Since I'm taking over this section, I wanted to get a good grasp of what the yearly ROTM schedule is. I have read threw the other sticky and the poll thread and seems to be a majority want the generations twice a year, especially the mods, so that has to stay. And the v6 catagory also. With the new 5th gen coming out this month, that will added in also. So here is my plan for the yearly ROTM schedule.

For 2009
Jan - 1st gen
Feb - 2nd gen
Mar - 3rd gen
Apr - 4th gen
May - V6, any year
Jun - 1st gen
Jul - 2nd gen
Aug - 3rd gen
Sep - 4th gen
Oct - 5th gen
Nov - ???
Dec - ???


The reason 5th gen isn't until Oct is because it might take some time to get the group on CF and that will also give the owners to make their cars theres, so the noms wouldn't all have the same car.

So what is needed is two more catagories to finish out this month. Some options that I think would work good are:

- firebird
- mostly stock, any year (would give the not so rich guys a chance to get in there. I'm thinking up to 2 appearance mods and up to 3 bolt ons, details would have to be worked out)
- highly modified, any year (yet again, a lot of people could get into this one)

So with that, let me know what you think as far as potential catagories that can be added in.

Please read this thread before you post something that's already been ruled out by mods.

I say Outlaw F-Body (Non-Camaro owners but they still drive an F-Body) or just a full Outlaw category (anybody without a Camaro)

And then maybe a Ride of the year thing in Dec between the winners of all Previous months?

 

I think the ROTY should be in Jan and include all 12 winners of the ROTM. But that will come in time.

 

I like the idea of complete out-law category, anything other than Camaros, even if it means something that's not GM, as well as the ROTY idea. Next year we will have two 5th gen rotm so we will keep the roty and kill the outlaw category.

 

convertibles category no really, I like the idea of an outlaw category, it'll give the mustang owners a chance to prove that what we think is wrong and that men drive those cars too :P

 

i like the ROTY idea...very nice

have to have an outlaw class

 

here's what we figured on chat last night.... THIS year, we'll have an outlaw AND aROTY category in different months. Next year, there wont be any open spots since there will be two 5th gen ROTMs, so the outlaw category would be in the same month as the ROTY, and it would be more of like, outlaw of the year. Change the V6 category to all 6cyls too. I think that's the best option.

 

Maybe a 4th gen V6 and then a 6 cyn 1st-3rd gen. I think there's more v6 4th gens on CF and only a handfull of 6 cyn 1-3 gen.

 

so if i read what you said correctly...there won't be a camaro ROTY?

 

I'm hoping there will be a camaro ROTY, if we do the outlaw month, then it will be with 11 ROTM winners.
