The c5alive "Hall of Fame"
« on: 20, February, 2013 - 13:01:42 »
I've chatted with Dan and weve freed up some time to try and get the Hall of Fame sorted. It's all there and ready to go from a programming point of view. We just need a list of famous C5s together with a photo/pictures and a "write up" about each of them.

My proposal is to feature Adam Harpers record breaking C5 , the Lotus C5's and our own Challenger and C-5000 . Any other historically significant c5's ?
To keep things progressing is anyone willing to help by doing the research and write up for the Adam Harper C5 and the Lotus C5's ? I'll take care of the feature for the c5000 and challenger projects.

Dan and I will have final editorial control over articles submitted as we may have to chop and change some stuff according to space and layout  ;)
