#20939, "Gi: 2008 / 2009 calender idea to raise money for 2GNT and for the shootout" Dec-12-07 04:32 PM by foggy45
so i was bored and looking through a bunch of old posts and saw a bunch of cool rides that 2GNT has produced. i was then bumed that we never get the recognition we deserve for our ingunity and pushing of our platform to the limits.
so heres what i thought and right now its all just a brain storm to see how many people think its cool and how many think i've just lost it
so here it goes:
in honor of our 10th anniversary i was thinking of a 16 month calender show casing 17 of 2GNT's best rides as voted on by us here. the top voted ride gets the cover and the inside cover with there write-up and pics of various parts of there ride. (whatever they feel like show casing)
so people would take the single BEST pic of there car, and send them to me. March 1st i will post ALL the pics here (or make a website for this, i'm unsure yet) and you will have one month to vote.
the overall winner will then submit more pictures in addition to the orriginal and a short write up about his ride. the other 16 winners will then submit ONE more picture show somthing that makes there ride unique or they are especially proud of. each picture will have there name and years of membership in 2gnt, plus one favorite mod or notable feature (1/4 mile times, HP, rare or special mod)
2nd and 3rd place can pick there month, the rest i will sort by random.
the back cover will be the 15 runners up that werent chosen for months and i will colage them together.
then i will put it all together (high quality, that we can be proud of, figure out a price then sell to 2GNT members. i will first distribute them at the shootout (lol kinda forces me to go now ) hopefully the people in the calendar will be there to sign there picture. after shoot out weekend i will open up sale for the rest here on the forums. BTW the top 17 get theres for free the money will then go to the 2GNT general fund for payment off the server, maintnence, and advertising etc
aight guys let me know what ya'll think (plz dont send pics yet till we figure out if this is gonna work out or not)

i can put out a more solid time line for things as well as picture requirements. i guess i just wanted to see that there was some support for the idea.
so i'll hash some things out this weekend and get a solid plan in place and see what happens from there

definetly a cool idea If we can get some cars that look good all around, you can do a large photo of the car for the calendar and then a smaller photo in the corner of the engine bay. I can already think of a couple cars that imo should make it, but they're both former members

thats what i was wanting one 8 x 11 (at least 5 mega pixel RAW image iirc) of the car it self and then one smaller one of either the engine bay, or some special mod the owner is proud of.
btw - i read the time line and im gonna figure out how to do that in there too

sounds like a great idea, id buy one for sure. It would be sick to acctually be in it, but i dont think my car will have anything other than a few basic bolt-ons and maby a nitrous kit by then. I was thinking, if this goes through, it has to have a picture of the Hahn eclipse. It would be almost unfair if it didnt, it was the inspiration to a huge amount of 2gnt'ers to stick with the 420a.
Thank you mobil one for rust proofing my driveway.
