Lightbulb Lets do a challenge!

I'm just thinking we should set up some fun challenges like...

1. going for the furthest miles on one tank (one for each category - hybrid, si, r18, natural gas if any heh)

2. stealing idea from another site - try to post pics of the car near landmarks etc to get everyone on the road

3. or maybe regional challenges - like the the most members out at like a monthly meet?



Anyone feel free to add to the list or vote on one!

We should have prizes like sweatshirts and stickers or something? or If someone has connections then things like roadside kits, or door sills etc. whatever someone wants to contribute!

Well if there's going to be prizes #1 might not be such a good idea, because it'd probably be hard to prove anything.

Why? I mean, I normally get 8999 miles to my tank. You just afraid I'll make something up?

Forget highest MPG. Let's go for lowest. That'd be much more competitive.

how about the location challenge?

maybe get those who live in the south to post pics of snow on their car and those in the north to show their cars in a desert?

haha

c'mon the idea of a competition rocks, so lets think of ideas!
