John - having seen your car in the flesh mate - it deserves a "feature car" rating. ;)

Yes, the initial feature car was rather bias :P
but there isnt any sort of selection criterea.
car just has to be neat and tidy to be considered.

JOhn's car was selected so as to suprise ppl when it was back

With regards to the next or future feature cars, how are these decided. I remember with the maximum torque mag, the owners were just approached to have their cars in there. I wonder wether a pole + vote would be a good scheme, let the massess decide.

Just a suggestion

The other Idea that we had were that in turn, one person from each state.

The way its going to work is each month we will select a car from a state in turn, so since john's ed is victoria, WE pick someone from WA, then SA, QLD, NSW, you get the idea ;)

the feature cars are basically picked by the admin ppl at the moment, at a later date we may change the selection process, currently this is the easiest way since we're just trying to get the section of the site up and running

You're not the only person that selects the car :P
just to assure everyone, it is a joint decision.
we will also be selecting a wide range of cars.
specials (APV/SVO/Brock's)
nice clean stockies
highly modified
anything can be considered a feature car, but keep in mind the club has MANY impressive cars.
