...Just food for thought Tim
not a fan of this....

I feel like if you end up with a 65 vs cobra vs 08 GT/CS, it will come down to picking the one you drive.

at least before the cars were on generally equal footing- verts against others, foxes against foxes. not a fox vs cobra vs 69mach 1

I think we should just do the mod approved picks. I don't think having 1 pick from each generation will work long. However if they feel that they should do that then they can.

Yup, just go back to how it was, the voting was always close. Never a landslide

You know what is so funny about you posting that is your the reason I stopped coming into ROTM setion. If I remember right your yellow car would get nominated for the 5.0 and SN95 months. Not saying your car wasn't deserving it just got a little old with your car always getting nominated. I'm not trying to be a jerk just thought it was ironic

I think it's been posted already, but I think each month should have different categories ie: best S197 GT, best Fox, best FI, etc, etc. And the winner is ineligible for nomination for let's say 3-4 months. That way, it gives more members an opportunity for nomination.

i wouldnt say 'best', since your opinion of the best isnt the same as the enxt guys. white makes this a a vote, not bloodline. thats why we arent british!

LOL....no what I meant was having categories titled as such. Of course having like 4 or 5 nominations each month that the members vote from. But like I said before, this way, more members are nominated/winning based on different factors (V6, stock, FI, you get the idea).

just bustin your *****!


one other idea is instead of just doing like the nomination, 2nd, and your in is that Ive had everyone say who they want in for 7 days. at the end, the 5 peoplewith the most nominations gets in- then its not jsut the first 5 with 2 people wanting them.
