Welcome to SentraChallenge, our third NFSU design comp. This one is gonna be a real challenge - make the ho-hum Sentra LOOK GOOD!! All over the showroom you hear people saying how the Sentra is one of the hardest cars to mod, and now we're gonna find out!

Once again, the rules are very similar to previous challenges. The only real differences are in the design rules, so if you've entered before, you need only worry about the design constraints. Read on...


Design

1. Erm, well you gotta use a Sentra! No ifs, ands or buts - only Sentras will make it into the challenge garage.

2. Just to add a little more challenge, The car must have a 5 star rep! Believe it or not, it's actually harder in a lot of cases to get 5 stars looking good than a lower rep rating.

3. A final design rule. To keep it fair, you must use only those vinyls, decals and parts that come supplied with the game - no custom vinyls, decals, wheels, tyres or anything else please!

4. Your car must also fit with the general NFS Unlimited showroom rules - your profile name must be clearly visible etc. These rules can be found at the bottom of the main showroom page.

Aside from these, the are no other design rules. You can use any body parts, any rims and any accessories you like - whatever!!


Entering

It's important that nobody gets a head start collecting votes, so all car entries will be posted at the same time. To make this happen, all entries must be emailed to SentraChallenge@hotmail.com. Entries submitted to the showroom in the regular way will not be accepted, nor will entries pm-ed to the SentraChallenge nick. Email is the ONLY way in.

In your email, include the words 'NFSU SentraChallenge' in the subject. Also be sure and include your NFS Unlimited Showroom nick and the description you'd like posted with your car.

As entries are received, they will be checked to ensure they conform to the design rules listed above. You'll be notified by return mail if your entry breaks any of the comp rules.

When your car is accepted, a notice will be placed here to let everyone know where the comp is up to.

Once the SentraChallenge garage is full, (that's fourteen cars, not including the demo car), the competition is closed, all cars will be posted under the SentraChallenge nick with the description you specified in your email. Your showroom nick will also be put into the car description.

When they're all up, the voting can begin. To keep it fair, you must enter one car only. (Note that the car above is a demo only and will not be included in the comp).

Once the competition opens for voting, it will run for one week. The closing date will be announced here as the cars are posted. At the end of that week, the votes are tallied and the winners announced.


Voting

Hey, it's an open showroom. Anybody can vote on your car, in guest, user or both. A change from previous comps, tho - you are certainly allowed to vote for your own car if you wish. Just be aware that your vote or votes will *not* be counted into the comp rankings. Finally, you must vote all other entrants' cars and entrants must vote fairly, as if your car were not in the competition.

Edit: Note that if you do not vote for another entrant's car, I will automatically count it as a 10!!


Judging

While there aren't any real, physical prizes, all the kudos, props and accolades of your fellow modders will be rained down apon the winners.

Here's how the judging works:

3rd Place: This is the car with the highest guest vote average as of the closing date.

2nd Place: The car with the highest user vote average at the closing date.

1st Place: The car with the highest entrant vote average at the closing date. This means we average out only the votes received from the other competition entrants and score each car from those votes only.

Winners will be announced both here and on the winning cars themselves.


That's about it! Why wait - rip out that dusty old Sentra and MOD AWAY!! Have fun and good luck!

Cheers, GT :D

Great to see our esteemed hosts in there huh? Got a feeling this is gonna be the best comp so far. My advice - Get modding now and have your car in within the next day or so, or miss out!! :D
