If someone posts their numbers, there will be technical questions about what they're running and a technical discussion is sure to follow.

Maybe, but not always. But the posting of ET/dyno numbers in itself is NOT a technical/performance post. If a person HAS a technical question like "why do my ETs suck" or "why do my dyno numbers read so low", then those questions SHOULD be posted in the tech area. A question about what a person is "running" isn't necessarily a tech question. Most folks post all that BS in their signature line anyway.

hmmmm.. isn't there the word performance?? If it would be just C3 Tech, I would agree, but it is Tech/Performance...
I shared details on my setup in the Tech/Performance section, but now I only get to post the results of that in the General section??

Olivier: It depends on HOW you post the info. If you have a thread already started about the tech details of your setup, then posting to that thread the results of that setup is certainly appropriate. But starting a new thread that ONLY posts your ET results with nothing else would just be a General post.

Tricky ain't it?

Well - my main reason that I want to post it there is because the people that I shared all the details about what I did to my car to make it go that fast.. It's like telling one group of people what you did and another group what the results were

It's always a risk to drive a old car that far... I'll trailer mine...
Even if I wouldn't have a Vette.... I'd still be at the CI...
