Hey there, I don't use this forum a lot but I just recently found the build forum and was trying to search it so I did not have to look at all 500 pages or however many there are. But when I do a search, i just get some links to rides and no actual links to articles. So can I search one particular forum or is the search function for the whole website?
Thanks,Dennis

I always search through google. Enter it as "search term" site:grassrootsmotorsports.com

What he said^^^^^
The GRM search's dysfunctionality is a well-known issue. Fortunately, adding that bit EvanB mentioned to your Google search to confine results to this site works quite well.
Yes, to clarify, lets say you want to know about Fiero GT's. Go over to google and in goggle's search box type:
site:grassrootsmotorsports.com fiero gt
You will then get results about fiero gt's from the grassroots website (and forum.)
When you want to know about something else, just change the ending. For Saab 95's you would search:
site:grassrootsmotorsports.com saab 95
This method works very well for me.
Unfortunately, yes, this is currently the best workaround. We're working on improving the search feature, but right now taking care of tweaks after the redesign is the priority.

Hey thank you all for the info. I will try it out. Sounds like the best way to do it now.
