The easiest and best way is just to show up. Hang out and drive with local members. Get to know them, and give them time to get to know you. Not much more to it than that. Of course, if there are no local members, that makes that pretty tough. In the same vein, if there are no local members, there is nothing to be gained by joining. This is not the PCA; we do not have faceless, anonymous members that never show up for, or participate, in anything. This is a very small club comprised of friends who know each other, help each other, and spend time with each other. And drive the piss out of these old cars. This is all about active participation. We're not looking for names just to fill a roster; that's what the PCA is for. Why would anyone want to join a small driving club if they either cannot (for whatever reason) or will not (again, for whatever reason) participate? There are absolutely no benefits outside of participation. None.

So, Rsquared, if there are members in your area, or if you don't mind driving a ways to meet up with them, just get ahold of them. It looks like Curt is helping you with that. When you do hook up with them, you will find them friendly and welcoming. Drive with them a bit; see if you actually want to continue to do so. If so, and you have a good time with them, everything just kind of falls into place from there. It's all pretty darned informal. The key is actually meeting and getting to know the locals; that's all. Pretty straight forward.
