Best Street/Race Competition #8 (Street Dreams)
Welcome everyone to the Eighth Street/Race Competition!!

The Street/Race paint competition will be open for entrees for two weeks and will close at Midnight September 30th.

Each month we will hold a Best Paint and Street/Race competition. If you can’t get your bodies done this month, don’t worry there will be plenty more to come!!

The winning bodies may appear in Radio Control Car Action or R/C Nitro!!

Restrictions: Street cars only. Whats your dream car to cruise the strip?


RULES for Street/Race competition:

1) Any body may be submitted to the competition (Truck, buggy, touring car, etc).
2) Any body submitted may NOT appear in another competition.
3) Photo editing the pictures (other than cropping and adjusting brightness/contrast) is highly looked down upon and may result in disqualification.
4) Anyone may enter a body (professional painters are welcome!)
5) Please refrain from insulting bodies in anyway.
6) Must fall within this month's restrictions (September restrictions: Street Dreams)
7) Only 2 entrees per person.
8) Bodies should be painted within the last 4 months.
9) Bodies must be of a "street" look or be painted in a race car style.

Each submission must include the following:
Body manufacturer and size.
Paint used.
Masks used (hand or precut)
And of course, a body.

This month the great Wimmerma will be judging the Street/Race paint competition.

Each body will be judged by the following criteria (1-bad, 10-excellent):

Detail (score 1-10) (decals, grills, mirrors, roll cages, if its on a real car you score points here)
Design (score 1-10)
Execution (score 1-10)


The photo and background will not be judged. All that is needed is a clean photo that clearly shows the body.

Each month we will place some restriction on all entrees.

October restrictions:
Best Paint- HALLOWEEN!!!!
Street/Race- None

GOOD LUCK

My show body. Shown on my TA-04 chassis.

Tamiya Mercedes-Benz CLK-DTM 2000 Team D2(discontinued). 190 mm.

Was airbrsuhed in Testors indi silver.

The only mask that was used was the stock window masks.

The reason I chose this body was because my first car ever came with this body, I won alot of races with it and I think its one of the best looking bodys yet. I thought it would be cool to keep one in good condition.

NOTE: I didnt have it done in time for the junior paint competition. I am 13. More picture are avaible.

Performance RC

"9) Bodies must be of a "street" look or be painted in a race car style. "

Race car style? Forgive me for not understanding the poorly explained rules. That Maxx body looks pretty racy to me too:rolleyes:


I'll just go spend another $50 and 7 hours of my time to make another one.:(

Great entrees guys!!

Super-Dayv: Unfortunately your T-maxx body isnt allowed because you did not paint it. (your silvia looks awesome though)

Performance RC: I set up the basic rules that neve change and basically frame the competition. Every other month I then add another rule or Restriction to challange people a little and give them new ideas. These restrictions always take presidence over the general rules. Your body has been "withdrawn" meaning it will not be judged. You may enter it in the next best street/race competition.

TheoDR: I see x's, but ill check back later.

09-24-2003, 11:07 AM
the "gas port" is just an exhaust so its fine as it is. its street, not like some pro jgtc whatevers. ahha.

thats what yoru talking about right?

Super-Dayv
09-24-2003, 12:32 PM
Since my T-maxx body is not allowed, can I submit my truck body for my Schmaucher Nitro Fusion? It is a truck body but it is for the "street"?

Also, I will be on a cruise to Cozamel when this contest ends, how long will people be able to view the winners?

Thanks, SD

mab_man20
09-24-2003, 03:26 PM
By "street" I mean more realistic cars. A jacked up bruiser would be a great entry, but a stadium truck just doest really fit the realistic bill. Sorry.

You will be able to view the results whenever you get back. If its not near the top then you can do a search for "best street/race competition #8" and it should pop up.

Knappster
09-24-2003, 03:27 PM

Navajo sand paintings get destroyed after/during the ritual that they are a part of too, but that doesn't mean that the paintings are sloppy.

Just let me know if my submission isn't valid:)

It is an HPI Micro NSX

I'm thinkin its pushing the limit of 4 months but I honestly can't remember. It is similar to the red nsx I did but yellow;) w/ light buckets. thought I might give it a shot if you want to disqualify it that's coo. I'm close to finishing another body that fits this set I might post it.

Ok guys,

not that many valid entries left that month...
Please check the rules before submitting!

as you might know I'm not a friend of the "score judging"
So every valid entry gats some words...

and now, the judgement...


#7 goes to: nis720
Since I can only see "X" that's the only I can give.:D

#6 goes to: Super-Dayv
nice lowrider but the engine in the back looks not that ideal.
car has no accesories like mirrors, etc.
the rims look also a bit "used", too.

#5 goes to: Performance RC
nice job. I always like to see german race cars. :p
But as you know it's a standard box design.
just try a unique design!

#4 goes to: Super-Dayv again!
nice and clean job though your flames are bad to see.
Are you sure you want to ride such a large rear wing in town ?:rolleyes:

#3 goes to: calvin3
I like it plai and simple , too.
Really good lookin and great rims...
Maybe you should tint the windows just a bit...
And put some mirrors on it...

#2 goes to: philkelly85
Great job! Especially the lightshow.
The only thing is the rear wheels should fit a bit better under the body. CUt the bodyposts the next time. Looks better.
I like the rocket man:D

And the winner is...
you may have guessed...

integra d12

Great looking micro.
Nearly everything seems to be perfect.
OK, the mirrors and the rear wing are a bit too large?!
But congrats it's your win!!!


Hope to see more of your great paintjobs,

Thanx

First thing, it isn't a street race bodies comp. It's a street (something you'll see on the street) / Race (something you'd see on the track).

Second thing, there is a Street/Race competition once every month.

Hi Integra.

What gold did you use on that body?

its not alcad or cusom colour spray as I would normally use, its nicer.

I think ill paint a replica tomorrow, its supprisin how the simplest designs often look the best.
