Happy to see this again. overall I like the car except for the front fogs...i find they look "canadian tire". But im so glad that we have cars that represent the community again. Good job Danny.

It is a member's car...

I guess they're wishing harm on the guy since it's not a shop car :eek:

Wrapped in Marshal tires, we doubt that this vehicle sticks to the asphalt. We hope so for Kevin’s sake, because he takes his little beast to the track quite often for lapping and drag sessions to test the latest improvements.

The wheels are horrible and don't suit the car at all ( tire too big, color is wrong, etc )
Aside from that the car is nice but to me, it still belongs to sleepingblackSIR cause he built it to look like this and it was insane with the sportmax. Im not into showing off somebody else's built but whatever, I still show respect.

^^^very true
 
How was the COTM chosen?

I believe we should nominate members' cars and then vote for the COTM out of a certain number of nominees. Who's with me?

That is the plan for futur COTM's but we already have few cars shot and since its winter we will use those until we can start polls and shooting others..

We should also have different car categories each month.

Examples: Japanese Compacts, American Muscle, European Mid-Size Sedan, etc.
