lots of good news. i don't get all the legalese either but figure it's all to protect the owners, officers, etc so necessary. and things will get more comfortable as we start 'doing'. looks like there has been a lot of thought put into this. thanks for the dedication and open minds.

[QUOTE="MojaveMel"]LIGreenManx: The Manx registry is considered proprietary and will be retained by Bruce and Winnie. Providing tags for cars without them also falls to MM Inc. Some of us have also brainstormed the registry idea. It'd be neat to have a registry for all types of buggies. Th...
