October 2018 COTM **Nomination Thread**

This thread is for October 2018 COTM **Nominations**.

PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE COTM NOMINATION RULES BEFORE PROCEEDING TO NOMINATE A MEMBER’S RIDE FOR COTM.

This thread is a Nomination Thread to nominate cars that will compete for this month's Car of the Month honor. The 12 (or less) most popularly nominated cars will be compiled into a *Voting Thread* in a couple of weeks. If you do not nominate a member's car for COTM, you can still second or third (fourth, fifth, so on) someone else's nomination. Cars must have at least a second nomination in order to make the Voting Thread.
  • Do not nominate your own car. Your car must be nominated by another TGO Member.
  • Do not ask your wife, husband, friends, extended family, etc. to register as TGO Members for the purpose of nominating your car.
  • Do not nominate more than one car.
  • Do not use multiple member accounts to nominate your own car or to nominate multiple cars.
  • This is not a picture thread. Post only one (1) good photo of the car you wish to nominate. Do not use unrealistic, overly-processed images.
  • You must post a picture with your nomination. This must be a full-sized picture (or at the very least, a pic or thumb that enlarges into a full-sized picture when you click on it).
  • Correctly identify the user name of the member who you nominate. [This includes capitalization and spacing].
  • Correctly identify the year and model/trim of the car you nominate.
  • Do not nominate cars that are not in a high quality, finished state.
  • And if you are nominated, please DO go out and take an abundance of good quality photos of your ride (multiple angles, interior, engine) and make them publicly accessible (for example via a photo album in your public profile or some sort of hyperlink to your photo album).


    *****This Month's Criteria*****

    OPEN SEASON

    Any very high quality, finished, stock or modified 1982-92 Camaro or Firebird.

Re: October 2018 COTM **Nomination Thread**

I'll second Charlie6178. ......saw his wheel thread yesterday and thought that I'd nominate him. Seems I wasn't alone in that thinking. If you had told me zr1's with SLP decals and no door molding, I woulda passed. -but seeing that car, WOW! That's sharp!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, very nice car but had 3 runs at COTM last year. One of the objectives this year is to find new nominations.

Re: October 2018 COTM **Nomination Thread**

He's already been up twice this year. New cars, people! New cars!!

I don't have all this stuff memorized and it's sure as hell not my hobby to know COTM statistics. It is very easy to search these things out though. Just go to the Search this Forum drop-down and type in the person's user name followed by the word COTM. Some threads will pop up in the search. Take a quick peak at the voting threads to see if that person was in any of the voting.
