How about a worst TinyRC contest?
 
If you're like me, you can cruise these forums and look at customized bits and miniz's, etc all day long. The good, the bad, and the ZipZaps :)

Why not show off some of you're early attempts, failed paint jobs, destroyed cars, just anything really thats not all that pretty.

We can call it Bit Par-t fouls!! (at least the bits, but I wanna see every kind of small-scale RC here folks)

How about it guys??

sounds like an interesting contest to me, I think some of the entries would be good for a chuckle (*not to be mean or anything, just in good fun :) ). What should the prize be? something related to the contest theme maybe. Tiny what do you think?

killboy 09-26-2002 05:43 PM

YES! Great idea. All these pristine bits are nice, but I'd like to see some Beaterz as well. :D

LOL, that's not fair though, the ZipZaps have a big head start! Cool idea guys, post away. We'll come up with some kind of smashed-up prize to give. :D

HEY
 
hey thats a great idea tinyrc could give away a bit char-g body like the rally lancer or the castol supra but i think i would be kinda concerned about someone destroying thier bit jsut to try to win the contest

killboy 09-27-2002 12:16 AM

Prize is no biggie as far as I'm concerned. If we could just get a nicely organized list of ONLY the entries. These threads get too cluttered to sort through. (hint hint ;) )

I'd also like to see "Action Shots" become a regular thing...for those of us who do more than pose. :D

tinyrc 09-27-2002 12:13 PM

We can have people post them to this thread, then we will create an Album in the Gallery for them like we did with the other contest.

kwikbb 09-27-2002 01:11 PM

Sweet... should some one make this thread sticky? To get more exposure. I'm figuring admin or moderator is needed, correct me if I'm wrong. ;)

hmmm
 
does this only include what the body looks like on the bit? or can it have to do with chassis as well. I mean like if someone took the time to make their bit look all rusted out, wrecked, and beat down, like a real car of 20 years of abuse. wheels that were glued to the axles off center so the car bobs and bounces when driving. :D just something to take into consideration. I just think it would be neat to take an old beat up bit and make it look and drive even worse. A few more ideas I've got floating around..... Dragging muffler, roof caved in a lil, and feild of dreams non drivable car. Basically all "model ageing".

kwikbb 09-27-2002 02:20 PM

lowerdfool good point, I was thinking the same thing too... the contest would be no good to those of us who don't have any unitentional junkers :(.

Wow, that would be awesome! Okay, for a prize for this compo, how about the Skyline Set, it comes with three bodies so you'd have something to fix up your old hoopty with! :)

tinyrc 09-27-2002 02:29 PM

It's all set up now - just post to the thread here, and promote it everywhere else so we can get some good entries!

kwikbb 09-27-2002 02:35 PM
