Car of the month?
Do you guys want a monthly "car of the month" thread/poll? A lot of other local forums have them so I figure maybe we should give it a shot too. If you want to nominate yourself for Sept '08 COTM please email me your car info (Mitsubishi only), favorite picture, and a list of your mods to HughesCH@gmail.com and I'll get it setup!

Re: Car of the month?
I'd like to implement a few rules...
- No more than 3 pictures of your car, at least 800x600 but not larger than 1024x768
- Post full specs (engine, suspension, exterior, interior, etc.)
- We may limit the entries each month based on overall look, build and cleanliness
We'll leave entries open for a week or two then let people vote toward the end of the month.

Re: Car of the month?
I like the idea but what ive seen on other sites is that it does become a pain in the ass doing it every month. I think it would be a lot better and easier on every one to do it every other month and call it "Member choice" or something

You should make it that you have to get nominated not nominate yourself.

Works for me; however you guys want to do it.
As for the admins taking part, maybe one month we'll do an "admin only" or something along those lines.

Re: Car of the month?
dont make it so someone has to nominate you. That makes it near impossible for the more obscure member s to get to play

Re: Car of the month?
How about people can nominate themselves or others! Get those emails sent to me and I'll get it going. Lets put a cap of 5 cars/month per poll.
