A contest with highly valuable prizes on a board that's dead?

Any RC is acceptable?

I might just whip something up Ive been meaning to get around to. Not sure though, been having some major issues lately with just about everything. Hope to see some entries though from other members.

BTW when is the due date? or start dates?
baratacus
any rc, but it's got to have your blood sweat and tears poured into it. These prizes are colectors items that aren't in production anymore.

Don't think of it as a dead board... think of it as a board with fewer contestants to beat.

Its a two month contest, so lets make it officially closed end of april.

Thanks for opening it up to ALL RC's biggrin.gif

So a plane would be fine? What if we've already done some major work on something/ it's in progress?

Are there any official rules or just build/mod something for 2 months? Do you guys want the progress on it?

please make build topics in the appropriate sections of the board. You can link to them in the open forum so that we can all stay updated on your builds and follow them. Since there will be builds from several different sections it will help dust off the cobwebs in those forums.
Mooshu_Beef
How many projects can we enter? I have tons of pictures of my first plane project with all the progress and a final video I already made.
colintrax
I'll enter my TSA robot.

Ugh...i wish i wasn't broke....and haven't moved on to a real car....
I think the only RC i have left is a Radline that i never got around to selling. Ehh....i do want to join in though, since i've never joined in before.
colintrax
just mod the heck out of that radline!
coolcar24th
Looks like I wont be joining the comp after all. Trying to get my car ready for the test/tune at Zmax dragstrip this Sat, then I gotta get ready for TSA comp in greensboro among other things
baratacus
2 months is a long time. Don't count yourself out yet. You may have some freakish brainstorm some evening or at the track and come up with a killer idea for a project that you could throw together.

You don't actually HAVE to pour your life into it, I just don't want to see someone sticking masking tape racing stripes on a car they bought and entering it. There has to be noticeable thought and workmanship involved.

baratacus
one month left guys! spring break is a great time to get your project together!
Mooshu_Beef
I can't work on my project as much anymore but I think I have some decent progress on it... Is it ok if my project doesn't really work? tongue.gif (My plane )
Chewy
so who here has an entry? I think im going to do two different ones.
baratacus
better hurry, 3 weeks left
Mooshu_Beef
Barat how is my entry? I can't work much on it anymore since school is heating up...
baratacus
you can submit it in nonfunctioning condition. The contestants with finished projects will have an edge over you though.
Master_Spazez
I'm in, I guess I'll just use my thread in the Xmods section as my "build" thread.
Mooshu_Beef
How many entries are there?

Gah, I wish I had more time... I want to do something more with my robot. I won't have time till the end of the semester though (after mid may). I just wanna enter something I already made tongue.gif
baratacus
last week!

chewy what are you working on???
baratacus
Ok it has been brought up in the admin area that we need more time for this contest. We have some new entries and most of the other contestants havn't had time in their buisy lives to do much work on their projects... This i the LAST contest! I don't want a bunch of half finished stuff on the table... lets extend it a couple more months so you guys can get your projects together.
Mooshu_Beef
THAT I can do biggrin.gif

It's been a busy semester. I won't disappoint wink.gif
saturnv7890

JAC4412
Yes when does it end, those are some good prizes, I've got some projects I can put up
baratacus
You guys have till the end of JUNE! Its comming up! GET ON IT!
JAC4412
is there a limit to entries? sorry if this has been noted before but I havent seen a post explaining how many entries we are limited to
baratacus
no limits, this is a no holds barred fight to the finish... well it's supposed to be anyway.

Only one prize per contestant though. If you enter 5 models, only one of them can win.
