What so we can spend 50% of the time shifting between forums and up the chance to miss important threads 200%. That's a horrible idea.
okay so if you drop a ladder on your hood while installing a performance cam in your otherwise NCRS car do you post on;
General Discussion - Anything goes, OT to Dropped the ladder on my car....
Repairs/Restoration - NCRS and How to's..
Custom/Performance - Bad Ash engines, Customs, Conversion, Aftermarket...
That in itself is a reason not to change, misplaced threads, grey areas, just KISS.

I belong to an f-body forum that has way more sub forums but I only go to one and pretty much skip the rest. That is what will happen here and instead off getting more responses you will get less.
JMHO.

I really enjoy seeing 10 post per day regarding Torque Thrust wheels or Flow Master mufflers. How about a sub-forum just for wheels and mufflers. That would significantly reduce the number of post.
Seriously, I visit other forums and you do end up with confusion about where to post a topic. You end up having to read all the post in all the sub forums to make sure you don't miss anything which defeats the purpose of the sub forums.

I don't see any reason to split the C3 forum. There are fewer and fewer C3s around. Why split the furum up. I don't care about hearer, sidepipes or wheel posts and I pass them by. But I have learned a lot from the questions and answers posed about many other topics. If you aren't interested in a topic...pass it it. That's what I do.

Budman, I don't mind the question being asked again (and again) at all. It makes sense to periodically review the issue of splitting the C3 forum as things change. However, right now I think is a really bad time to split the C3 forum, for several reasons... but here is just one: If the C3 forum subsequently shrivels up and dies, you won't know if it was caused by the new forum software or the C3 forum split. So, let's get used to the new software and ask the question again in a month and **** off the old farts all over again!

Someone can always ttt their post. I can see a lot of posts sitting around with no replies if the C3 forum got split up. I think it is definitely just fine the way it is.

It's funny how it's always the same guys that reply to this thread. 
Let the new guys jump in. I know I bring it up once a year, but that's about 100 times less than "my car is running at 210 degrees what do I do?". I just though it looks like we had a lot of new members and they should be a good source of opinion. I'm a customizer, so I'm always going to look for a better way or the different look. 
I value everyones opinion and hopefully one day we try to expand to a larger format.
Other discussion forum ideas:
C-3 Misfits - Topics that **** off Merlin/Are anything the 427 guy said. I forgot his id.
C-3 How to be banned - Posting pics of naked girlfriend sleeping without a vette in the picture.
C-3 Bubba - What size stick will hold up my hood.
C-3 Lonely and bought a vette to meet chicks - Nevermind we have a C-5 section. Just kidding I'd own a C-5 in a heartbeat if I could afford it.
The list goes on.......
I'm off for the weekend. Have a good time.

I think that splitting C3 will make me read less posts.
I usually sign in - scroll down - read what I like.
Sometimes, posts scroll off due to the day/time they are posted.
Friday night is usually a bad time - many folks don't sign in over the weekends.

Leave it the way it is. The reason I don't go to the other forum as much as this one is because they split their C3 section. If you don't like the subject move on. I like reading, so I don't mind once in a while reading that Paul Farted or that Cali likes pancakes on his bunnies it makes my day a better day. I love it the way it is. (JMHO Biatch)

the big problem is that people never use the search button, before you ask a question search for it!! if you can't find what you need then post. And post the OT threats in OT, that's why we have that section...
If people started doing that, C3 would be fine like it was a year or two ago, before all the newbs started F'ing it up.
