Registration for the car/truck show (June 8, 2013) will open in the next day or two and I'll post information in a new thread.

We're going to make a few changes to the car/truck show this year. Most of the categories will stay the same but some of the voting rules will change. Voting will still be people's choice.

We're adding categories for Darts and Vipers since we've added those forumZ to the network. We're also adding a lighting mods category. This will be judged Saturday night in front of the hotel. I'll post more information about that later.

The trophies will be the similar to the last couple years except they will only say"Gatty" without the "6." That way, if there are extras, they won't be wasted. Since trophies are awarded according to the number of participants, it's hard to know how many to order.


The first 50 members to register will also receive dash plaques.

Here are the changes.
Best in Show will not be a category on the ballot. Instead, The car that receives the most votes overall (the total of all categories) will win Best in Show.

The second change eliminates the possibility of members voting for themselves. We've had issues in the past with members voting for themselves in almost every category.



The following categories will have 1st place only:
Best in Show
Greatest Distance Traveled (Driven)


The following categories will have 1st, 2nd, 3rd place:
Best Performance Mods
Best Appearance Mods
Best Audio/Visual Mods
Best Theme
Cleanest Ride
Best Stock Ride
Best Paint
Best Lighting Mods (new category)


Trophies for the following categories will depend on the number of entries:
1-5 entries = 1st place only
6-15 entries = 1st and 2nd place
16 or more entries = 1st, 2nd and 3rd place

Best 300
Best Avenger
Best Caliber
Best Challenger
Best Charger
Best Dart (new category)
Best Dakota
Best Duragno
Best Jeep
Best Magnum
Best Nitro
Best Ram
Best Viper (new category)

Is this a forum show or is it in a specific location?

The Gatty (Gatlinburg, Tn) meet is specific to the GigaThreads network, you have to be a member of one of the forums to attend. The past two years the show has been at the Smokies Ball park just outside of Seiverville, Tn. They also have set up a autocross in the parking lot (free to supporting members). Kim will be putting out more info as she get activities planned.

This thread is basically for the car show only. Kim plans different activities across the 4 day meet that you can participate in if you want. She'll be posting more about it in the coming months.

We are making a small change this year. If you win a trophy but don't attend the awards lunch on Sunday, you will have to pay for the shipping of your trophy. We spend a lot of money last year to ship trophies.

We have 45 members registered for the show. The next 5 will get the last 5 dash plaques. We don't have any Darts registered yet and we made a new class just for you Dart owners.
