Lot's of members and enthusiasts ask us at shows and events about certain elements of the club/website. So here is a little guide to answer a few of the most common questions and hopefully encourage you to use some of the resources we have on offer.
The Steam Car Club Forum
The Steam Car Club hosts its very own forum where like-minded individuals can talk to fellow enthusiasts about their car, their plans, events and all about steam. - in fact you can talk about anything else too in the Forum. You can go to the forum by clicking on the relevant links around the site, there is one over on the left menu bar. Or you can go direct to the forum by clicking this link:
The Forum
If you are ARE A MEMBER OF THE CLUB and wish to post an item or reply to someone else's, you can join. Joining is simple - fill in your details, a relevant username and the process will start
However, to stop the recent increase of Spam on the forum, we now manually approve all new members prior to their first posting. So to help us, help you - SEND US AN EMAIL stating your Username and a brief reason to join to info@steamcar.net and this will help speed up the process.
Once you have registered and been approved take a look at the "Sticky' post
at the top of the page. This gives great help how to post links to pictures or videos.
The Steam Car Club on Facebook
The Steam Car Club has a Facebook account, and again here you can talk to people all over the world, upload pictures, advertise an event near you or contribute in anyway you would like. We use the Facebook page to add lots of photos of recent events and remind everyone of forthcoming events.
Our Facebook page can be found by clicking here:

The Steam Car Club on Youtube
The Steam Car Club has a Youtube channel which it uses to post videos. We then put the videos on the Steam Car Club website. If the video you wish to watch looks a little small, for instance the ones on the front page of the website top left, you can click on the small icon on the bottom right to enlarge the video to full screen size. If you are a member of Youtube, you can leave a comment on the Youtube website and rank the video either good or bad.
