Congratulations to Bataru for winning the March ROTM! It definitely wasn't easy competition, as anyone who was faced with the responsibility of voting could tell you.

Let's start nominations for April's ROTM! Here are 4 simple rules before you nominate someone (yes, you can nominate yourself):

1) ROTM is open to all active members with a MR1 thread.
2) Must be a Legacy, Outback, or Baja.
3) No nominating a car that has won within the past 6 months. A winning user may compete again with a different car.
4) No nominating a car that participated in last month's voting round. If the car was nominated but not chosen, it may be re-submitted this month.

View the full set of rules here (https://sl-i.net/FORUM/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=24958). The rules listed above are the most important to take note of before submitting.

When submitting, choose the picture you think best represents the nominated car. Remember, this will be the competing photo, unless the owner of the car themselves requests a different photo. In addition to a photo, include a link to the MR1 thread.

Nominations end Sunday, April 7th, 2013 at 11:59pm PST. That gives you a full week make a decision on who you would like to nominate. After that, we will choose the three best contenders for a tight race. We are not just taking the first three submissions, we are taking the cars we think will put up a good fight against each other, so even if you are the 30th nomination, you still have a chance.

No theme, submit your best (full car) picture!

I mean, it's powered by dogs now! It's got to be the only engine/animal swap out there. That's worth something, right?

So far we have the makings of a one man ROTM competition. Would that be considered a theme for this month?

Thank you for being the person to nominate the GT-B, I was waiting for all of Dead's Legacies to get in on the fun :P

I hate to call it early, but it looks like Dead91silvia might win this month. The other two cars don't stand a chance :lol:

But really, nominations are still going. I'm only taking one of Dead's cars. I need two more (at least).
