**Please read the rules before voting!! Voters MAY NOT vote for themselves!** 1. You can nominate any Stangnet member’s ride for FOTM provided said vehicle has not been declared a winner in the last 12 months. 2. You can nominate one and ONE ride only. 3. You cannot nominate or vote for yourself. 4. If you make a nomination, you are responsible for posting pics IN THE SAME POST YOU MADE THE NOMINATION. You are also responsible for notifying the one you nominate via PM or email so they can have a fair chance of taking and posting the required pics. 5. A nomination thread will be created at the beginning of each month in which pics can be submitted when nominating a ride. After seven days, the nominees will be entered into a voting thread which will contain a poll. There will be a second poll only if there is a tie. 6. It is preferred that at least three pics be presented when nominating so that other members can adequately judge the vehicle and thereby vote for it in the poll. 7. Do not second a nomination. All nominated rides will make the poll! 8. FOTM winners will be eligible for FOTY. 9. Nominees who do not win can be nominated again the following month and so on. 10. The member must still own the ride. Eligibility 1. Nominees must be active contributors to Stangnet. This means you must be an active poster on the forums. This rule was decided upon by Staff. It is not negotiable. 2. In order to be declared a winner for FOTM, the ride must have received the most number of votes in the poll (obviously). 3. The owner of the vehicle must be able to provide at least one exterior pic, one interior pic and one engine pic! It is not necessary to provide more than six total pics although the previous criteria must be satisfied!

Some very sweet cars fellas. Shaolin, come back after the new engine is in... That car is going to be straight BAMF.
Stangnet mobile needs an overhauling. It's what I use 95% of the time, and I can't vote or start threads....
You finish that car, and I'll nominate you... Since it looks like EPIK is running away with this one, haha. EPIK, that is a damn clean car!
I voted for Dustin too, all of his cars are immaculate. Didn't anyone even notice my Iron Chef comment?
I had to go with Epik as well. Gotta say though I am loving the Mach 1's on Nikwoac's 4-eye. Imo, those wheels are damn near impossible to pull off on a Fox but somehow they just work on that car.
That made me grin, thankyousir. The trick was to find a pair or 17x9s for the back with the 17x8s for the front, run staggered tires (245s and 275s) and then get the stance right. I've seen other cars with 17x8 Mach wheels all around and not have the car lowered properly and it just looks "bleh". I'd kill for DD Mach wheels in back, I think that would look soooo bad ass, but nobody makes them anymore, at least not in 17".
Yeah that staggered set-up is a big part of why it works. I know exactly what you mean. Running 9's on the rear definitley helps. Much better than the "sunk-in" look that you sometimes see with the 17x8's (that don't have the right offset/backspacing). I went with 17x8/9" Pony R's for that exact reason. My mistake was opting for rear 255's instead of 275's.
