is nothing. It achieves nothing except frustration. On the other hand a large group or organisation which carries with it a number of Electoral Votes speaks far louder. If John Staynski couldn't achieve his dream as the National President, how can I achieve mine as a lone voice.
It's obvious that I'm wasting my time, time which I was prepared to donate to make future builders lives a lot easier.
Liam. Rebel's correct. Talk with your Engineer.
