A ScanGauge would be mighty nifty.. :)

That's cool. It's way better than the contests where it says "winner will be chosen 6 - 8 weeks after the contest ends" :D :D :D

you got me in, right?

Yup - everyone who has posts until midnight on Friday is automatically entered.

Scan gauge would be a great accory for the Aveo. :D

its wasnt that it was fun, it was that he was wrong, had one thing to back up his side, and made no attempt at accepting other people posts open mindedly to see that the example he was so reliant on was inaccurate in relation to the aveo.

and it wasn't the argument either, it was after you post truly reliable information he would go spam some other section of the forum with the same nonsense..

maybe if he wins the i'll take the $150 to send him some textbooks on the theory of engine building..

The funniest thing to me was that the "proof" that he had to show a k&n drop in filter was superior actually showed a drop in hp. I know how flawed his "tests" were, but that just made me laugh.

For some people there is two opinions, "their opinion and wrong opinion". :)

His posts may still remain, but I think he's gone down the drain.

(As I recall his plug was pulled... for extreme contentiousness) :wink:

Good luck everyone.Anyone who wins deserves it I see alot of great stuff posted around here if it werent for all of you alot of us wouldn't know crap about our cars.

So it's after midnight on the 30th EST... :D The moment of truth comes tomorrow. Just out of curiosity, how much did the activity on the site go up in the last few hours before the end of the contest? Admins, could you post some info? :) Looking forward to the results tomorrow.

Serega: believe it or not, yesterday's traffic was pretty normal. There were only a few last minute shoppers :D

Contest results:

2088 posts were made between March 15 and midnight E.S.T. last night, with the post ID range of 68997-71085. (If you want to know what your personal odds were: divide 2088 by the number of posts you made. Your odds were one in whatever number you get.)

We used the True Random Number Generator at http://www.random.org/ to choose a post ID from that range. It spat out # 70047

Here's post 70047, made on Fri Apr 09, 2010 4:23 pm: viewtopic.php?f=2&p=70047#p70047

byron84, that makes you the contest winner! Congrats! (Please PM me for details on collecting your prize.)

Thanks to everyone for taking part.

For those who might be bummed out because they didn't win, The good news is ...

New contest starts today!

Similar rules. Prize may be different. I'll post the details in a new thread next week.

=D> cool

byron84, that makes you the contest winner! Congrats!

Congrats Byron84

Congrats to Byron! The contest was truly random (which is actually cool)... it was definitely worth it for Byron to join mid-contest and make the 28 posts he did. :D. Congrats again man. Post up some pics when you're done.

And I'm waiting for the new contest rules!

Very nice.


Now what's next???

=D>

Grats byron again...
and good luck to everyone on the new contest.
What is the last day of posting on this new one anyway admins?

Wow, awesome. I think this might be the first time I've ever won anything. What's kind of funny is I never even realized that I was a contender in this contest. :P

It's hard to choose what to get! Something for brakes, suspension or that scan gauge...

Cool Congrats.

Yesterday I thought of a 'how-to' I could post.. and I was like "doh...I didnt think of this until after the contest was over!!" lol.. well glad there's another contest comming up.

My how-to is for a problem my car had a few times...one of the rods for the rear hatch handle would pop out.
