Re: Ride of the Month (ROTM)

Enter as often as you like!  No purchase necessary!

Nope, next month I'm in, this month i'll be as usual over the top, as a military vet to me steve's car is like a fallen brethren.

Voting for October ROTM has been postponed.

Seems like nobody wants to play with me this month... Sorry for paralyzing the submissions. Dave, if you want, you can remove my car and let other people compete, no problem.

I think Steve's car should win by default!  It is a great tribute to it. 

To me this ROTM is mostly about getting to know our friends cars.  There are many great cars, and we need to feature all of them over many months.

Nice thought!

Don't you dare pull out!

Steve is the OCTOBER Ride of the Month!!!  ( in my unofficial capacity...)  I crown him the winner!!!!!

Steve:
Congrads on not pulling out & to Dave for making an exception with Steve's old SHO. It was a one of a kind & deserved recognition from the whole group. & looks like that '13 of his is really coming on.

Thanks everyone!
It is a bit akward to get the ROTM when no one else participated.
When I saw that nobody had submitted their ride for October ROTM, I had the idea to submit my 2010. It was not mentioned that it couldn't be submitted if I no longer had it. But with all the investments and with all the joys that the car brought me, I thought it diserved a spot.
I asked Dave if I could submit it and he replied that not only it would be allowed but told me I had to.
So, in non ways I wanted to impose and I am very sorry if some were a bit frustrated with my participation.
That said, imo no big deal, that "contest" is ultimately a way to share our ride with other enthousiasts and I wanted other members to get to know a unique SHO that I had the pleasure to be the owner for a couple years. It was a beast and I still miss it.
Thanks for all the good words and comments that were given, I appreciate it...
Next step, continue with my 2013 and submit it for
ROTM in the near future... Perhaps as the first SHO in the 11's?
Hehehe!
Thanks again and please submit your rides for ROTM this month.
Cheers!
Steve

Thanks Steve.  It was a fine car and I am glad we all got to get a good look at it.  Good luck on getting the new ride into the 11's.  We will be excited to see you do it! 

 

[Larrylu]

Congrats Steve. It's a worthy winner for sure. Some great looking winners we are racking up. They'd make some really nice months in a SHO/ECOBoost calendar.

When does Novembers submission start?

 

[DJE624]

Submissions for November will start October 15th.  Voting will start about a week after that.  There is going to be a rule change too!  Voting for your own ride will be acceptable!

 

[Tractorak]

Cool Thanks

 

[DJE624]

A special  :thankyou: goes out to all the members who entered our Ride of the Month competitions this year!

3 days left for Dec ROTM and I am trailing behind BIGMAC  ...... No sour grapes.......
BUT with only 20  total votes cast and over 600 members  ???

 

[DJE624]

Yeah!  Let's get some votes going!  Why wouldn't you want to vote?

 

[SHOdded]

Maybe we need to "spam" all our members just once!

 

[BiGMaC]

Maybe we need to "spam" all our members just once!

Maybe so.... due to holiday distractions.  Maybe wait till tomorrow?  There should be more that 20 votes with 50-60 members online at a time all week (until today)
