shakatak - Withdrawn on 28 MAY 2023. Removed from poll.

Original post follows below:

Welcome to our first grassroots ROTM challenge. This is the first in what we hope are many challenges that will be run by the members.
  • Rules of the Month:
    • One personally taken picture of your R at least 100 miles or 1 hour from home and tell us where it was taken.
    • A write up of why your R should be considered as ROTM can be added with your picture or later on In this thread (e.g. In keeping with the theme, years owned, modifications, etc.)
    • Entries are limited to new potential winners only. No previous ROTM winners this month please.
  • Solicitation of votes should be done in this thread
  • A first place tie will be resolved by coin flip witnessed by another fanatic (in person or virtually).
  • Basic Rules:
    • Members MUST have at least 20 posts.
    • Voting will take place towards the end of the month.
  • If you should win:
    • You are responsible for setting the ”Rules of the Month” for the following month - Please keep it simple and open to any fanatic.
    • If the “rules of the month” aren’t chosen within a week of when you win, they will be chosen by another member (e.g. active fanatic, or a previous winner, etc) so we can setup the thread for the next month. I'll reach out to the winner via a Conversation, so that I can setup the following month.
    • If you've won, you cannot enter that R for the rest of the year (at least, it depends upon the Rules of the Month); however, if you have a second SSR that meets the criteria, you can enter that R.
  • What do you “win”?
    • Bragging rights - For example: My SSR was ROTM - April 2023
    • Badge on your profile. - Thank you @Marc NY
    • Most importantly - Seeing others Rs, what they’ve done with them, showing your own and the camaraderie we experience as being a member of this forum

Example for this month:
<I have no idea what happened to the picture, as it is still attached but no longer shows up>
Tire Automotive parking light Wheel Car Land vehicle

This picture was taken on our first trip to Stonehenge a number of years ago in Ingram, Texas. It was a great trip with what became our favorite traveling partners and likely where the phrase, "Follow the red truck" was coined.

When you don't want door dings. Taken at Road America during the Vintage Car road races in Elkhart Lake, WI. 2005 pretty much stock. We bought it May 14, 2019 with 51,897 miles and we currently have 90,717 miles. She loves road trips and by the miles we average 9,727 miles per year. Just had her ceramic coated and she sure does shine.

Bumping this back to the top. Come on Folks get involved and participate. If you don't things like this will fade away. Being the R of the Month is bragging rights. If it fades away the new members will never know about it.

So pick your favorite story, pick your favorite color, heck I don't care if you pick a number out of a hat, just please be involved and keep this feature going.

This is something for the members, so step up and vote, maybe next month you will be in the running. And as a bonus the winner gets to pick the next months idea so get involved and be a part of something as big as this. VOTE.

Hello All
It has been brought to my attention that I may have violated the rules for this contest.
Back in May of 2017 my SSR won the old ROTM contest, I missed the rule that said you could not have been a past ROTM winner, and only caught the part that states you could not have won in the past year.

So please disregard my photos and vote for the others.

Sorry for the confusion on my part.

Maybe the Themes can change but the rules remain the same for future ROTM's.

Good luck to all who have entered, may the best Photo win.

Thank you sir. I’m working to see if the poll can be updated to reflect your withdrawal. If it cannot be done easily, we’ll let the poll continue and disregard the votes for your R.

If you have voted for shakatak, please update your vote to one of the other entries.

Everyone that has voted can change their vote up until the poll closes.

Sorry for the confusion.
