Welp, this lemmy thing seems to be taking off a bit, so I wanted to open up a discussion on where you all think the community should go. I personally enjoy the freeform discussion / catch-all nature of the community for any and all car enthusiast-related things. Comms for specific models, subtypes of vehicle, etc can be their own thing alongside c/cars.

One idea I had was to have some theme days to drive posting & keep things consistent in the future. Some potential theme days:

  • Motor Mondays (post your engine bay/other performance mods)

  • Track Tuesdays (post photos of your car at the track)

  • Wheel Wednesdays (post your custom wheels)

If you have any other ideas/suggestions, shout 'em out in the comments. I hope this community will continue to grow as it has been over the last couple of weeks! As it continues to grow, I'll be putting out a call for another mod or two to help with keeping the sub a welcoming/inclusive place for anyone who likes cars, so stay tuned for that too!

Question: is it acceptable for owners of EV’s to post pictures of their trunk on Motor Mondays, but only so long as they make a reference to their car having a V0?

We'd need to see pictures of the electric motor(s)

How about we meet in the middle and photoshop in pictures of hampsters running in wheels?

[–] OopsOverbombing 3 points 1 year ago

I find this to be a suitable compromise. XD

Pictures of their battery cell or nothing

Instructions unclear. Will fill entire car with Duracells and then take picture

Sorry but no. You have to show your actual motors. So if you have to remove wheels, panels, etc to get to then, so be it.

I noticed you didn’t say it has to be the main propulsive motors. So can I do things like seat motors, AC motor, and hyperspace drive?

[–] inky 1 points 1 year ago

They're motors from cars, so I don't think I can deny your right to post them.
