The Big Rtoc Photo Competition

Roll up roll up, it's that time of year for an rtoc photo competition. :)

The club could do with something to galvanise us a little (inc FCS) so here it is............

It's one photo entry allowed per member per topic.

It will be done on a points system. 5 points for first, 3 points for second and 1 point for third place.

At the end of the the comp, the winner gets £20 to spend in the club shop and second place receives £5 to spend in the club shop. So a little financial incentive to join in.

Myself and our SAR will be the judges and our decisions are final. It's only a little light hearted competition to encourage some fun. So no one getting too upset please.

At the end of the competition, there is a possibility to a club calendar being made with some of the entrants pics being included. And these will not necessarily be from each months 1st, 2nd or 3rd.

This times subject is............................

Me and my renault!

So a pic of you and your renault please :) ideally we would of run this a little bit sooner so that maybe people could recognise a face rather than just a screen name at FCS. Or even put a face to a name on here :D

It doesn't matter if your renault is in bits or pristine, a pic of you and it would be grand!If you can't post on here, mail it to me and I'll add it. My email address is liamroadnight@hotmail.com

Each time ill try to stir some enthusiasm by giving you an example, but obviously I won't be included in the competitions scoring system. Try to be more inventive than my lame efforts :cooter:

So here is my entry!!!

Ah, was built by Leyland in Leyland so I guess it's a gate guard to some long disappeared factory.

We are still on a pic of your Renault in its worst condition :)

does this count? :laugh:

Here's mine in bad condition but it was all fixed.

In the process of judging. :)

A result will be up in a few days plus the next topic :agree:

I think it was more fun when you had to go out and take a photo rather than flick through photo bucket for old pics :sad2:

That is the main idea tbh. But all pics accepted :)

The results for this round are as follows...

First place goes to Lukerobbo as that's some major metal work going on that we can all relate to :) so well done:agree::agree::agree:

http://i1203.photobucket.com/albums/...psb9d1daf5.jpg

Second place goes to Nad 5gtt as its stripping a 5 back as far as you can pretty much

http://i1203.photobucket.com/albums/...ps5d4a817b.jpg

And third place goes to Alastair Gresty. Mainly due to the comedy value but also due to its renault relevance in relation to rust! :wasntme:

http://i1203.photobucket.com/albums/...psd44d6abd.jpg

Well done to everybody that entered. It was a tough round to judge. :scratch:

The next topic is.....................

Your renault next to another car! So it can be a super car, sports car, another classic or pretty much anything you fancy that's a little different.

Get those pics up guys!!!:)

Oops...meant to mention to cumulative scores...

Lukerobbo 8 points

Matt w 5 points

Nad 5gtt 3 points

Alastair Gresty 1 point

TurTur 1 point

Good results :)

I actually think it's a bit crap (not even the aeriel fitted) but it's a bit difficult getting them both in a nice location:). Just thought a few might like to see two of 'the best' hot hatches together.
Bit deceptive really as the Trophy is quite a bit bigger.

Loving some of these pics :)
