Default what about a new area for N/A engines

To the powers that be,

We have a nitrous, manual trans, supercharger/turbo.. what about a section just for the naturally aspirated crowd?

Not sure if there is whole lot of us running naturally aspirated, just thought I would check

I think it would be nice as well for NA specific questions although the Mods may not want even another section to have to watch!

it would be great but it would just end up being like the internal sections since most people dont go with high compression NA engines.

I will be talking this over as I would also be a fan of the section since I have worked with Erik Koenig and many others on quite a few N/A motors.

If anything most HIGH end N/A questions can go in Advanced Tech, but I will see where we can get with it. (Definitely would be dealing with interest groups with the section. If there is enough people into it, it may become a reality.)

I still need to get my car done too. I have the c/m cage in my car, but the dumbass I got the car from mig welded the halo and front bars and tig welded the rest. I need to cut it out and replace it. I am just going to 8.50 cert it, I have no intentions of going faster than that with this car anytime soon

Cool, can't ask for more than that. They can't say yes or no unless we ask.
