@ashes619 -

"Cars must be 1960's models only from any country of origin"

as long as we keep it in Rome

 

[ashes619]

Good. Disappointed that I need to take more pics because I had some great ones. Oh well. Guess I just need to take some better pics

 

[Jason_B]

I like this, lots of possibilities.

 

[CCShaft7]

BTW, I will gift a prize car to the eventual winner .

I think I have about 20 or so cars under 1,000,000cr that fit in with this comp and the winner will get to choose from that list. 👍

good luck to everyone who takes part.... looking forward to seeing all your best shots .

 

[Jason_B]

Oops, 60's only, so far I've had the wrong decade twice.

On the bright side, 1949 Beetle gallery coming soon.

Lol Who knows? someone might come up with a "Herbie" theme in the near future 💡.

So guys as long as we are in the 1960's anything goes so any 30hp cheap as chips little runner stands the same chance as an historic race car or supercar. Remember one mans 'old bucket' is another mans 'little gem'.

entry sent. now the exciting part begins...

 

[Fezz_ST]

Don't forget guys, I don't judge the entries, send them to CCShaft7

 

[CCShaft7]

Just a few entries so far although still plenty of time to get those entries in

💡 I might compile a list of the cars in my garage that qualify as a prize so that may be like "a carrot on a stick" to entice you all

The cool thing about this comp is no pre-conceptions of what will make the winner before the poll is up as in the other competitions so its just a matter of giving it a go cos u never know 👍

Keep em coming.

Lets just say everyone so far has 100% chance of making poll so far,
I'm hoping to compile a top 10 at minimum by Sunday - so to everyone else reading this send me your shots and give yourself the best chance of "driving" away a classic car from the 1960's.... go 4 it

@Jason_B

Entries building up nicely now, some excellent shots coming in 👍.... don't be shy now, PM me with your best shot before Sunday 12 GMT.

no such thing as too many entries. "The more.. the merrier" as they say.

 

[nismo33]

12pm? ie the afternoon?? Or 12 am the end of the day???

12pm afternoon I believe, I am judging this week so I think that it is the deadline to send me your entries.
But it would be best to ask Fezz_ST, he is the moderator for the competition and will set up the poll after I send him the final choices.

 

[Fezz_ST]

12pm gmt

 

[CCShaft7]

What a race....what a result>>>>Go Lewis 👍

just a couple of hours to go to join the party. Definite Top 10 poll coming so still not too late for you to be one of those

 

[ashes619]

Can't wait for the poll. There will be a lot of variety in this poll.

And that was a great race. I am so happy that Webber got from 18th to 3rd. Hopefully he gets a win soon and beats his team mate

 

[CCShaft7]

Can't wait for the poll. There will be a lot of variety in this poll.

Well unbelievably given the scope of 1960's cars in GT5 out of the 17 entrants I have 3 people entered the same car twice.... meaning 3 with the same model and another 3 with the same model, plus another 2 entrants with identical cars.

This will not factor into any decision made on the final 10 though which I will put purely down to shots themselves and how well they capture the theme.

Got a busy day but hope to have my selections sent through to Fezz_ST in couple of hours or so.

[CCShaft7]
