And ... all of you guys who've posted outside of the posted timeframe, unfortunately your vehicles are not eligible to participate unless you'd like to repost in the timeframe specified.

1 fast Z, I pm'd you. If you'd like to send me a little specific info on your cylinder head, I'm happy to go ahead and correct myself in this month's web watch - there's so much to your build that I did not know what was most special to you. Let me know what you'd like me to do, I want you to be proud of what was printed about your car as it's a terrific vehicle.

Word and picture wise, is exactly as the post requests. The magazine is definitely not geared toward the new and not very exotic, however for the part of the magazine that this contest is for, it's a very limited amount of space - it's for a vehicle/owner to represent HybridZ in our quarterly "Car of the Quarter" section. In short, I understand from this forum especially the difficulty with summing up one of your vehicles in 20 words, considering the time, work, and parts that go into them but unfortunately for this section, at least, it's a small slot. Behind the Wheel is the larger vehicle write up area, and if you're interested in that you're welcome to visit http://nissansportmag.com/contact/vehiclesubmissions.html; if you'd like see more of what our magazine looks like, check out this link http://nissansportmag.com/lookinside.html. Thanks for the question and have a great day!

It's time again to do the Nissan Sport Car of the Quarter selection for the Summer 2008 issue! I'm going to allow a little more post time for this one, since I'm giving a little less prep time, so here goes: Thursday, May 29, between the hours of 7:00 and 10:00 pm EST post the necessary information in order to be eligible. At 10:00 EST (7:00 PST) I will log on, assign each entry a number, and do a random number drawing to determine the winner. Your vehicle must be a Z in order to participate, and unfortunately if you've won previously, you're not eligible as of now. Here's the information I need, and remember, the picture must be high resolution: Name (first and last): Handle: City/State: Year/Make/Model: 20 word or less description: High Resolution Photo of your vehicle. Anyone posting within that time frame with the required info will be eligible. Good luck to all, post up some great Zs!

This is me, FILLED WITH JOY!!! Big thumbs up from me this morning!

Alright, we're all done! Now I'll assign each of you a number, and as your number is called you'll be eliminated. Best of luck, all!

Really awesome cars! Keep posting 'em for the next 16 minutes. These are really terrific cars here.

Well, yes - it is random. But if you'd like, you can always wait until your Z is done and then try.

Yup, if you're in Canada City/Providence is just fine. All members can participate, regardless of what country is your home.

Then you're in the right place! For this contest, I'd like to do 12 hours of posting so that hopefully we can get some really great entries in. On February 27, 2008, simply post the below information between the times of 9:30 am and 9:30 pm EST (6:30 am - 6:30 pm PST) to be eligible (all entries posted before or after that time will not be eligible). I will select from the eligible entries at 9:30 pm February 27 using random number generator and announce who the winner is in this thread. The winner will be featured in the upcoming Spring 2008 issue of Nissan Sport magazine (www.nissansportmag.com) in the Partner Forum section. Car of the Quarter will be seen by over 20,000 Nissan Sport readers worldwide and will go into over 1,000 bookstores across the US. Please note: In order for your vehicle to be eligible to win Car of the Quarter for hybridZ.org, it must be a Z. Also, if your vehicle has been featured as Car of the Quarter previously, it is not eligible more than once at this time. Good luck! Name: Handle: City/State: Year/Model: Vehicle Details (max 20 words): Vehicle Picture

Let's see, yes to international subscriptions - there are actually directions on the website to subscribe overseas. Both Mull's and 1 fast Z's Z's will be mentioned in my column, actually. I write about what is going on on the forums and so I wrote a little about both builds as they tied in the poll! It'll be in Sarah's Web Watch if you're interested in reading.

Sorry about that - I didn't have enough room to post the majority of the links as they exceeded the character limitation!

I know it was a suggestion made tongue in cheek, however I feel there is oddly a lot of great info underneath the flamage. http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=84203 Rips RB30 build: http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=124555
