And that should be the end of that.

----------------------------------------------------------------------


Due to circumstances beyond my control I've had to shuffle Rollaclub over to a different IP address which means another DNS change. Some people may find themselves unable to access Rollaclub during the day tomorrow though site should be back to normal by ~6pm tomorrow evening for everyone.


Obviously regrettable but unfortunately unavoidable.




------------------------------------------------------------------------


Maintenance is over, you can report bugs you find over here


The site will be down from 10pm AEST 12/4/12 (this Thursday) for about 6 hours. It's possible the maintenance window may need to be extended beyond this but updates will be provided should that be the case.

Guys, weve put up a new sub forum dedicated to sheds. I've seen it on other forums, particularly when looking for inspiration when designing my own shed, theres some cool stuff out there.

Show us where you do all the work: factory, she'd, garage, carport, tent, back lawn. Slap pics up, show us the mods and changes you make, tell us the plans, just like your rides threads!

Late as usual, sorry guys. I've gone for 6 entries as finalists this year, covering a spread that should include something for almost everyone one. There were a few cars that I would have loved to include but were lacking in the rides thread department. If you our your favorite car has missed out, remember to get that rides thread up-to-date ready for next year. I'm still waiting on a reply about prizes from sponsors but failing that I'll make sure there's something good for the winner myself, along with the usual forum based prizes.


Yokohama have for the winner a $500 tyre voucher as well as a hoodie.

I've also got a Yokohama hoodie and hat prize pack to give away to a voter each week up till the end plus one for the runner up.


Check out the finalists rides thread before voting as photo's alone don't do them justice.

Here they are in random order:

Spencer's KE70




NISROLA's KE30




GJM85's KE20



Oh-KE's KE38




chestikoph1's KE55




Ben-89's KE70

Its back again this year, Car of the Year 2011. If you missed it last year you should check out the nominations, voting threads and last years winner:



Nominations are open from now until Midnight, Saturday 26th of November.

• The nominated cars owner should be an active member during 2011.
• The car should have a Rides or Technical build thread which should be linked with the nomination (makes things easier for me).
• Members may nominate their own car.
• A cars owner may reject their nomination.
• The car does not need to be complete (is any project car ever complete?) however it should have been on the road/track during 2011.
• Finalists and Nominees from last year are welcome to be nominated this year provided they meet the requirements above.
• Mods and Admins cars are eligible however this will exclude them from the shortlisting process (see below) and they may not nominate themselves.
• Cars are more likely to be shortlisted if they're "built, not bought".
• Any other rulings will come from myself as necessary. Just ask if you need some clarification.

From there the Mods and Admins will come up with a shortlist of around 5 cars for everyone to vote on. As usual I'm going to try and have the shortlist done and voting up on the 1st of December. As with previous years the voting will then be open until 2359hrs 31st of December AEST (Brisbane time) with the winner crowned on New Years Day.

Whats in it for the winner?
TBA - It will be good though...
