Hi Cowspots: instructions in post 1 of this thread. Sorry, but you would have to go back in time to before 11:59:59 PST on December 3 to enter.

---

PRIZES:

First, the minor mystery prize referred to in post 1 is an EcoModder window decal for anyone who started a new thread in the forum yesterday (during the time window stated in post 1).



Claiming the decal is up to the individual qualifying members. Send me a private message with a link to the thread you started, along with your name & mailing address.

We'll figure out the MPGuino and ScanGauge prizes this afternoon and post the winners later today.

Aw shucks! I wanted to start two yesterday, had them all written up, but had them on the other computer and posted both today. Oh well, it's only 364 days until Dec.3 2010

Winners of the MPGuino and ScanGauge-II posted. (See post #1, and PM me your names/addresses.)

Thanks to everyone who "played" - it was particularly fun to see lurkers & first time posters coming out of the woodwork for the chance to win something, and a good way to celebrate the big day.

We'll probably do something like this again ... before we turn 3.

Happy Birthday, Ecomodder.

I consider Ecomodder the definitive source of information on efficiency-minded automotive customization, and a great resource for car aerodynamics. It's surprising how often ecomodder.com comes up when I do a Google search.
