Hi guys now its lighter of an evening and hopefully the better weather is on they way lets start this up again. Just for $hits n giggles.
Great idea fella.
Here's a link to last years one.
https://www.rtoc.org/boards/showthread.php?t=24163
I think we should follow those rules but rather than one person judging every week. The previous winner picks the task and judges but misses playing that week out. So everyone will get to play.
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.
What's the first challenge then??
Ok I'll start with abandoned/derelict.
Email them too 4ndygtt@gmail.com by midnight Sunday 14th April.
quality im gettin involved this time. everyones last year was awsum :agree:
I'm in...now to find a perfect shot :)
I'm in! Does my car count as derelict? :laugh:
Better get the gear linkage sorted so I can enter this.
delighted that this is happening again, last year was ace :smokin:
and well done logg for getting things moving again :agree::agree:
As always it open to interpretation. :agree:Quote:

Ok, dumb question perhaps but...
Is it the individuals car we're wanting or just the best picture of any abandoned renault turbo?
Your renault turbo or another car you own looking abadoned/derelict or parked next to something that is abadoned/derelict. ;)Quote:

Logg, I hope that picture you drew wasn't a piss take of the old girl as there are some similarities there !!!!!!!!!!;)
I will post the challenge here before the night is through, I have asked Logg to judge the next one as well as I work away and if I have to go I can't guarantee I will be able to give my full attention to this so don't want to spoil it for everyone, plus I paid Logg well for my win and feel he should pick me again in the next one as he didn't give me any change:D:D
Greg, congrats dude :agree:
Jp,.... Wow! That is all!

Lol ive been trying to take a pic for the last week. No time. Only 3 entries. Gauranteed bronze. Lol:)
Arh crap I've been meaning to sort one out and ran out of time :( next time I'm on it :)
I've been wanting to enter this all week but the yellow 5 has been a nightmare. Lately I have done:
Head gasket twice
Rear break bias valve
Welding
Cv gaitor
Horn
Small welding fire (my bad!)
Fan
And a whole lot more. Once its through its MoT I will be back in the game!
Sounds like you've had a rough few weeks Aiden. :cry:
It don't mater if it your Renault turbo or not a good picture/idea will still win.
If I was going to enter last months I would of FaceTimed someone in another country and got them to take a picture of my car being FaceTimed to them. :D
Right my winning three this round are.

It was going to be either gold silver or bronze lol.
I dont mind judging logg.
My email is Mwhitebuilders@hotmail.com but i will have to send them to you logg to put up on here after if that ok im useless at computer **** :scratch:
My idea is... A picture of your car with either a plane or helicopter in shot.

Big thanks to Matt for taking over the judging and running this round. :agree:
Also if no one minds there cars appearing on Facebook could who every runs our page post the winning pictures on there too. :) As I don't do Facebook.

Looks good:smokin:
Thanks for the win guys.
Mattw: do you want to re judge the pics again in light of Russell's picture not coming through?
If the result is the same then I have an idea for the next round which I believe Russell may be pleased with anyway :agree:
Cheers
Ross
Please dont do it again the winning pics are better than mine.
Ok, that's cool then :cool:
So for next month:
ACTION SHOTS
The sort of stuff that gets the blood pumping :D
Maybe your car cocking a rear wheel round a hairpin or warming the front tyres etc etc.
What I will say is be sensible though, no need to get yourself in trouble for the sale of a photo.
Shall we say 1 month from today to announce the winner?
The email address to send them to is: skodog@live.co.uk
Thanks and good luck
Ross
Ive got a shed load of them :laugh: but Ive not taken any of them so I presume for this round its OK to submit a photo you havnt taken?
So long as its YOUR car being piloted by YOU, then that's cool :agree:Quote:

How did I miss the aircraft one!!! There is a Vulcan Bomber less than a mile from my house!! :mad::mad:
Oh dear I don't know how to tell you but that's not the picture I entered its an old one. I entered a new one from Barbon. Any way let me nominate this months theme. Since we all know that our cars are a class act lets have photos of them at on or by a golf club
Btw where is your pic from looks like a nice backdrop to the track.:agree:
That's the fantastic Anglesey Track Trac Mon. With the Snowden national Park beyond the Menai straight. There cant be a more majestic setting for a motorsport venue.
This is the photo I sent in for the comp
https://www.rtoc.org/files/Technical%...04%20RTOCs.jpg
Cost me £20 as well :cartman:
Anyway re the golf club theme PLEASE DO NOT PARK ON THE GREENS OR TEES but if you snuck into the Captains spot when no one was looking.... as long as you arnt bothered being a member anytime soon :laugh:
Golf Club Enteries to russell@oldlinkssurgery.com

Lol what about a pic showing the best view from your home village, town or city.:agree:Quote:

You need to set a closing date and give your email address Ricardo.Quote:

Pic received from 'DJ Craig' to be honest i've been slack and only just checked my secondary e mail account and it was in there :cartman: :ashamed:
Anyway, the first and only pic so far :)
Am i supposed to post it up now?
I've sent you a pic mate.
Arthur, pic received. Not sure where the local point of inerest is as i only see the car, that's about it :ashamed: Unless i'm missing somethingQuote:

Just submitted mine mate, let me know if it hasn't come through...
Heres a clue...
Its 54 metre wingspan is bigger than a Boeing 757 or 767 jet. :scratch:
Ash i have the e mail but the attachments want to be saved as a Winzip file? :confused:Quote:

Tutuur, i'm afraid your pic fails as it's not from where you live
Didn't know that's the criteria. Will send you a different pic then.
Criteria is: A photo of your car next to a point of interest in your town, a bonus point being a fact about the point of interest.
Deadline is tomorrow (5th November) but happy to extend till say Friday. I have 2 entrants albeit I can't open Ashys pics :rolleyes: my bad so this gives other people a chance to take part. How does that sound?
You won't have to extend the deadline for me mate, i just sent my pic out of boredom anyway.
Don't have anything that qualifies atm and no time to make one :cooter:
PM for ya mate.... 2 entry's? That's good odds!
Pics received Ashy.
Ok the deadline stays as the 5th November, entries in by 4pm tomorrow then I'll choose the winner and post the pics up :)
Before i go ahead with anything, do i PM the winner BEFORE posting pics or just go ahead and announce the winner and runners up on the thread with the pics all at the same time??
I don't want to get this all wrong :ashamed:
Just post it in the thread mate!
Well, after sifting through all the entries...... 3 to be exact, and 2 of them from 1 person :D i've chosen a winner. So a big thank to Ashy and 'DJ Craig' for taking the time to head out to somewhere of interest locally to take a pic.
In SECOND PLACE...... DJ CRAIG
FACT: My 5 parked infront of a old coal mine site wich as now been turned into a leisure center, the wheel you see at the front was used on the old mine shaft and the leisure center has been designed to look like a wheel.

Cool, thanks, guess I need to think about the rules for the next round!
Well done ashy, good pictures :agree:
Late, very very non official entry, as the photo isn't current & has been seen before & the car is on a trailer. Just thought some might be interested.
Photo taken outside the Cat & fiddle pub at the top of the infamous Macclesfield to Buxton "cat & fiddle run" on the A537 Often referred to as the most dangerous road in britain.
However in recent years the whole thing is a average speed health & safety farce.
