OCIDE is a car club of car enthusiasts (all makes and models), based on Oklahoma. We invite anybody with a passion for cars, regardless of what they currently drive ("beater", "slab", "Low rider", muscle, import, tuner, domestic, etc, etc), to join us in our many events, cruises, or activities. We combine forces with other car clubs for events including (but not limited to) the Oklahoma Z Car Club and Porsche clubs for Track Days at the Sheriff's track (and hopefully soon... Hallet), Nismokc and the "drift" scene when we can... and attend car shows and other events held by any number of clubs or groups.
As much fun as we try to have, and as accomodating as we try to be to all the different styles of cars and people, we do have a few rules and regulations.
- Don't be a douche. If you have any questions or concerns about your "douche status", please contact an Admin. If you're having a bad time hanging out with us, feel free to leave on your own accord. If you choose not to leave and your douche-dragon cannot be contained... you will be asked to leave, and removed from the group.
- All "new" members are on a "Trial Status" until we get a chance to meet you (and to give them a chance to see is this is something they're interested in participating in). We do weekly meets and we require new members to come out usually within a month. After we've had a chance to meet you, we will decide as a group if we think you're a fit, or not. If you cannot (or do not plan to) come out to one of our events in this time frame, you will be removed from the group.
- All active members are highly encouraged to come out at least once a month. We are not just an "internet forum" in that all we do is post pictures and chat. This club is based on participation, and that's what helps promote us all as a group. Any member who does not make an effort to come out from time to time will be subject to review, and possible removal from the Facebook group and forum.
- All current members are highly encouraged to display the club sticker on their vehicles. While it is not a requirement for membership, it is a requirement to be eligible for prizes, trophies, and/or any other club-sanctioned "reward" and/or "perk". (Stickers are $10 for your first, $5 for each additional, and available from Ryan Potter)
- No "bashing/hating/dissing/whatever" other members vehicles. Some joking comradery is expected and tolerated, but because we strive to not be biased for a particular brand, make, or design of vehicle... you may be asked to keep yourself in check if it gets out of hand. We all have our own preferences in what kind of vehicle and it's styling that we like, but if you want to be part of OCIDE, you need to accept that others preferences may just be different, and all of us should support them and let them do their thing.
- Any previously active member who cannot attend meets due to health, deployment status, or having moved outside of an area that would permit them to attend events are allowed to maintain their Facebook-group access and are welcome to continue to post (at an Admin's discretion). In the event of having moved, you are no longer considered an "active member" for eligibility of prizes, trophies, or awards unless specifically permitted.
These, of course, are subject to change as we grow and evolve, but that should just about cover it. As usual, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please contact an Administrator for further information.
