Collapsing Tech Section - input plz!
Hey everyone,
I've been thinking about doing this on and off over the last year or so, but what would you guys think about collapsing the Tech section a bit?
Our current Categories (8 categories):
Forced Induction
Internals Tech
Drivetrain and Suspension Tech
Electrical and fun Gadget Tech
General Basic & Advanced Tech
Body/Paint General Appearance
Auto Insurance
The Good Stuff
Proposed New Organization #1 (5 categories):
Tuning/Electrical (ecu, gadgets, electronics, add-ons)
Turbo/Engine/Drivetrain
Brakes/Body/Suspension
Auto Insurance (I like having a specific section for this)
The Good Stuff (proposed to move to the TOP of the tech section for better visibility?)
Proposed New Organization #2 (4 categories):
Power Tuning Tech (ecu, electrical, turbo, engine)
Body Tuning Tech (brakes, body, suspension, tires, etc) (or Chassis Tuning Tech?)
Auto Insurance
The Good Stuff
I'm open to more suggestions and feedback!

Re: Collapsing Tech Section - input plz!
I like option #1 the most, makes the most sense. Option #2 is slightly too broad.

Re: Collapsing Tech Section - input plz!
Cool, we could always collapse option1 down to option2 if need be.
Any more opinions? I'll leave this open for a few days, it'll be a little bit of a process to get all the old threads organized in the new format. We'll schedule some time with all the admins to do the move next week sometime.

Re: Collapsing Tech Section - input plz!
#1 but ditch the insurance forum (pointless and mostly unused anymore IMO). I like the idea of Good Stuff moved to the top of Tech.

Re: Collapsing Tech Section - input plz!
Insurance section could just be stickied to the top of the 'good stuff' section as a sub forum.

You da man goodhart!
Here it is, Option#3:
-Tuning/Electrical (ecu, gadgets, electronics, add-ons)
-Turbo/Engine/Drivetrain
-Brakes/Body/Suspension
-The Good Stuff (proposed to move to the TOP of the tech section for better visibility?)
|--Auto Insurance (sub forum of Good Stuff)
We're going to start implementing these new sections over the next few days! Please feel free to post in here if you have questions, in the parking lot, etc and PLEASE BE PATIENT while we reorganize. Things will look funny for a day or so, We'll clean it up I promise
