I smell a motor sports for sale forum.

You guys smell that too?
If you don't do it, I will have Hoppe post 6 for sale threads a day in "classic Hoppe rebels against the moderator" fashion.

Nah, I'm ok. I sold my two motorsports things. :p
Although, I may put my turbo up for sale in this forum.....I tend to sell things quicker here. :lol:

Sounds like a decent idea. That way the people who are actually interested in performance don't have to sift through that monster FS forum.
| Sneuxstorm | 07-25-2006 10:34 AM |
+1 for the FS area here. it would make hunting down and selling off Motorsports specific stuff easier
...but how do you define motorsports specific items?

I also think a motorsports 'for sale' section makes some sense. I'd also support categorization of the current forum similar to the vendor forum as an alternative.

Sounds good.
would like to see/hear a good definition on how to separate FS motorsports stuff from other stuff.
Something like: "used previously only in AutoX, rallyX, or road racing"
(still a bit vague)
Who's this Tom one speaks of? :lol:

I just want to know what keeps 'trhoppe-wannabes' from putting their Veilside 'ubah-leet bumpah' in here that makes 'mad tyte drag, yo'. That, or how do you keep peopole from spamming their non-related items in here as well.
Sounds like someone should be made a moderator to delete all incorrect threads, or an Access/Oracle database be setup such that the items for sale are presorted.
How about a 'smarter' For Sale forums that are just easier to find things with input requirements to post (pics, information, seller location, dob, CC#.. etc)?
:runs away before he has to make an oracle database:

Some items I call motorsports:
Tire or car trailers.
Fuel jugs, camber and toe gauges, tire temp gauges, data acq systems, camera mounts, harnesses, harness bars, fire bottles, tow hooks or straps, aluminium jacks or jack stands
r-compound tires and track compound pads
custom built oilcovers or shocks
wheels that are forged, beaten/scractched (and sold for cheap) or stick out past the stock fenders.
bushings, after market seats or steering wheels, or anything else that will make driving the car uncomfortable.

dow,
Monster is a mod in here which if I don't miss my guess would make him a mod in the proposed "Motorsports ForSale" child forum. Which means he'd move the ricer junk to the main where it belongs.
While better categorization of the main forum is a great idea, just adding the Motorsports ForSale is simpler I think. :)

I have a ton of stuff to sell in a motorsports FS forum, and I haven't listed it yet because I don't want all the noob questions. I also don't want someone buying my unused Hawk HP+ brake pads and then asking me for a refund because they make noise. It's a different type of buyer, and we need a different forum for these parts.

See - that's where I'm starting to get confused. It's an awful lot of work for one person to determine what is and what isn't motorsports worthy. sure, there are some things that you could easily tell on - for example a sub enclosure for 8 12" subs for city block shaking bass, but what about other things that some feel are motorsports worthy, but some feel aren't.
We, and a few other vendors, try to stay away from non-performance oriented parts, but are they TRULY motorsports worthy? For example, and mods, this is just an example used for discussion - we make rear diff mount bushings. Personally I feel they are motorsports worthy, but I know some folks are going to say they aren't because they don't feel they are. The point I'm trying to make is that it's going to get very confusing and cumbersome for one guy to determine what is and isn't motorsports worthy.
As suggested above - perhaps a guideline list of things that are good, and another list of what is not. If someone is in doubt they could appeal to the admin to be allowed to post it?

So far the sticky has been awesome. I thought someone was gonna die when the Sparcos sold. :) I liked seeing stuff that's targeted for me rather than several searches in the FS forums with combinations of keywords that get me nowhere (people babbling and using "sti", "stock", and "wheel" in a reply or stuff that's been sold for a while).

