Congratulations to rkrenicki for taking home the title of September's ROTM in 2014! That was a bit close up until the end, remaining tied for a span of time.

October is now ahead of us. As we head into fall, now would be a great time to nominate those great fall shots, or maybe a spooky car :wink:

NEW! Winners of ROTM will receive a special, limited production decal for their accomplishment. Only 12 are made per year, and are reserved for ROTM winners. You can't obtain them any other way. No purchase is necessary when you win. Join the exclusive club!

Here are 4 simple rules before you nominate someone (and yes, you can nominate yourself). Please read over the entire rule list. [LINK] (https://sl-i.net/FORUM/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=24958&p=295563#p295563)

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 12 months. A winning user may compete again with a different car.
4) No nominating a car that participated in a voting round within the past 3 months. If the car was nominated but not chosen to compete, 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&p=295563#p295563). The rules listed above are the most important to take note of before submitting.

When submitting, choose the best full car 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 Friday, October 10th, 2014 at 11:59pm PST. That is 7 days to make a decision on who you would like to nominate, so choose quickly. 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.

[98legwag]

Feel free to nominate people.

I'm not too familiar with many ppl here and what their rides look like.

Why not do a off-road rally this month?

[rkrenicki]

I'm not too familiar with many ppl here and what their rides look like.
How is that possible with 1400 posts? hah.. Browse around, and find some you like.

I like to nominate cars with like engines or like years. I think that a "harlequin" battle isnt really that great of an idea personally, besides.. there really are not that many on here. What do you think this is.. the facebook group? hah.

I just noticed Im2co0L's build thread the other day and I'm a sucker for clean white cars so he's my nomination.

Im2c0oL's 15' Legacy CWP Build Log (https://sl-i.net/FORUM/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=28888)

Hah true. I'm horrible with names and who their cars are. I know a few but not everyone's lol.

Hah facebook sli is pretty funny. I hang around just to read the comments and watch everybody ask about "what exhaust fits my 2nd gen and I have a p0420 code" just about everyday lol

I see your clean white car, and I raise you your clean white car.

Damn Koi, your car is realllllly starting to come together with the wide body. I wasnt sure how I felt about the wing at first, but the black on red looks killer.
