Exclamation Win a superstar-signed Tshirt !

Put that 'vanish' away, you cant get this pen out so don't even think about it.

Here we have a little competition for our forum members (wherever you live) to win THE LAST one-tenth off road Tshirt I have, it's Chestnut colour (brown) and Large size. This is special though since its signed by some of the biggest names in European off road (and even touring!)




The Shirt is signed by - from memory:

Paul Bradby (Worlds A Finalist)
Simon Moss
Chris Doughty (former European Champion)
Mick Doughty (mechanic to above)
Craig Drescher (Won everything)
Ellis Stafford (former european champion)
Richard Barton
Tom Yardy
Richard Taylor (Current 4wd National champion)
Bill Taylor ! (mechanic to above)
Neil Cragg (current 2wd world champion, 2wd national champion 2006)
Darren Bloomfield
Richard Cree
Lee Martin
Danny McGee

Phew - note: If i got any of that wrong, please forgive me, I had my team of oOplettes running around getting signatures.

-

The Competition part ??
Ok, this isn't a "tell me how ace I am" thing, but I want you to pick your favourite photo on oOple from this years BRCA National series and say what you liked about the image.
There are no "right answers", there is no correct image or reason, just post away and I'll pick a deserving winner (or me and vicky will) in a couple of weeks. The shirt will be posted wherever the winner may be, worldwide, with some oOple stickers of course

the nationals in question are:

\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
To post your "entry", please either select your favourite image and copy the URL at the top (the photo page) or you can copy the actual photo image URL and post the photo in-line into the thread along with what you like about it.

so you will end up with something like this:

[Image]
I like this image because... blah. its crap.


OR

[Link to image]
I like this image because... blah. its crap.


Rules: There are none really, just limit yourself to one entry in this thread. remember there isn't a correct answer, just say what you think.
please note, the shirt is brand new and the last of its kind anywhere, it will be pressed before being sent out since it got a little creased whilst being signed.

I like this one, cos Jimmy's (white socks) trolleyed in it, plus you can see how my jeans are still wet through from marshalling in the rain, despite having been nowhere near the track for a good 5 hours.......

Inevitably Dan had to appear in this competition. I like this photo because it is just mad, and Dan is representing all the other men that used the ladies toilet at Kiddy over the national weekend!

I love this image, its just amazing. It shows the high speed and movement of the car well, and has an amzing depth of feild, making the car stand out even more. I also love the quality and clarity, and its a B4 A true 'dynamic' and text book picture

I so wish you'd have allowed pictures from last year too.



This sums up how my season ended in the hands of Mr Round.

Yay, that one. Or the one with a XX down Grahams pants and I'm insinuating he's got a small nob (Julie told me).

it would have to be this photo as i got quite annoyed with this person as i came to lap and wouldnt let me past so i nailed him on the jump. the moment jimmy's expertise (can't spell) in photography took the photo i am directly above and followed on by landing just in front of him and got away with out going on my roof. LOL

I think this one http://www.oople.com/rc/photos/telfo...ord2wd054.html just says it all about racing in Britain....

I think all Jimmy’s photos are awesome but for me this one is the best, check out the light and stuff all shots at Tivy look ace, love the dark brown background colour, cars look ace on it.



Also all the people that have signed the t-Shirt are my hero’s and I could do with a new t-shirt so can I win please… ta :smile:
