September 2018 COTM **Nomination Thread**

This thread is for September 2018 COTM **Nominations** PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE COTM NOMINATION RULES BEFORE PROCEEDING TO NOMINATE A MEMBER’S RIDE FOR COTM.
REMEMBER, WE MUST PROTECT THE INTEGRITY OF THE CONTEST SO THAT THE MOST DESERVING MEMBER WINS.

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: September 2018 COTM **Nomination Thread**


I'd like to nominate heat seeker and his KILLER 1989 Formula. He was in the running last month and I feel like he needs to be here again. He has built the car himself over 20 years, it has a stealth ram 383 stroker, and it can run 10 second quarter mile times. The car is awesome.

So we can nominate previous nominations that didn't win? If so I got a good one in mind.

dmccain and his 89 trans am clone. This car gleams on every angle and he is a stand up guy to boot. Awesome looking at his albums and seeing his kids helping him with the gorgeous red paint.
