I've seen the car at a shop before, it's very nicely done for a poor man's Porsche....regardless, go to the home page and look at the total volume of threads and replies and you'll see the 2ndgen crowd owns everyone else here, 1stgen or 3rdgen, in sheer activity. I'm sure that's why they get the featured car and we don't this time....

It just pisses me off that we've been seeing a 2nd gen up there for like two years now, and finally they get the featured car working again and they put another ******* second gen!
I'd even go for a 3rd gen at this point, but obviously our section of the forum didn't have ANY say in what car was put up there... How do they choose it anyway? Do they just ask the 2nd gen section guys which of their cars should be featured.

We really should have some rules for how the car is picked. If it continues to go on abitrarily then how will we even know how to get our car to be the "featured car"? Right now no one knows if it's most origingal(well except that one because it's not), best looking, or most performance. Maybe we should mention some rules to someone to level the playing field.

Meh, I'll be surprised if a 1st gen gets up there as featured car. It seems to me that if we had a 2nd gen up there for two years the least that BOOSTD7 could do is put a 3rd/1st gen up there.
Guess what generation he owns?

Prosthetic head.
Yeah I would definitely go for a 3rd gen. 2nd gen's aren't bad, hell I have one! But it's been up there so long. Perhaps we can get the ball rolling for the future with a poll in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gen sections for "should the featured car be changed monthly? yes no".
Maybe I'll start a poll in each section.

it'd be very simple to add a script that would have a 'car of the month' for each generation section, with one of the three randomly displayed for the lounge and other sections

not me...maybe you've got a portal to the past...
ps. Scalli's a real nice guy, so be nice and happy that an actual posting member of the Forum has got a car up there that actually sees the road right now...

ray,
when was the last time you cleared your internet temp files and internet history?
If you can't remember, then that's probably your reason. Your home comp has the red car cached as the image that goes there. I'm willing to bet that the *name* of the image never changes, just where it points. So clear your temp files and your history and you're good to go.
