Passionford isn't an official "Club" as such, like the RSOC. It is run like a business by Stu and Pet. So there is not a fund or massive pool of money from memberships like the RSOC ALLEGEDLY have.
Any money received from gold membership and trade membership goes back into hosting, maintaining and constantly improving the site.
And shows cost ALOT of money to set up. You could get 100 people here, now to promise to help fund it! But when it comes to the crunch unfortunately, people always let you down...
BUT there are meets up and down the country and Pf always has a big stand with member cars on it at all major shows, join in on one of them
