Ok, this is just an idea but,
How about the club organise a video to be made? It sounds quite ambitious I know but one of the other car clubs I belong has done 3 DVDs now and they are are a free to join forum. Zclub.net incase you're wondering. It's a club for Datsun Z owners which as a club would have less members than RTOC if you had to pay for membership due to the rareness of the cars.
If you could find a small firm willing to edit/produce the DVD for a large advertising space on the DVD case then I'm sure price wouldn't be too bad. Maybe even filming too?
Advertising space could also be sold on the DVD. A short video advert from the likes of Ktec promoting modern renault turbo services etc and still images from current board advertisers with a nod towards club discounts that they already offer?
Thoughts of what could be covered:
National day. Track time, rolling road, interviews with attendees especially the foreign contingent.
A dyno day such as the recent one that happened at scoffs
Sangliers. Someone to document the trip and goings on
Interviews with the tuners. If someone such as scoff or Hi5 were willing to have a feature on there own big power cars and what would make an ideal fast road car with a members motor including hints and tips etc maybe even before and after dyno runs with mild mods?
General buyers guide for the gt turbo. Maybe with a real clean car like big Steves raider showing you where to look for rot or wear and tear etc
Tech article. Maybe a brief how to on a carb rebuild or similar?
Old coupe cup clips.
Recent cup car action
Pod day coverage
Maybe some original renault 5 adverts from the likes of YouTube?
It's just a thought that IS possible and has proved profitable with the z club. As said they're 3 or 4 films in now (I've got 3 of them) but it would be a large commitment.
However, it won't just appeal to members of this forum. If it was sold on eBay I imagine it would do very very well at say £12-£15 a pop.
Don't shoot me down please ;) just a thought for promoting the club whilst improving revenue.
I'd be more than willing to help out where I could.
