The Late Model forums will be featured for a while and once the word gets out, we'll put all forums in order from oldest to newest.

For more information on why all the changes, read:

This is really annoying. Reorganizing the forums just to get the late model stuff to the top is going to drive the older people away or at least make them cranky. Sure, you can minimize the late model stuff and ignore it (I did) but I see zero reason to make the G8 & LSx engine cars the focus of the forums.

I don't have any interest in the late model cars and forcing it down everyone's throat is not going to change my mind.

You guys beat me to it, I headed straight to the Lobby to post a "what the...?"
After reading the link I see why, I'm not a fan of mixing the classic stuff with the late models, but just like the HPP magazine..I'll just read what interests me and support it. Ignore the rest.

Ya but reading HHP takes like 15 min. Too much LS crap. Worse yet is The Legand, what a waste of paper! This forum is by far the best thing we have! Just hate to see the late model stuff even if it is for a short while. Just waters it down like the previously mentioned media's.

Roll with it Chris.

I minimized the forums I don't have an interest in and off we go.

Thanks for giving us a water cooler to hang out by.

I can't get the minimize to stay that way, have to click them on each vist, sometimes it stays, sometimes it doesn't ??? For sure I'll be logging on a lot less, too much BS to weed through. Too many individual threads that could overlap.

Forums should follow the KISS effect.

I find it annoying also, but I don't pay for it.

Maybe we should get a Camero section, very similar to the Firebird. How about letting all A-bodys in with the Tempest/LeMan's they share a lot of parts.
I relize we don't own this site but this is the lobby, our water cooler as David has said. I can at least voice my opinion.

If you think having to scroll down a little to find the older stuff is a major deal....then you have real problems. These are all just cars in the end. Where else you going to go to get access to all of this (for free)...the HAMB? Good luck with that! This site is still amazing to me and I'm not really even a "player".

PONTIAC! Does that mean nothing to you? Maybe all cars are the same to you, not me. I am a PONTIAC guy! F the corporate nonsense!

I like the new organization. Since my fingers work just fine I can easily scroll down to the forum of my interest.

It's called "Feedback" and I'm sure PY likes getting it, good and bad.

If people really stopped using this site (or any site for that matter) because someone moved some stuff around, the see ya later.

If it were up to me, I'd rearrange everything in non year/ Alphabet order, just to see people squirm
