:OFFICIAL: Old-Timers contest.

This contest is for anyone 20 years of age or older, a non-teen contest. By non teen, I mean it as someone who does not have ''teen" at the end of their age.

Here are rules and regulations.


1- Must be 20+ to enter.
2- Can enter one model, post as many pics as you want, but pick one picture you like the best to enter.
3- Models must not be prebuilt. You must choose a kit to build for this contest. 2 months is alot of time to buy one and make it.
4- When entering your model car, you must do these following things.
a) Take progress pictures of your model car with a news paper beside it signifying the date - this is done to prove that you are in fact, building a kit at that exact moment, and it's not a build up of a previous kit.
b) Ensure you have progress pictures. I expect at least 1 progress report per week, meaning you should have 6 or more progress reports to send.
5- When the due date is up for turning in your model, you must email me one picture that you find the best to judge your model by. If you want you can make a collage if you want. I do not care what size you send me the pictures, but they will be re-sized to 800x600.
6- There are no prizes as of yet, I don't know if anybody will want to donate something as a prize? Totally up to the people.

Voting.

Voting shall go as follows.
There will be 4 categories to enter your model in, and 5 places to finish in.
Category 1 - Street Cars; This implies to street legal models, cars that you could drive in real life, legally on the street.
Category 2 - Tuner/Track cars; This means that if you enter a car that is built to race the drag strip it will be entered into this category.
Category 3 - Rally Cars; any car that is entered which is destined to be a rally car, will be placed into this category for judging.
Category 4 - Race cars; F1, Indy, Nascar. Any entry that is sent that is for road/oval track racing, will be placed into this category.

Now, that leaves 4 spots for finishing. We have one left. Each winner of each category will face off with eachother to win Grand 1st place. i.e: The Big Mama Cahuna Winner.

Voting for the 4 categories will go for 2 weeks, the 4 finalists from the 4 categories will then be placed up for the Finals against one another, and voting for that will take one week to go out.

Please send progress reports to david@photo-chop.com .

voting will be done by Private messages. It will be posted AF-Wide, meaning every forum should be able to see the thread. In order to vote, you must be registered one week before the first round of voting occurs, this is to ensure nobody can create false/fake accounts and vote for their model of choice more than once - again, just another thing to keep this contest fair.

Any feedback, suggestions or complaints can be posted in this thread. I hope nobody minds the rules, and that we get alot of people entering! Keep in mind, this contest is automotive forums wide, meaning anybody can enter! As long as you are 20 years of age, or older.

Have fun and and I look forward to seeing your entries!
