June 2020 COTM **Self-Nomination Thread** - Pro Touring
This is a Nomination Thread for cars that will compete for this month's Car of the Month honor. The most popularly nominated cars will be compiled into a Voting Thread within a couple weeks.
*** This month's category ***
Pro Touring Cars equally comfortable on the street, road course, and drag strip
Please post just 1 photo for your nomination. You can nominate yourself or somebody else. It takes two nominations to make it to the voting round.

I am not sure if this is against the rules, or if QwkTrip didn't want to be nominated, but I know his car is badass and I think it would fall into the pro-touring category, right? So, if he is ok with it, I would like to nominate him and his awesome 89 Firebird. if he is not ok with it, I will retract my comment and that will be that.

Super cool of you!
Yep, I can be nominated. And the car is different than last time. But I've been blabbing my mouth about how it's not cool when past winners try to repeat so I better "walk the talk" and pass for now.
Here's an all motor 150 mph dyno pull just to keep the thread fun though!
Re: June 2020 COTM **Self-Nomination Thread** - Pro Touring
whew! that car is rippppping!!
ok, no worries. figured I would try at least. the other car I was thinking of nominating was Bad'n'Blacks car. but since he was a past car-of-the-month winner and even car-of-the-year winner, I think I will refrain!... also, I know his car had some major engine issues so I don't think its up and running yet.
Anyways, well keep us up to speed as to what the next part of the process is. !

And I hope those folks aren't sitting on their thumbs waiting for a nomination though. If you fit the theme this month then just come right in and nominate yourself if you want! I literally can't make this any easier!

LOVIN THIS! All awesome cars so far. This is going to be a very difficult month of voting. Really looking forward to all the write ups, details and specs
Re: June 2020 COTM **Self-Nomination Thread** - Pro Touring
Well it's pretty much bone stock, lowered 1.5" I bought it with 64,000 miles. It has a tpi 305 and a 5 speed. Only had it 3 months. Currently I'm building a protour 1969 camaro and driving this, then they will change spots.
Re: June 2020 COTM **Self-Nomination Thread** - Pro Touring
Sounds like a real nice car. Welcome to the forum by the way!
How about we do this: Next month will be an open season category where any nice car can be nominated. Go ahead and post up in the "Bait Thread" at the link below. There's a real good chance somebody will nominate you soon. (Normally you have to wait until somebody else nominates you. This month is a bit unusual to help generate the excitement.)
Maybe even start a thread introducing yourself and your car to the broader community. It's a great way for a new member to get noticed and start to integrate and make friends.
As far as voting this month, there is a time delay between when you join and when you can start voting. Just a heads up that you might find yourself locked out of voting this month but just hang in there it will open up. These things are controlled by site administration and we (including me) have no control over it. Thanks for checking in!

Thank you dagwood
Can I second my own car? Feels weird haha. I was hesitant to nominate myself since I'm in the middle of a 'refresh', although still on schedule to be done by the end of the month.
Re: June 2020 COTM **Self-Nomination Thread** - Pro Touring
Apparently you guys weren't done nominating yet and having trouble finding a Pontiac. I can help with that. I nominate @Beater79TA . Do I hear a second?
