That is what the individual forums are for. if I'm looking for info on my TC4, I got to the electric forum. If I'm looking for a tip for my t-maxx, I'll go to the traxxas monster truck forum. this way I don't have to wade through all the info on models I don't have like nitro on road or 1.8 buggies.
I say we should have a Modification forum, if not its own channel, then a sub-channel unde each existing channel. For example, Under the Savage forum, put a mods channel and do so for the Losi and Traxxas forums as well. Also, put an engine mods forum under the nitro and gas engines channels. I have participated in no less than 10 threads under those channels alone that deal strictly with engine modifications. I know more engine mods dedicated threads exist under those channels, but unfortunatetly the search function does not help in pulling only those dedicated threads, it will literally pull thousands more with the phrase "mod" in it. This is the primary reason why noobs dispise it when we tell them "use the search function."
A seperate Mods channel will help somewhat, a subchannel under each existing forum would be better. Ideally, the search function should be tweaked to be more restrictive.
There are two excellent engine mods threads in existence that I know of, but the moderators have not turned them into Sticky threads. There are dozens more great instructional threads, but agin, they have not been turned into stickies. Moderators, please turn these excellent threads under each forum into stickies. This way, less repeat posts by different people will appear ince the informaion they seek will be more readily at hand.