Updated list:
-(Cars) Prepped cars, rollers, shells
-(Towing) Tire or car trailers, tool carriers, tow straps, beat up tow trucks
-(Track Supplies) Fuel jugs, camber and toe gauges, tire temp gauges, radar guns, aluminium jacks or jack stands, battery powered tools for the track, radios, tents, tarps, golf carts, beer.
-(Car consumables) ST worthy or r-compound tires, any track or autoX/street pads, brake fluid, tranny and diff oil, bearings, rotors.
-(Suspension) custom built or high end (we could literally specify the brands allowed) oilcovers or shocks, (all others can be found easily in the regular FS forum), front and rear control arms, camber plates.
- (Wheels) forged, beaten/scractched (and sold for cheap), stick out past the stock fenders, or custom sized for certain motorsports apps (rally, road race ect).
-(DriveTrain) Differentials, gear sets, trannies (shells or built ones), tranny coolers, no clutches or flywheels (easy to find in reg forum).
-(Engine) Oil coolers or sumps, fuel tanks or sumps, radiators.....
-(Chassis / car prep) sterring racks, bushings, after market seats or steering wheels, or anything else that will make driving the car uncomfortable [B](including any and all bushings which all motorsports folk love, especially the TiC bits)[/B], no bracing (such as STB, under braces, etc are easy to find in the reg forum), cages, data acq systems, camera mounts, harnesses, harness bars, fire bottles, tow hooks or straps, CB radios, used riced out graphics, the dirty whites, brake ducts, differential ducts.
-(Driver equipment) suits, shoes, helmets, gloves, XL size hats (for teh big heads ;) ), hans or equivalent, cool suits, beer, free money, rides, or sponsorships.
-(Spares) Maybe a single thread with random OEM spares (metal bits, hoses, sensors, special bolts, etc) that the cars needs to run, roll, brake, or turn. If your like me I keep some spares organized but for the most part they are all in a big pile in the garage, and I am used to sorting through them, so I won't mind reading through a huge single post to find CHEAP spares.
- (Sponsored Parts) No seriously, this could be usefull. For all the parts above or new motorsports driven parts that are coming out, many companies want a motorsports audiance to solicite potential sponsorships. Or at least we at 6gun will be looking to sponsor a few more 'privateer' level folks shortly for different parts.

DING DIN WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!!
(Exterior) I would think also with things like the brake cooling kit....Its gotta be functional!!!!
(Interior) Lap timers, Race type gauges/setups, cages, harness bars....Also cameras & camera mounting systems - I would love to find a great in car camera system like the SPI Video systems for sale on racerpartswholesale.com
They should kinda model it off sites like racerpartswholesale.com & raceshopper.com sales.
Love your breakdown.

-(Driver equipment) suits, shoes, helmets, gloves, XL size hats (for teh big heads ;) ), hans or equivalent, cool suits, beer, free money, rides, or sponsorships.
-(Spares) Maybe a single thread with random OEM spares (metal bits, hoses, sensors, special bolts, etc) that the cars needs to run, roll, brake, or turn. If your like me I keep some spares organized but for the most part they are all in a big pile in the garage, and I am used to sorting through them, so I won't mind reading through a huge single post to find CHEAP spares.
- (Sponsored Parts) No seriously, this could be usefull. For all the parts above or new motorsports driven parts that are coming out, many companies want a motorsports audiance to solicite potential sponsorships. Or at least we at 6gun will be looking to sponsor a few more 'privateer' level folks shortly for different parts.[/QUOTE]
DING DIN WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!!
(Exterior) I would think also with things like the brake cooling kit....Its gotta be functional!!!!
(Interior) Lap timers, Race type gauges/setups, cages, harness bars....Also cameras & camera mounting systems - I would love to find a great in car camera system like the SPI Video systems for sale on racerpartswholesale.com
They should kinda model it off sites like racerpartswholesale.com & raceshopper.com sales.
Love your breakdown.

Thats a pretty good comprehensive list.
I like the "anything that makes driving the car uncomfortable" part.

[QUOTE=Turn in Concepts]would vendors be allowed to post in said MS:FS area?[/QUOTE]
a seperate section at least would be nice. mixing it up with the regular members would be confusing and potentially troublesome.
