I know I haven't been around long but I can see where from an admin. or owner point of view, this is the smart decision. "dragVA" DOES make it sound like it was all about drag racing, and kept me from joining for a long time until I spent the time to check the site out. This appeals to a broader range of auto enthusiasts.

Also perhaps in the public eye, being a member of "DragVA" could associate you (to the outsider, of course) with some of the dangerous and stupid street racers that have killed themselves and others. Maybe VaDriven isn't the best choice of names, but I think you all can understand why it was done. Whether you like it or not, your favorite forums ARE a business, and run as such.

I don't think a simple name change will change the forum. After all...the forum is what its contributing members make it, not what any name implies.
