The last two COTM, and previous competitions too, have featured 914 track/race cars. There have been a few suggestions to hold a COTM exclusive to race cars. This seems like a reasonable idea... Below are some draft entry criteria that could be considered for a Race Car COTM if there is support for the idea.
Racers, builders, 914World members - feedback/comments/suggestions? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Propose to hold the "914 Race/Track COTM" once/year. Propose to include first 6 nominated and seconded cars. 914 Race/Track COTM Entry Rules: 1. The 914 is not street legal. 2. The 914 has participated in at least one (1) event (event = any club or otherwise sanctioned race against other cars or the clock). 3. Engine/Body/Interior/Wheels/Tires: no limitations/definitions, anything goes Created a yes/no poll for additional input from 914World members. Sept 5th Update: Some good comments on this question of adding something new to Car Of The Month. Poll closed at 80% in favor of doing something for race cars. Change is good - let's give it a try and make it work! |

It is your show and I think you are doing a great job. So if you want to do race cars, go for it. Or any other kind of catagory of 914's you want. And that's why we can't have anything nice ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) The guy is trying to throw you guys a bone and all you can do is bicker about useless details until everybody is so fed up with all the BS that we'll never ever run a race car only COTM. You could have just embraced the idea and run with it, but noooooo, that would have been too easy. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) Shawn, as always, I will help you with this and I'm thankful that you volunteered when I decided to step down. But this Thread is one of the reasons I gave it up - everyone has an opinion of how the COTM should be run, but only Rusty, Rick, you & myself have ever stepped up to do the dirty work. If you want to do a Race Car COTM - do it, don't ask If you want an A/X COTM -dida If you want a LE COTM - dida -6 COTM - dida ETC Because if you ask, there will be a Million opinions and the peeps that didn't get their wish get all bent out of shape. I always just did a general COTM open to all 914s as it was easier. Now it is your's to run, do it anyway you want - you are doing a good job (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
