mutiple categories FTW!!

how about the dirtiest car???

or how about closest to a Subie?

my new ride as of next friday!



by BAM it will be flat black, caged, racing seats, harnesses and stereo. by next year.....
Subie motor of some sort...

 

Getting nervous with the competition heating up eh?!??!

 

hahah well i mean im pretty sure there were many categories before this BAM meet at the years before. i mean 1 trophy for over 300+ cars? i dont mind i dont think im going to win anyways but it would be more interesting.

 

There aren't enough cars or prizes to constitute that many categories. Perhaps 2 categories, maybe 3 MAX. There just aren't enough cars or prizes, otherwise everyone would win.

1. Best overall

2. Best Sedan

3. Best wagon/hatch

Even then, the same person can win both times, and I'd like to even it out a bit more... So it'd have to be something like:

1. Best overall

2. Cleanest ride

Maybe one other one, but it wouldn't be model specific, that being too specific. Its much easier to have one or two categories for the sake of voting and such. Like I said, I can only provide so many prizes for that category. Rest assured that they will be nice prizes.

I'm going on past experience, but I<3Subie is in charge, so I'll let him decide because I gave him the responsibility to make it happen. Just keep my words in mind.

 

we should have a best coupe

 

heres mine.

chase, post a list of mods too with it

 

I put my 2 dollars in on this and I<3 knows about it too.

Prizes should be easy to get as vendors can write them off and vendors always have isht around that won't sell... haaaa. Not to mention labor.

Voting and how many divisions is easy.

I will say this... Cleanest ride is kind of.... well... not necessary. The fact that you're winning best overall says you're the cleanest and clean is too open for interpretations. I've been involved in more than a few of these things over the years.

If you want 2. Then do best sedan and best wagon as technically all non impreza cars are not "truly" baIc cars.

Otherwise I'd say take a look at my suggestions earlier. They make sense.

And all this submitting stuff is nonsense. You show up and you're eligible. Then you have the selected judges walk around and make their picks. Otherwise you're gonna need select parking and that is gonna narrow it down to the cars that are nominated and owners than follow through on communications and you'll end up eliminating quality cars.

Take for example a few years ago... Jeff's wagon IPOZESTU probably should have been up for a win as there was NOT another car as "clean" as his there and it had just as many goodies just more tastefully (read stealthy) done as any of the other cars.

We have guys that will come from socal, out of state, etc that might not be aware of all this stuff that have SICK rides.

Other than that... read my other post.



But then again... no one seems to listen to my input anyways.



I'll go cry myself to sleep now.

 

why does that matter? If it looks good it looks good.

 

A stock car has no mods.

As you can see, the cars posted in this thread do have mods. wheels, etc..

https://www.i-club.com/forums/showpo...&postcount=115

 

plus they said in this thread that if its just wheels and springs and things like that it cant be entered. From what i gathered you had to have extensive mods to get a nomination.

 

yeah

nobody nominated my sexy car



I just put a badass carputer in there with a 7" touch screen, everybody loves my black v9 SpecC seats, and everybody loves the PA system

nobody cares because I don't have suspension mods or engine mods

somebody nominate me for Best Seats, Best PA system, and Best Carputer!

 

I'm counting on the vendors to donate some prizes, however, we need a lot of the prizes for the raffle as it is a big event that people love every year, I need prizes for some other events such as the cook off and such. So depending on how much stuff I get... And I don't want the winners of those type of events getting just a t-shirt or something, I want them to have something nice, but the raffle needs that too, as well as the other events. Since I don't know in advance on what Im getting, I dont want to set anyone up for disappointment. Besides, we don't have enough cars for all those categories (best bug eye, best blob eye, best hawk eye, best new age, best GC, ect. It's just toooo specific. There are some other issues with it too. But yeah, thats why. If this was JUST a car show, then yes, we'd do something huge with like 40 cars entered, but thats why we narrow it down from this thread into 5 cars that everyone votes on. Doesn't have to be 5, but that was the first estimate. It's up to I<3subie to decide, but the number souldn't be too high. Basically we're doing part of the voting here online with ALL the cars, then the semi finals will be chosen in a vote ONLINE, and only the semi-finalists will appear at BAM 9, and the people will vote on them there. Understand? So in essence, it's a fully car show with quite a few cars, only we're doing most of the voting here online in BAIC.

 

Well, its hard to nominate cars that only have interior mods, because people naturally look at the outside of a car first.

Perhaps we should have a best interior or best stereo slot? Maybe make another thread about interiors and stereo nominations and the people can post pics of their interiors and such, and we can vote on them, they will be seperate from the other cars, but anyone can enter, even people from this thread. Thats just an idea though... It's all up to I<3subie, this is his show right now.


One thing I wanna add thats not related to what I just said. I thought it was really weird that your seats were as wide as they were. All the Japanese STi seats have always followed the bolster pattern that my V6 seats have since its the Japanese market... Why on earth would they widen them for the Japanese market? Especially for the spec C which is supposed to be the most aggressive Subaru there is... It makes no sense. Or do they expect you to remove the seats and stuff in a spec C since they are mostly made into race cars. Sorta like the TR model where the seats and stuff are expected to be removed? I've been thinking about this since the meet... Just doesn't make sense. Did Japanese people suddenly just get fat or something?

 

Yeah, thats true. I know everyone's cars are special to them, but this is a car show, the best car wins... And springs and wheels wont get you to the top of the list even though they do look good.
