Where Did All The Great Race Car Build Threads Go?

[Duncan]

Unfortunately in creating the new Projects and Build section, some of the best content of the motorsport forum was moved out. This thread is an index and discussion for those links.

Please let me know any other cars I have missed (I'm sure there are some) but in keeping with the "motorsport" theme I was only really looking for the dedicated track cars - road registered cars even if they do some track work rightly belong in the builds section.

Thanks Duncan. I have PM'd Col GTx who did the moving (I think his name is?) about this a couple of days ago and haven't heard anything back.

I think the builds forum was created for him so he could have something to moderate?

Like I said to him, I think most of us in the Motorsport section only really visit the MS section, so all these great builds are effectively lost.

[Duncan]

yeah, not col's call. the moderation team as a group decided to create the new section, col just had the permissions to move them. not a fan of the change personally because i think the motorsport section was really showing how great these cars are, and how many cheap, effective and easy ways there are to race them.

so I started this thread

[zebra]

and how many cheap,

Cheap ....mine is the biggest budget nugget ever and its already cost me thousands lol.

Maybe we could start threads in here about out own "racing" seperate from the builds, stating how we went in the rounds etc, kinda like a blog or somthing, so the motorsport section junkies can read up on how the cars are going whilst racing not being built.

[Duncan]

absolutely, knock yourself out! I'm tracking my progress in the NSW State Champs thread but its not just about me, its for any SAU people in the series. Lucky since I missed the last 3 rounds but will be back for next one in mid sept
