Why Do I Need to Register?
The reasons
I've decided to go with registration is to keep control of who
has access to all the information that it's members have worked
so hard to put together. The last
thing I want to see is a bunch of undesirable spammers and
scammers posting links to their male enhancement products,
sleazy pornography sites, discount Canadian online drug stores
and the like. Bottom line, if it's not about the history
of motorsports, it doesn't belong here.
Also, not
everyone is comfortable having their names, email addresses and
other personal information posted for all to see. When you
register for the Member's Section, you can create a fictitious
screen name to use, instead of using your real name.
Though a valid email address is required to sign up, while
creating your profile you can choose the option of keeping it
hidden from public view to protect your privacy.
Whether your
goal is to research, or just looking for a place to "hang out"
with people with the same interests, TheVintageRacer.com is
your website to enjoy and use as you like. I'm just
the guy who pushes the buttons. Since the site has moved
to a new host, the package I purchased states that we now have
unlimited storage and unlimited bandwidth. I'd like to
test that statement!
Lastly, none
of the personal information of registered members will ever be
sold or disclosed to outside sources. I despise spam mail
as much as you do.
So please,
sign up and join in. I look forward to seeing what all of
you have to share.
Sincerely,
Dave Zortman

Wait!:
There's still one more important step!
Due to a high volume of fake registrations by
scammers and spammers (100+ per day!), you are now required
to do the following before your account will be approved:
Once you have completed your registration, you must also
send an email to us at tvr1@comcast.net from
the same email account you used in your registration,
along with a sentence or two as to what areas of motor
racing history are of interest to you. You don’t have to
write anything epic. This is just to let us know that you
are a human and not a software program looking to place
spam.
This should greatly help us to verify
legitimate new members. Your cooperation is greatly
appreciated.
