Gallery Update!

Author: Ry | Filed under: Rat Look General, Rat Look Site Updates

Evening peeps!

Just a quick update to let you all know that the 2nd Official Rat Look meet has been planned. It’s been pinned ‘Return of the Rat’. Fifty of the UK’s best rat cars rocking out to beers, tunes, drag racing, time attack, moddin’ by moonlight and the 1 hour ‘Rat Challenge’ hosted by Gimp Getswood himself. All held at Shakespeare County Raceway in Stratford-Upon-Avon.

This is penned in for May 22nd/23rd 2010 – The bad news for people who are just reading this is that all 50 places were taken in a matter of days. It may bring a tear to your eye, but don’t worry! As we have another official meet a few months down the line after this one, with a date of August the 28th/29th! Check out the below links for further details.

You know this is going to be another crazy meet! Keep an eye out on the forum for more details on this and any future events, as we’re not only organising our own meets, but we’re now taking part with the major UK shows this year..

Peace out!

A year ago today was the day I thought to myself *I’m bored of car forums and I’m bored of seeing what the next sheep has done to their vehicle*.

Then I came across the many styles of ratting by total fluke on a image search.. It felt a bit like the first time I watched the Sex Pistols on TV.

I quickly came across this abused drift example and I was totally hooked!

It had to happen, it was going happen, and it did! The rest is history. Hours later the website was bought and being worked on constantly, and still is to this day.

So I type this just to say thanks to everyone that’s become part of the community and forum – you’re all a great, friendly bunch and have some fantastic cars that forever change.

For the moderators and event organisers for all their hard work, for the magazines and their coverage, for the people that love the many rat styles old and new, and even more thanks for the people that hate everything about this style which makes the rest of us bond together even more! (we love you).

All I’m left to say is – Happy Birthday Rat-Look.com!

Evening all! Thought I’d drop a quick post in before 2010 hits!

Most of you will notice a slight(!) change in the website. Yup – We’ve upgraded! Something easier to manage, so we can update you lot more often with the latest rat news, even via twitter on the top right, add further rat cars to the gallery and also a calendar on the right hand side bar so you don’t miss any of the important shows or meets this year! Click each link on that and it’ll take you straight to the thread you want on the forum with all the info!

We’ve got a few tiny things to clear up still, but hopefully it’ll add enjoyment to the website for everyone involved. Expect another update shortly with other news.

That’s all for now folks!
