So having alot of different forums and subforums is great of you have a huge site (like LS1Tech) but it seems like a good majority of the sections are fairly small on this site. What about merging some of the sections until they get larger. For example I think "Tuning and PCM", "Fueling and Injection", "Dyno Results" and even "Forced Induction" and "Nitrous Oxide" can all be covered in the "LT1-LT4" forum. "Brakes", "Drivetrain", "Suspension" and "Exhaust" could also be made into one large section. Maybe that would be a little much, but I deffinietly think there could be some downsizing.
In my opinion a few busy forums looks better than alot of slow(er) ones. I also think it would help distinguish this site a little more from LS1Tech. Of course, this is only a suggestion.
Great work on this site guys. I hope things keep going well.

I personally like the set up now. I think its a lot more helpful the way its divided up, and easier to find the info you need.
Just my $.02

I just click the "new posts" link at the top of the page and don't even bother looking at each sub forum. If I want to search something specific I just use the search function.
That's what's nice about this still being a fairly small board, the new posts are typically only 3-4 pages if you check on here daily.

Yup.... "new post"er here too.
I like it being divided up though. Easier to browse, and MUCH easier to search. Besides.... it's nice to have the layout to grow with.

Would probably frequent a lot less if they were combined
I simply don't want to sift through nitrous posts to find out more forced induction info
Combining stuff would just make the posts you're looking for harder to find
I myself like the way its set up also.

It is setup the way it is to avoid as much confusion as possible as well as direct traffic. Though you have a solid idea, it would just be madness. Plus, having the forums spread out a bit more allows us to have more moderators. Most are experts in the section they moderate which really helps out.

Maybe my idea was a little large, but I still think we can cut back on some forums - but again, thats not my call.
I just noticed we have a Racing forum and a Kill Section forum. I'm assuming the "Kill Section" is for street racing, but I see posts about regular drag racing too.
Sorry if it seems like I'm bitching - just trying to make suggestions.

I don't think your bitching at all! Helpful suggestions are always welcome!
