    How do you like to be pitched?

    PEOPLE 
    I've found that when we're looking for services and collaborations, most people give me a vanilla request and vanilla pitch, with no consideration as to if we may be a good fit with one another. Obviously, part of the blame here is on me for accepting these calls. However, I appreciate it when...

    Hi Again (12 years since I signed up)

    INTRO 
    This a slightly unusual post; however, I feel it necessary to post a new introduction as the reality is that I'm a different person than I was when I first read The Fast Lane and joined this community twelve years ago. My name is (still) Chris, and I run a game development studio. A Quick...

    Honest feedback needed : Website layout

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Thanks everyone for the feedback, it really is invaluable at this stage. All the meets, events and clubs are real, however the majority of them were added by myself (there are thousands still to add for just the UK), I am hoping as the sites user-base and popularity grows that others will add...

    Honest feedback needed : Website layout

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Thanks for the feedback :) I understand what you're saying however We're just a "hub", any events that are hosted on our site are usually hosted elsewhere like on facebook or on their own private server, many of which require a ticket purchased through a 3rd party or purchasable at the gates...

    Honest feedback needed : Website layout

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Was thinking of ditching the boxy layout of the posts and doing a more traditional blog style postings The box posts looks nice when you add new posts (it all shuffles along) but.. it's more form>function I think with the more traditional layout, it's one less thing to get your head around +...

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Thank you for the feedback :) The site is currently UK / IRL until we've ironed everything out and ready to go to other International English speaking countries then eventually International, starting with countries that have a big car scene. Initially I didn't want a splash/intro screen as I...

    Hi guys. Been a while since I've been on here and I'm pleased to announce that my project is now live :D So far from everyone I've spoken with 99% of them think the website is a fantastic idea. However I've had a handful of people (mainly those closer and more honest with me) say that the...

    wow .. I'm actually "doing" it... feedback welcome!

    Thanks, however i looked into this as an option and nothing provided something that was much use to me and was decided to be a much better idea if i both learnt and built the website myself, as if it ever went wrong, i could fix it, and if any features needed to be added, there was no middle man...

    wow .. I'm actually "doing" it... feedback welcome!

    I have looked over that site and other similar competition for what works and more importantly what does t work , looks wise there was one in paticular that looked very nice without compromising functionality , lucky for me that site has since died .

    wow .. I'm actually "doing" it... feedback welcome!

    Haha, that's agood point . I will be revising the entire look of the site, logo, show car and stickers when the site is ready to go live. For now I'm doing one thing at a time (you should of seen it before the current look !) so I'm making sure the site works and all functionality is in before...

    wow .. I'm actually "doing" it... feedback welcome!

    So i started getting my "fastlane" business going about 9 months back. I quit my job to dedicate more time to the project, 3 months later I had a solid plan of action and knew what to do, and how to do it. Over the last 6 months I've been learning and building the website that will hopefully be...

    Guy Shows Off His Exotic Car Collection - Motivational Video

    to be fair, in an interview it did say his neighbor had a Gallardo, so its a fair assumption to say he was fairly well off to begin with living in a location where someone can afford such a car, still no excuse for the commenter to get off his/her butt and make it happen! [edit] ok after...

    Buying or Selling a car on the Net

I've always found ebay to be the best place to sell...

    Another Commandment of Control lesson...

    I'm assuming there are other Ad agencies out there similar to Adsense, won't be too hard for the guy to find another surely? This is a problem i may face in the early days of my website, however once i have a proven user base i hope to ditch adsense and in its place sell ad space directly to...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    So i have recently finished the book, and I'm extremely happy i picked it up as it re-enforces pretty much everything i had initially thought, as well as some things i had overlooked or not thought of yet. In essence a fantastic book which should be common sense to ALL business owners. PS. MJ...
