Re: F1 forum
Number of Members: 9/10 - For only being open 8 days, you have a wonderful amount of members. This shows you have put dedication into the site and have done your best to advertise. Good Job in this section!
Number of Active Members: 3/10 - Unfortunately your members don't stay very long. Most of the things I can say about this section will belong in the Activity Section, so just read ahead over there and that should give you some ideas.
Number of Posts (spam or otherwise): 3/10 - Unfortunately you only have 100 posts on your Forum which normally would include all the posted rules, guidelines, etc. Once again, read the Activity section for more information on this section.

Appearance (first impressions): 7/10 - The blueish style is very nice, although you could request a new logo. Make the logo fit the background (although don't make it blue or it will be hard to see).
Layout: 4/10 - You could do
way better in this section and I think you should of. Only put the Site Announcements and possibly 1 other forum at the top under it. Then move the rest of the General Category to the bottom. Change the top General Categories name to Announcements and you will have a nice layout, which is one of the most important things when you start a forum. Also, add a couple forums, things that you would like to see on a Forum in something you could easily find.
Moderation: 7/10 - This section will bring your average up a little bit and you got this grade because you don't have any other moderators/administrators besides you, and you really don't need them at this point. If you request a review for this forum later and your forum is bigger and you still haven't hired any staff, this grade will be much lower. So once you get more activity on your forum, I would suggest hiring about 1 or 2 moderators that seemed very involved and understand your forum's main topic which is racing.
Activity: 4/10 - You haven't been open that long although you should try to get your members posting immediately once they get there. Try to start some Forum Contests and update your forum with MOD's every once in a while. This will really help your forum grow.
Overall mark (out of 100): 52.90/100 - You could of done
way better with this review. The layout and the Activity section should be taken care of first, then you can start adding things after that. This will help your forum grow to a great extent.
