Calvinator VS Sofa

For the record I literally spent 3 minutes deliberating for E30 M3 vs Cappucino.

Some of my choices are not internally consistent.

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that is fine.

Truth be told, I was expecting the Charade to take a more pronounced beatdown against the P4. Y’know, considering the beauty and sheer racing prowless
 But both it and the March are bound to meet their maker.

Well, guess both my entries will be done in by mid-engined Italians with gracious racing backgrounds. That oughta get bonus points for consistency?

Better than both my entries being done in by JDM fanboys, frankly.

JDM fanboys voting for various generations of the Skyline, at that come on people show some class :joy:

You say that, but the Furai is catching up to Mr. Tekkaman
 It might be too early to sell the Furai short, I’d reckon.

And this may be a silver lining, but only one Skyline has survived the generation purge. The R33 got destroyed by the 106 (when was the last time you heard that one? :joy:), the R34 is on his way to a loss against the A110 (Bayside Blue » Mountain Blue, it seems)


The R30 is still struggling, but the Furai may finally complete the second half of its phoenix cicle! :thinking:

I mean ok I give the skyline credit where it’s due.

However I’m just a bit non-plussed that three generations made it in and nobody bothered to put in any RX-7s or Supras. I mean we only had 45 contributors but, really!?

Now that you mention it yes, that is a bit daft. I’d gladly trade the R33 for a Supra or an RX-7. Considering the presence of the NSX and the 3000GTO, it becomes even stranger.

Even the Trueno made it in because of Initial D(aft Memes), so why didn’t we see an FD or an FC on the same wavelength?

also technically it’s four generations of the skyline because dr30/r32/r33/r34 but we shall not get bogged down by mere details

And for all the people who go on about rotaries, where’s the 787B??? ??? ?? ?? ?? ? ? ? ?? ?? ? ???

Anyway it’s not like it was easy picking just two cars. Probably just a coincidence. Wonder what would have been if we got to pick four.

Now now, let’s not give Kubboz any ideas, you madman.

I mean sure, it would make choosing the cars a bit easier, but bearing four times the possible losses? Not even the world’s entire stock of Vicodin can cure that much heartache!

Hoo boy. That would take a long time to settle.

Fun fact: With the free version of Challonge, we’d be able to do up to 5 cars per submittor, given the number of them stayed the same. (Up to 256 submissions total.)

3.5 CSL was a good choice, but I wouldn’t expect the 911R to lose so easily


Look at that! We are about to determine the first 4 cars to go into the main bracket quarter finals.

Not only that, but the loser bracket cars you’ve advanced in the Monday polls are up against vehicles you’ve just knocked off the main bracket. Ain’t that swell?

What is going on?Cars have different pictures and names.For example poll 4.

Sorry about that. I’m a tad tired. Had to reset the votes for the thing to allow me to edit, so if you’ve voted already, please do so again, alright?
