Gallery Update!

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

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!

Website Update

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

Here we are, only 6 months young and already we have our first meet organised, the imaginatively named RAT-LOOK.com Meet. This is the first event of this type in the UK, ever…… With 26 cars and over 40 members already confirmed for this meet it’s going to be the maddest event of the summer. The event of the year is going to be held on the 29/30th August at Shakespeare County Raceway, Stratford Upon Avon the only place bonkers enough to suit our needs!

An aeroplane graveyard for photoshoots by FASTCAR magazine and us? Check. A whole airfield for an Autotest circuit? Check. Excellent camping facilities? Check. A Rat Car convoy through sleepy Stratford Upon Avon? Check. An awards ceremony including Best Rat Car, Best Non Rat Car, Spirit of Rat-Look award, and a few not so serious awards? Check. BBQ’s and Beer? Check. Oh and a small bonus extra, A QUARTER MILE DRAG STRIP? CHECK… If you are in love with the idea then come join us. Simply register on the site, and follow this link to the thread. All the details can be found inside. This meet is ONLY available to RAT-LOOK.com members, so what are you waiting for? An invite? Check…

Of course that’s not the only thing happening on rat-look lately. The site is always being improved here and there, and I’m proud to say that the Gallery page is now live and is growing slowly but surely to host a huge amount of pictures for you fellow ratters to gawp over. And there is also a section for rat look members to have their guides to ratting placed on the website, but this is in very early stages… However don’t worry about how the site currently looks – once all the content is up, our looks will improve, much like a rat over time.. If anyone’s pretty hot with graphics, this would be your que to e-mail me!

We’ve got a busy few months ahead, and with the site getting close to nearly double the members since our post less than 2 months ago, it’s only going to get bigger and better!. Oh, whilst I remember, if you want your car on the mainsite gallery, post in this thread and it may become part of the site in the near future!

That’s it for now, anything else, let me know! Ta.

Welcome to May’s update of rat-look.com!

Things seem to just keep getting busier and busier, with members from all over net joining up to the forum daily. We’re now well above the 100+ members milestone (149 and counting) and have twice as many posts compared to the last update, and all within a matter of a few months. Before long there may be the need for a moderator or two soon so the forums can be looked after a lil’ better, so watch this space.

Our lovely member “God” (Ash) has sent out the first batch of rat look stickers a short time ago, and it seems they’re loved by one and all so well done to the dude for a top job on that one. Hopefully they’ll be more made soon eh *hint hint*…

The forums been given an off topic section for you all to pour your random thoughts and jokes into as well. The next main focus is to basically add more to the main website – I’ll try and get off my arse and finish the photo gallery soon enough. Apologies as well for all the bots that kept signing up in April as well, it’s now under control (well about 99% anyway)

If anyone has any more suggestions to add to the “styles of rat” page then let me know, we have a couple but there’s so many more out there that I’m not even aware of so give me your input guys! :)

That’s pretty much it. Again, any ideas let me know! even if it’s a small suggestion or if you’ve spotted a mistake .. For now though, laters peeps!
