Request for 'work in progres' thread

I'm on a handful of automotive forums, and some of them have a 'work in progress' section. I find these to be the most interesting threads on the entire forum normally. In the forum you post a thread dedicated just to your car and you post what you go through, what your thinking of, and what you do to your car. So, it effectivly becomes a sort of history of the modifications for your car. Since many people keep these threads its easy to go back and see what worked and didn't for someone, and what they all went through. So, I'm just throwing it out there. I love the idea and thought I'd see what other people here think.

Daox -

I second this motion. You can do this by just opening up a thread like "Peakster's Geo Thread", but I think a dedicated section for this stuff would be better.
