sjordan2 Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 (edited) The subject says it all. Please answer both sides. What categories do you follow on this forum? What types of cars interest you or are not of interest to you? I don't recall this question or a poll on this subject before. Muscle cars? Vintage classics? Old or new stocki? Drag? Funny cars? NASCAR? etc. Edited April 27, 2014 by sjordan2
Harry P. Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Follow closely: Big Boyz, Under Glass (cars), All the Rest. Ignore completely: NASCAR, Drag The rest, hit and miss. Mostly miss, only enough to "patrol" the neighborhood every now and then....
Ace-Garageguy Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I scan through all the model headings, probably about once a month, just to see what's new. I've seen some spectacularly inspiring work in genres that I don't usually build, and have picked up a fair number of techniques too. I've even developed an appreciation for short-track dirt and modified racing in 1:1 from seeing some of the fine work displayed in the NASCAR section.
Dr. Cranky Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I look at any model that is well and clean built and where I think the builder has had quite a bit of fun thinking outside the box!
Rob Hall Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Since I usually view by 'View New Content' I don't pay a lot of attention to the categories...but I do check out Car Kit Review, Truck Kit Review, and General sections often..
customsrus Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I follow the car classes and the Pickup, Vans, Light Commercial , both On the workbench and Under Glass. I enjoy the custom build more than the stock ones. The ones I look at the least would be anything to do with racing and/or big rigs. I don't totally ignore these but they are what I look at the least. And like Harry the rest is hit and miss to me.
ERIK88 Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I mainly have interest in muscle cars from 60 70 80 90s . Some rat rods and trucks from the 50 60 70s. I ignore mascars and dragsters as well as modern vehicles.

Harry P. Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Harry says that because that's what Gregg wants and your opinion doesn't matter. Huh?
customsrus Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Harry says that because that's what Gregg wants and your opinion doesn't matter. who's opinion doesn't matter?
mikevillena Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I am interested in all of them. Folks are kind enough to share their builds and the least I can do is to read. Who knows, might actually learn something new.
sjordan2 Posted April 27, 2014 Author Posted April 27, 2014 who's opinion doesn't matter? Greg has dictated that NASCAR (as opposed to any other racing subjects) and a couple of others are here to stay. In any case, I neglected to list my own interests.For my own personal tastes, l only follow: General On the Workbench Under Glass Car Kit News and Reviews Diecast and Resincast Big Boyz How-Tos Auto ID, etc. For some reason, the trucks section is even larger than the general car section. Go figure.
Rob Hall Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 (edited) Greg has dictated that NASCAR (as opposed to any other racing subjects) and a couple of others are here to stay. Which is quite absurd--I see the need for NASCAR and Drag categories, but there also needs to be a general racing section, or an Open Wheel Section, etc. Edited April 27, 2014 by Rob Hall

I think having a separate NASCAR and Drag section makes no sense.

charlie8575 Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I do general, WIP, under glass, new kits, Q&A/Tips, dios, off-topic and go through the trucks every so often. Charlie Larkin
Daddyfink Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I try to go through them all and I ignore Harry P.! But just to rub it in, Mainly Drag and some NASCAR! I appreciate all model building, even the subjects I don't really care for. It keeps the hobby going.
Guest Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 On the bench, Under glass, General, kit reviews, trading post, wanted, trucks on the bench, trucks under glass, games, off topic.
Bill J Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I always check the General, On the Workbench, Under Glass, Car Kit News and Reviews, Car Resin and Aftermarket forums. I check for anything interesting in Drag and NASCAR. I also read Model Building Questions and Answers. Sometimes I check the Diorama section and Tips and Tricks. I ignore all the rest, not building and trucks/commercial, or large scale stuff.
BubbaBrown Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I like 60's drag cars, showroom stocks. I avoid nascar,todays top fuel, funny cars, pro stocks,formula's, indy's and all foreign cars. I don't do big scale , but I don't have room, nothing against them. I check resins, new stuff even trucks mostly all over this site. But Im a gray beard.
Eshaver Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I'll stick with ignore : Big Boyz nascar Some work in progress trades Hey, I have my own agendas ....................

High octane Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 That's "classified info" Sgt. Friday and I can't answer questions like that in an "ongoing investigation."
W-409 Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 I try to read everything, but that doesn't always happen. Actually I seem to ignore the Trades and Wanted sections pretty often, but that's probably because I live here in Finland and trading gets way more complicated if I step in the game as we need to send stuff across the Ocean. I follow Drag Racing Models, NASCARS and Car Kit Reviews-sections almost daily on here. They are my favorite categories, especially the Drag Racing Models. What I don't follow that much is All The Rest, Diecast Models and Trucks-sections. Well, on those I visit in Trucks the most, but especially All The Rest and Diecasts are something I click on very rarely. However, this doesn't mean I wouldn't read the threads, because actually I do. Not just that often. All other categories are being followed a couple of times in a week, depending on the amount of spare time I have. But especially On The Workbench and Under Glass categories are something I try to read through a couple of times in a week, others can be like once a week, too.
cobraman Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 I look around quite a bit but seldom look in the Nascar section.
