how can a car that isnt even owned by the OP win ROTM?

It did exist, is well-documented, and truly cutting edge for its' time.  That is why it was granted a "special entry".

Now it's up to you guys to get your cars prepped for a photoshoot and submit YOUR entries!  Show your EB pride!!!

Because I let him enter it.  And it seems no one dared to compete with him.

I'll start voting.  But it may be a little before my SHO is ROTM material. I will submit then.

Submit it, the more the merrier, nothing wrong with submitting your car even with mild mods. There's plenty of clean stock looking cars that win shows. :)

Guys I still haven't figured out how to vote.  I would put my car up but I don't have any mods other than the LED upgrade.  IMO in order to put yourself up, the car needs significant mods.  That's a few years away for me.  Love all the cars so far and always excited for the next month.  What about having 'mod of the month'?

There wasn't any voting for October.  When there is voting, you will see the poll at the top of the new thread for voting.  (Not on the submission thread.)

Hey guys!
Thanks again for the kind words. I unfortunately don't have many pics of the blue car. I was scheduled for a professional photoshoot that never took place because the car got demolished one week before... Anyways, I will try to find the time sooner than later to create a new thread for the one interested in which I will summarize the evolution of its mods, its racing history, more pics and youtube links.
As soon as I have more time...
Thanks!
