Perhaps we could have a new thread; where lowering, tire stretch, camber and poke are discussed in a serious manner, laying out the technical and legal implications? To educate those who like the look but don't understand the sacrifices involved. Without making fun of any particular car...
Nah, bad idea. It'd just get boring.
There already are a couple of hundred threads just like those for anybody that takes a few minutes to look. They generally stay untouched and on track as they are in the tech sections.
They can also be as confusing as hell because you can have many self proclaimed experts that will all tell you that they are right and everybody else is wrong!
Yes, it would be great to help the 16 year olds but they should at the very least seek that help in the proper area.
When they come in the general section and say "I want 600 hp for $500 and don't even own a screwdriver" and then argue every single thing anybody says to them then we are wasting our breath trying to teach them anything.
