Unfortunately, for the moment there is a bandwidth limit.
http://www.geocities.com/forhonorandglory2002/Index.htm
If you renamed that page index.htm (with a lower case i) people could use http://www.geocities.com/forhonorandglory2002 as the address to access it, rather than having to type the extra /Index.htm bit.

What could be done to make the website better, or more efficient?
A number of the links seem to be broken, like, the Drive Train link. http://validator.w3.org/checklink?ur...=5&check=Check will give you a list of those and if you want to check other pages you can use http://validator.w3.org/checklink

In terms of being more efficient; it would be easier for you to update things if you hosted it somewhere that supports either Server Side Includes or a language like PHP. That way if you wanted to change the style of all pages, the menu, etc. you would just have to edit one file rather than all of them. If you want some space/help doing this let me know.

I don't see anything falling in to this category; but, I only took a relatively quick look at it.

Some colour might be nice; if the reason you've got everything black and white (with blue links) is that you want it to be easy to print a nicer way to accomplish that goal is to use a print media style sheet. You could also try switching the font to Arial rather than Times New Roman.



Miscellaneous suggestion: If I were you I'd add a section about FIRST-Related organisations about what they are that has introductory level text (maybe a paragraph blurb for each). Of course; I suppose I do have a vested interest in that being spread, though :-)
