mainly its an "all-go" kind of month...a chance for guys to show off their engine and all the work they put in under the hood.

so basically an engine bay shot. yeeaaa..

I need mine repainted, and if I get to that this month, i'll post pictures .. I went a little retarded with the green neon paint... remember the calipers? picture it under the hood. good idea then, regretting it now.

I don't have many shots lately. I added another option in that thread. I'll be taking some shots with the engine bay actually cleaned up this month.

Most likely the shot I submit will contain an MP62 mounted in there...

Mine won't stand much of a chance either.... Engine bay is REALLY dirty..... She needs to be cleaned. That and there are far better engines out there.

I don't think this necessarily needs to be an engine bay shot. I think something like a car sitting at the starting line of a drag, or burning tire might suffice as well. Of course, an engine bay shot would be the best way to showcase your performance. I think a list of mods should accompany the pictures, as you obviously can't SEE everything done to an engine performance wise. kwhuack's avatar is a good example.

For the overall concept of AotM I think we should have it just that, an Alero of the Month. If you click the picture or whatever it takes you to the user's submission thread, which contains multiple images of their car's various aspects as well as a list of their modifications.

Like how CobaltSS.net does it.

people would LOVE to see that awesome CAI i've got.. i'm pretty sure it gives me just as much HP as ion's supercharger... that's what my butt dyno tells me.
