your tires are pointed the wrong way (i.e. your rims are more impressive than the tires, which are just, eh).
uh those trees are bamboo.lol. but i turned my tires in this shot cause I didn't want all my shots to look the same ol same ol. hence the additional pics i put up.

hee hee, not used to seeing bamboo that hasn't been cut up & made into drinks.

There's a reason most ppl (cept tire companies & possibly action shots), turn the rim to face the pic - it simply looks better.

like I said before, very nice overall. The only other thing you could do is to lower the car and take pics again, hee hee.

Could you possibly get this picture again without all the bluriness?



That picture would be killer if we could use it. Maybe you need to adjust your camera settings or something... I know my camera does the same thing if I don't have the flash turned on.

Another thing ladies and gents, I'm going to extend the deadline because I'm still trying to reel in a few more pictures from people - either better quality shots or larger files. Also, because Micky hasn't come through yet and we all know his car is a must for this calendar...

I've got an idea for the cover that I need to run by my editorial team and then be on the lookout for a cover-art thread later this week or next week!

Mods, Please lock this thread. Unless I've contacted you via email, we've officially finished taking submissions.

We've actually got a good number of entries to fish through.

Thanks everyone!



Be on the lookout for the official selection process some time this week. Hopefully we can figure something out quickly.
