View Full Version : The Renault Turbo Owners Car Game
Thanks to a good link from PurpleRob here (http://www.rtoc.org/boards/showpost.php?p=233119&postcount=1), a couple of us are willing to give this a go and help run it for the members.
The rules of the comp are as follows.
Each challenge will be held over 12 days, starting from tomorrow morning, Thursday 8th. In those twelve days it is up to the members to go out and get the required photograph set by the challenge. The competition will run over the next 46 weeks (if I can count) meaning there will be 23 challenges. The reason its 46 weeks is because thats how long it is until the 10th National Day on July 28th 2012 and the winner will be announced there!
(if your wondering why its 12 days this gives us 2 days to pick a winner and get the next challenge set! making the two weeks)
The winning photograph will receive 5 points, the 2nd placed 3 points and the third placed 1 point. Now we know and realise not all the members have a Renault Turbo on the road SO an RTOC member can take a picture in his or her non Renault Turbo car. HOWEVER any pictures making the top 3 that are taken in the members Renault Turbo will be given 2 bonus points.
They must be recent photographs!!
The winner of the challenge will get to set the next challenge.
We will post the winning pictures in this thread and pm the winner.
We have set up an email account for you all to send your pictures to, with your online name,and that address is rtocchallenge@hotmail.co.uk
Good Luck everyone and let the games commence.
To get the ball rolling we thought it might be worth a nice easy one to get us started so the first challenge set for the RTOC members is as follows:
Get a picture of your car at a Renault Dealer with the showroom clearly visible behind the car.
And so it begins people! :D

Something like this :)
What if its another members renault turbo?
No, either your own Renault Turbo or your every day car :)
Just because the picture will include a Renault Turbo doesn't mean it will win that particular weeks challenge.
Something like this :)
Yes Chris, but the pictures need to be emailed to the email address in the OP and not posted directly in to the thread :)

:agree:
Anyone can take a photo of their car in front of a Renault dealership, but to win the challenge, it needs to have that 'something else' factor that catches the judges eye ;)

Think that would be quite good as it looks like the topic is dead. Maybe post them on a mirror topic?.
I'm sure people could comment, and get a feeling for what people are doing, plus probably make them want to join in.

Just to give people an idea here is what Purple Rob took yesterday and sent it in! :cool:
I love this idea.. if I had an R5 I'd do it! but they'd shoo me off the forecourt if I tried to take a photo of my Saxo - that or they'd whip it off me for scrappage :laugh:

There isn't an exact limit to be honest. A lot of those rules were taken from the original idea on the other web site.
We'll just use common sense whilst judging so send in whatever you have.

Well done scratcher and cazerooadoo :niceone:
Keep thinking I need to get myself a decent camera but turns out all you need is a camera phone and to be in the right place at the right time.
Get involved people, you never know you could get your name on the scoreboard :agree:
scratcher

Cheers guys :) Some strong efforts!
I hope you like my next round idea :scared:
Scratcher's idea for the next round: 'Up on the roof' - A picture of your car on, or near to, a roof top.
As Scratcher puts it, it's "A chance to get creative with angles and back drops".
Best of luck everyone :agree:
Closing date for this challenge is Wednesday November 16th!
Get snapping!
