purple_power 11-02-2011, 05:26 AM I gave it to the panel beater to get rid of, sorry. I have nowhere to keep it. Shame, I should have kept it, and swapped it when we go to car shows so I still have a shot at winning the stock category. :)

gearhead65 11-02-2011, 09:11 PM Just post a pic when the thread opens at the first day of the month. Usually fills up by the second day. Once we have 10 entries, or after 15 days (doesn't usually take that long), voting starts. Check this (http://www.g8board.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26837) thread for more details.
bigbademan 11-02-2011, 09:11 PM Sorry, wrong site lol We are doing a calendar of Chicagoland G8's and GTO's on the Chicagoholdenconnection.com website. Same Idea,Wrong site. Still a cool pic though :)

Appreciate the nomination!
The one month I decide to submit a picture I happen to be going up against one of yours! Not fair! :)
Your photos are always amazing, and I would have voted for yours if I didn't feel obligated to vote for my own!
The Yeti 11-03-2011, 10:04 PM Man, there are 4 photos here that I really like, but one really stands out for me. Too bad I only get one vote. Nice pics fellas!
Vixen 11-04-2011, 05:02 AM All done purple power. Us Aussie livin' gals with the purple commodores must stick together, hey Glenys!! :D
purple_power 11-04-2011, 06:17 AM Absolutely. Thanks for your vote. :D
gearhead65 11-04-2011, 02:49 PM Wow! Looks like Steve GT is walking away with this one.

Thanks, man :)
I haven't had the car long enough to have a chance at taking many good photos. And you're right about Steve's photography... it's hard to overcome the advantage his $1000+ lenses give him! :)

I have a set of 20x9 Matte Black VMRV710's waiting on rubber. I promised the wife I would wait until we need tires for the 19's anyway to buy them.
voted for steve. love that stance
Boss Hogg 11-08-2011, 03:06 PM You're welcome, Steve.

Easy solution. Tell her that you need new tires for the winter.
SMSO966 11-08-2011, 04:14 PM You're welcome, Steve.

I live in South Louisiana, it's rarely gets below freezing, I have NEVER experienced standing snow on the ground. On the rare occasion that we get a flurry, it's gone by the time the sun comes up.
Boss Hogg 11-08-2011, 04:31 PM Same here. Winter brings rain. My wife doesn't know anything about cars, so I just tell her it's a safety issue to avoid hydroplaning. :D
Or take her out in the car and go sideways around a corner and say, "See! These old tires are dangerous!"

HA! He would try that too I think. You could also make your tires wear out prematurely. I'll leave it to you to figure out the best way to do that. :burnout:

What sizes are you going with? The dollar keeps going down in value so you might as well spend your money now while it's still worth something :)
SMSO966 11-09-2011, 08:36 PM ^ Great arguement.
LuminaME 11-10-2011, 12:27 PM in with vote ... good luck to all
