Welcome to the new PaddockGossip.com.

The last couple of months have seen some big changes here at PaddockGossip.com and we would like to take this opportunity to tell you what's new and what we have in store for you in 2008 and beyond.  The site has undergone some extensive development since the end of the 2007 season and this has led to what we believe will significantly enhance your viewing pleasure.  However, just as importantly, we have taken the time to develop the back-end of the site meaning we can speed up development and meet your needs on an ongoing basis.

The genisis of PaddockGossip.com remains exactly the same.  The site is here to promote motorcycle racing on public roads.  It will also remain a website for the fans, you will get what you want.  It is vital that we receive your continued support.  It is difficult for us to provide a professional service in our spare time without charging a fee but we wouldn't have it any other way.  With your support and input into the site we can continue to grow.  As we have stated on various occassions, we have some great plans in the pipeline and we are now beginning to realise them.

So, what's new at PaddockGossip.com?

• A completely revamped design provides the latest news in a fresh and stylish format.
• Our popular forum remains and incorporates a new, fresh look. It is easier to navigate and a more integrated component of the website.
• A revamped fanzone makes it easier to add and link your favourite videos, pictures and quotes. Existing users have a personal account to the website and unlimited data storage to keep and share your favourite memories for prosperity. New registrations to the site will remain free of charge.
• Have something news worthy? You are able to directly submit news items to the editors of PaddockGossip.com and see them published on our new, high impact, front page. You can also print, email and PDF your favourite articles at the click of your mouse. RSS feeds also allow you to recreate our very latest news items wherever you want.
• A new interactive calendar allows you to print directions to each venue. This section will develop over time into a market leading circuit guide.
• Our regular polls make a comeback and we will be adding plenty of new interactive functionality to the site before the start of the season - stay tuned for more on this.
• The same in depth reports and interviews will remain with many more scheduled over the coming year. In addition, we will have even more external motorsport news at your fingertips.

We will have regular quizzes with great prizes up for grabs. DVDs, calendars, posters, books, clothing…it could all be yours.

You want it? You get it. We are always keen to find out exactly what you want. As we collate your ideas, development will continue making the site further meet your expectations.

 Merry Christmas and a happy 2008 from all at PaddockGossip.com.

There'll be a new look for Connor Cummins and for PaddockGossip.com in 2008.
