27th September 2009.
It’s been a long and hard week this one. With the announcement of start dates and sites available we have been quite busy with the application forms. They can still be downloaded as we did have an e-mail this week notifying us that the URL/link was broken. Thank for pointing that out to us. For those who missed the blogs this week, the paperwork can be found at http://www.f1hp.com/applicationform.pdf
We have made it quite clear that we are not seeking your money and I wish to provide that assurance at the outset. At this stage it’s simply your opportunity to register your interest for a club to which you feel you have already identified a location that you feel is suitable and acceptable to hold the F1 Hoverpod® Racing events in the UK.
The clubs site whilst being a bit basic is working. It will form part of the communal UK web site format to which the clubs and events will be displayed and promoted through, this can be found at www.f1hp.com
The news regarding production will be announced shortly but the assurance is that we on schedule.
We will be up dating the news site shortly wish some announcements and as always this can be found at www.hoverpod-news.com . On that point I notice that many of you ask us where the kids can have a go on the Hoverpod® game, if you go to the news site at www.hoverpod-news.com and look toward the bottom of the page, you will find the game. I’m told that it’s quite testing and that kids (Not Dad’s) master it quite quickly.

Keep the comments flying in..................and the jokes !!.

July up date.

Following up on last Month’s posting, we have some major announcements in the shadows and when permission has been granted to share with you the information, I will make it available for you all to comment upon.

This week we have one announcement which will help silence the skeptics amongst the Hovercraft fraternity who still assume that gossip is the way forward and that fact is something that is rarely if ever in their world.

I recommend to everyone to view the Journal produced by the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining Exchange which can be found at http://www.iom3.org/ and who used the words “We are compiling some case histories of successful Spark Awards and yours came to the top of the list” and requested permission to use F1 Hoverpod Racing as it’s number one example of how a Business can develop and succeed in a recession. It is a great honor and privilege to have those comments from such a prestigious institution and who’s reputation is without question. The Institute who are also supported by their colleagues at the Royal College of Art & Design and can be found at http://www.rca.ac.uk/ chose F1 Hoverpod Racing to support with it’s expertise in composite technology and as a result enabled F1 Hoverpod to win the spark award and prize of £5,000.00 which was invested in developing new designs and materials to be used in the Hoverpod manufacture process.

You can now also follow our daily work routine and developments as they happen on "Twitter", you can check us out at www.twitter.com/f1hoverpod

Our supporters can now keep appraised via our www.myspace.com/f1hoverpodracing site, where you are welcomed and encouraged to post information, pictures and comments on this site.

Keep watching the Blogs as we have some more major events and announcements to post shortly and we are now welcoming new forum members at www.f1hoverpodracing/forum

Keep the support and spirit of enterprise moving forward.

Firstly, let me start by wishing you all a “Happy New Year for 2009”.

Lets start with dealing with the negative internet Postings to which we have had to endure for the most of last year in which we have been fully vindicated and although on going Legal Proceedings forbid me from saying too much, what I can say is the instigator as part of their settlement has had to post a retraction which you can find here . I would also suggest you view the rest of the CV by clicking here .

Now for the positive, the new web site which will be found at www.f1hoverpodracing.com will be working within 2 weeks, and for those who still need to refer to the original 3D images and information, we are keeping www.f1hoverpod.com running for a while.

For the interested parties and the rumour mongers amongst us, the answer to the question posted recently in regards to fan/blade technology is something I can confirm is true, all being well we should be able to offer a fan blade for sale when British Standards and Health & Safety approve it for Hoverpod® Use.

The new members of the team is something we are very proud to be associated with and when formal appointments have been concluded, I will of course share this information as normal through our blogs and new site’s.

Finally, the message to all of the team is to show respect and kindness to all in 2009 and with the credit crunch effecting most people, the message from the Team is that the road to success is paved by Hoverpod®.
