**MAY 2014** COTM NOMINATIONS
**************MAY 2014 COTM NOMINATIONS**************
This thread is a Nomination thread to narrow down the top 10 (or less) Third Gens on TGO that meet this month's criteria. This is not a picture thread. POST ONE GOOD PHOTO of THE ONE CAR that you wish to nominate. Others can second or third, and so on, your nomination. You cannot nominate your own car. A car must at least receive a "second" nomination to be included in the voting process.
The 10 or less most popularly nominated cars will be compiled into a *voting thread* in a couple weeks.
I think most of us already know how this works.
*****This Month's Criteria*****
Sleepers. in other words, relatively Stock in Appearance, but not Stock in performance. so, no "Dead Giveaways." Dead Giveaways include slammed suspension, 18+ inch wheels, 4+ inch cowel hoods, etc. the overt race cars will have their chance to be showcased in future COTMs.
what is under the stock appearing hood is no one's business - as long as it isn't bone-stock. LS, LT, TPI, Big Block, Turbo 6,8, Blown this or that. it just has to be nice; it has to be clean, and able to proudly represent TGO.

Re: **MAY 2014** COTM NOMINATIONS
I would like to nominate Dmans85. His 85 Z28 packs an LS1/T56 underneath that beautiful stock exterior.
Edit - Since I can only post one photo, I removed the other two.
