COTM
Hi, guys. i just wanted to talk to you all about the TGO Car of the Month program, which i'm sure most of you are already familiar with.
why am i writting a post about COTM here on the Power Adders Forum, you may ask. that is because i am hoping that you guys can help us out with COTM this month. this month's theme is track cars (1/4 mile and road course.) unfortunately, we only have a few more days left until i must start a voting thread, and there have been only two cars nominated (and i think they've both won COTM in the past.)
from what i've seen, some of the most hardcore racers on TGO reside primarilly here on the Power Adders Forum.
i can only spend so much time (as i have been doing unsuccessfully for the last hour and a half) searching these boards for good pictures of track-based cars of active TGO members. unfortunately, nobody here uses a vgarage or better yet an picture album in their profile, and i'm sorry, but i can't post up a close-up picture of your wastegate to represent your car for a COTM nomination. so, if any of you are familiar with any high quality cars that meet this month's criteria and you can post a good picture of it, please go ahead and nominate those guys in the COTM Nomination Thread in the Auto Detailing and Appearance Forum.
PS
i understand that for many of you, this is a technical sight and not a pageant. however, as COTM Editor, it is important to me that a many types of cars have a chance to be featured in the COTM Showcase - not just bone stock originals and LS swaps. and this is the month that i set aside to make sure that the hardcore race cars are represented.
Thanks for listening.

Re: COTM
If car of the month is focusing on this section of ours, then dyno videos & track videos along with pictures of the car need to be included. As was said above, anybody can essentially say that my car runs this or that and/or makes this or that, but I for one am all about factual proof, so lets make it legit. Put up or... well, you guys know the rest.
