I would recommend Macromedia Dreamweaver to create the site, and vbulletin for the forums. There is also some free forums like YaBB and phpBB

yip ive got that software but id like something like ones premade eg all you do is add you info (one i made earlyer www.mayo-motorsport-club.com ) -something like that but a bit differant

in order to run a forum directly on your site you're going to need PHP enabled and a MySQL database.

If you want a pre-made kind of thing, just try searching google for "free web templates" or something similiar. There's a lot of good free stuff out there.
