    For a short time SRO charged our members a fee to race in our series. Paying members were included in the Premium Driver group. You have seen the Premium Driver banner that appears below your profile in forum posts. We don't charge for racing so we have removed the Premium Driver group. You will no longer see that banner below your profile. Nothing else has changed.

    You may see some members with the new SRO Team Member banner like shown above. Make a donation today and become an SRO Team Member.

    I wish to make a donation to your site but I don't want to insult you :eek: and likewise I don't want to give too much as I am a tight fisted northerner :p
    Can you advise what a reasonable donation is and also what is your monthly target as I notice you have a bar below the donation button but it doesn't state what the target is?:confused:

    Thanks

    Thank you Chris for considering a donation. Any amount is much appreciated. You will never insult us by donating any amount to your community :) We've had donations ranging from 2.00 to 50.00. On average we receive donations of around 10.00. Let's just say for now that if 10 members donated 10.00 a month we could cover most of our costs. Some of our monthly costs vary depending on when fees are due, such as licensing fees for software and security, domain costs and other misc. fees. We maintain three dedicated servers and those costs are the same from month to month. But the biggest potential cost of all, manpower, is zero. This community is very lucky to have a group of guys that donate their time. All costs that are not covered by donations are paid for by the owners of SRO. So when you see the donation progress bar at only 50% at the end of the month, you can thank the owners of SRO for covering the other 50% :)
