Interest for ROTM has gone down drastically - as in the last two months we have had ZERO entries.
In the meantime I put a pic of Mandy on the front page (and no, not because its mine - read above it and it should tell why I picked that picture) with a message that all of you should read, consider, plan, then do.
For now the staff and I will be brainstorming for ideas to take ROTM's place.
Not sure what it will be yet.
Thanks for those that did participate and made ROTM a pretty decent success for a few years.

Instead of "Ride of the Month", I suggest "Modification of the Month".
When you look at the entire user base here, I'm sure there are hundreds of projects going on every month. Whether it's changing the color of the gauges, wheels, suspension, powdercoating a new part, made artwork of a 2g, etc.
People can post pics of whatever mod they've done recently. It can be functional or purely aesthetic. Along with the pic, a short (one sentence) reason why they did the mod. No modification is too small.

Still keep Ride Of the Month as main thread theme but add a caption "Modification" or whatever next to it.
How about ROTM random photo location, must include your own dsm open to the 4g63 not just the 2gnt. But only 2gnt's can be a suggestion to you.

Cool it sounds like people are on board. So this is what I'm thinking. Userbase should judge entries on 3 items:
1) Creativity (is this a pioneering 2gnt mod, or simply very artistic?) 2) Utility (how useful is the mod?) 3) Improvement (is the mod a huge improvement over what they had before?)
What does this ^^^ mean? Everyone must submit a "BEFORE MOD" picture along with their "MOD" picture, so we can judge if you actually made things better or should have just spent your time drinking or gardening that day.
Simple entry formula: mod picture + before mod picture + one sentence reason for mod.
No picture size requirements. Everyone fails at that anyway.
Just take those 3 things into consideration when voting for which mod you think comes out on top. Corbin and CODE4 are probably going to win most of these, but the rest of us can try. Past mods can be posted to, just in case we want to bring Azdave in to dominate all
