Why would you want Ixo and diecast models erased?

Because there hardly were any, and it looks stupid when every single page has an empty "model car" section.

For related system, i had erased all the old entries because it's not conform now. There is now 3 categories and for each you had to put like in the old system, the name of the car (not sedan or other, because if we put sedan... there isn't universality for lang).
Others Bodystyles for ex Audi A4 Avant (for Audi A4)
Others models for ex Audi S4 (for Audi A4)
Similar cars Peugeot 108 (for Toyota Aygo)

A million thank yous. The wait was worth it!

For example (I'll put up one description for every generation of a car) www.webcarstory.com/voiture.php?id=17630
The Chrysler Newport was a full-size car available in 2-door coupé, 4-door hardtop, and 4-door sedan bodystyles. The Chrysler New Yorker was the more expensive version of the Newport. It was built on the C-Platform, together with the Chrysler New Yorker, Dodge Monaco and Plymouth Fury and Gran Fury. In 1976, the Chrysler Newport was facelifted and received the front and rear ends of the New Yorker, which in turn got the front and rear ends of the discontinued Imperial.

A reflexion had to be done. I don't want a copy of wikipedia.

While we were talking about changes, maybe a small box in which you can input some text would be nice. You could tell a bit about the car, for example: its success, its failure, how it was something completely different, (for race cars without race results:) what the car achieved and what it was made for, etc.
Right now, I sometimes use the comment section for something like that, but the comment section is actually for comments about the car and often (look at this page for example) gets cluttered with high amounts of comments.
Is it possible to implement a text box?

Regional always not very interesting. Except for a real specialist (who will not visit webcarstory for this type of results in rally, but specific website) it's not interesting. I'm a fan of Rally and Rally Raid but i never search for Regional championship in France (boring), it's better the France rally championships (for my country for example) and sometimes i will the both championships (asphalt and dirt). For example i will not be interesting in regional championship in russia or germany or other country, but national yes. And i don't think that championship like Saxo cup in spain or others like that is insteresting. Spain rally championship yes.
For french cup, you are wrong, it's just a lot of races with points. It's the race that arent in the national championship but not really interesting.

When i said that for midifications, i just thought to ramzee who told me a lot of times if we could have more cars (for dakar in his example).

Yes. I actually I think that you should give the ability to add more options. For example: Regional, One Make....
I actually want to add the One Make Races. I added once (Portugal Saxo Cup, Spain Saxo Cup....) but all they got denied.

For example:
ewrc-results.com/season.php?s=2001&nat=8 (Here has Spain Renault Clio Cup, Citroen Saxo Cup, Desafío Peugeot known as Challenge Peugeot, Ibiza Cup Tarmac & Gravel, Galicia...)
ewrc-results.com/season.php?s=2013&sct=45&nat=6&t=France-Cup (Is a French cup but it's actually divided by regions if not mistaken).

If it can't be done now, then it can be done later...

yes it's that. Before that the results section on the car page is not very used (like the section for model cars now). So now it's automatic. The only problem that i see with that, it's that closed results for cars that don't do good results (doesnt' appear in championship).
Example (with the Dakar of this days): the Fiat Pandakar hadn't results (if it's the case i think we could see that no one after 4 participations had finished the race). It's the only problem that i see. But perhaps a reflexion to do about that...

i dont understand why you said drivers and races.

Because we could add the races on racing cars BEFORE THE CHAMPIONSHIP SECTION appeared. We had to put the round, the driver, the co-driver, the team and the result. (If driver was retired, it said "Retirement"). When the championship section appeared, the RACE RESULTS section disappeared.

i dont understand

The place where there is now "related with". I think the other version of a car (high performance, bodykit, different front, etc.) can stay there as it will not take up anymore space than it does now.
In that case, maybe the other bodystyles (sedan, wagon, etc.) and same cars from different makes (Opel Astra and Vauxhall Astra for example) can go in a different column, like in the image I posted. Because if we put all these things in the "related with", it will be messy and difficult to understand for people.
The last thing I said was because you said my idea was too big for this place. I wanted to ask you if the pages as they are now are as big as they can go, or can they become even bigger?
If anything is unclear, please tell me.

It can be quite compact. For example, the bodystyles can be listed as "sedan, wagon, hatchback, etc." instead of long names. The cars from different brands are ofcourse full name, and other versions/models can just be short, like "Z24, Berlinetta, Custom Coupé".

That's what I meant, we could place it above or underneath the pictures and engines. It won't be that long, there are nearly never more than 5 bodystyles for 1 car I think.

Hi Rinspeed. I had an idea for linking cars better, and I wondered what you thought about it, and if it is actually possible to do.
If it is possible, it would mean that I could link enormous groups of cars, which would make it easier to navigate around the site.
Here is a (bad) image of my idea:

I'm not sure if it is actually possible to add stuff to the side of the pictures, but it could be put above the pictures or underneath the pictures for all I care.
If it's not possible to do this, could we maybe discuss a different way to link more cars? Because I think if I link all the cars I want in the "related with" column, it will be really confusing for people.
