History websites · built for you by My Front Page

Got an old scrapbook? Give it a website

Newspaper clippings, programmes, photos and results about a driver, an old racing class, or a car with a long history. We turn them into a website of its own, told in order, searchable, and on an address you can share.

The history lives in a box in the garage, with the one person who remembers it all. A My Profile site keeps it, shares it, and lets the people who were there add what they know.

Who it's for

If there's a scrapbook, there's a website in it

A driver

A racing career, season by season

Yours, your dad's or your grandmother's: the cars, the results, the rivals and the day it all came right, told in the order it happened.

A class

An old class or series, and everyone in it

The saloon class nobody runs any more, a club's sprint series, a championship from the sixties: every car, every driver and every report you've kept.

A car

One car, and everything it's been through

Who built it, who raced it, where it hid and who brought it back: the owners in order, the race record and the clippings that prove it.

A sample, and two real sites built the same way

The sample profile of the Harrowfield Special A sample profile · a carThe Harrowfield Special A made-up hill-climb special, to show what a profile looks like: built in a farm shed in 1958, eight seasons on the hills, twenty years under a tarpaulin, and back on the same hill sixty years on. Its timeline, race log, clippings and every owner, in order. Look around the sample → The Bruce Jenner Racing home page Built the same way · a teamBruce Jenner Racing A New Zealand driver and team owner in the SCCA Trans-Am: each car's own story, a timeline to filter, every race meeting on a map, and visitors' own photos and memories. brucejennerracing.com → A driver profile page: Lyn Hatton Built the same way · a driver profileA driver's profile page Who the driver was, what they won and how they drove, with the numbers at a glance and their race log beneath, all from one family scrapbook.

How your profile comes together

From a box of clippings to a website of its own

Tell us what it's about

A driver, a class, a car, a team or a club

The form belowTwo minutes

Send us the start of the story

Who or what it's about, the years, and what you have: a scrapbook, a shoebox of photos, a folder of programmes. Add a few pictures if they're to hand; the rest can come later. We reply by email.

We gather the material

Whatever you have, however it's kept

PhotosClippingsResultsClub records

Phone photos of the scrapbook pages are fine

We read every page: who, where, when, which car and what the paper said. We look up the club and championship records too, and note where the sources disagree so you can tell us which is right.

We build the site

The same build as Bruce Jenner Racing

The sample's timeline: the clipping beside the story
Your coloursYour logo

The story, in the order it happened

The years become the timeline, the cars get their own stories, and every result goes into the race log. Your colours and logo, or one we make for you.

Every photo is credited, and every clipping keeps where it came from.

You check every word

Nothing goes public until you're happy

Read it, show the family, tell us what's wrong

You get the site at a private link first. Spot a wrong date or a better photo, tell us, and we change it.

It goes live

On its own address, ready to share

Hand the address to anyone

Your profile goes up at its own address, like yourstory.myfrontpage.website, or on a domain of your own. Share it with the club, old rivals and the family; they can send in their own photos and memories for you to add.

Found more in the garage? Send it over and it goes on too.
