We are at an exciting transition for the club. We will be moving away from a Mazda specific club and turning into a general automotive club. A number of the members over the last few years have moved from being Mazda owners to owning other makes. We have decided to embrace the transition and open our club fully to all automotive types, makes and models. We welcome all cars, trucks, and bikes. The transition to start with reorganizing the existing forum layout starting this week. Once we have the layout working, we will be switching software.

We are in the process of updating the forum and changing the club name.

The new club will be named Colorado Automotive Enthusiasts but the coloradomazdaclub.com will still work, it will just redirect to the new club.

Don't worry, none of your build threads or tech info will be lost. We will be reorganizing the forum layout and cleaning out dead threads.

If you use the club gallery or garage, we recommend that you back up any images you have saved there. We are not sure if they will work on the new forum.

As a currently active, non-mazda owning user, I support this move. My wife even asked if she could participate since it isn't going to be make specific now. So that is interesting.

She just wants to check up on you. haha

All are welcome.

All, I'm sure you've seen forum restructure, I'd like to provide a quick mapping as to where your old posts may have gone. If you would like any of your vehicle specific threads moved, please let me know.
