I've been gathering up a list of resources for minifig-drivable 8 wide automobiles (MOCs, official TLG sets, design advice, etc.), and I'm not sure where to post the consolidated info: Here (the Town subforum) or in the Action Themes subforum? Where would the info be most useful and/or least obtrusive?

The MOCs seem to be split between the two subforums. I've been putting my own 8 wide automobile MOCs in Action Themes, and there are one or two other similar MOCs there, but most/all of the rest are in Town.

Most of TLG's 8 wide car designs end up in Action Themes, because most have been part of themes like World Racers, Speed Racer, and so on. (But not all. Creator has some relevant sets.)

Certainly the resources are mostly generic, in the sense that the design info isn't inherently Action-ish. However I'm also aware that many Town fans aren't thrilled about the scale of 8 wide automobiles, and so I worry about adding unwanted noise to this subforum.

Opinions? Objections to posting the list in the Town subforum?

Opinions? Objections to posting the list in the Town subforum?

Every Town need some vehicles. Thus a car MOC that is designed to be in a town could be posted in the "LEGO Town"-subforum.

If the car is more specific for a theme like the Racing theme, then post it in the "Other LEGO Themes"-subforum. Is it a larger Technic based car, then it should go into the "LEGO Technic, Mindstorms & Model Team"-subforum.

But you will always find a gray area, like a 8 wide street-racing car built with some technic parts or functions, where should it go? I say put it where you see it fit best.

Just my opinion...
