Here`s something kinda fun for you guys. We`re working on a new site and some new media projects where we needs pics, LOTS of em! So what better way to get them than a contest? :)
This is what we`re looking for: Pics that show various different aspects of suspension, handling and general muscle car/handling performance. That means pics of suspension parts, pics of suspension assembly, pics of chassis, pics of wheel and tire fittment, pics of semi and fully finished cars,pics of cool parts,pics of cars on track demonstrating good handling, pics of cars on track demonstrating lousy handling too. This includes ALL BRANDS OF PARTS AND CARS (okay, not Hondas and stuff :P ), subframes, A arms, coil overs,Fords, Mopar, GM etc. from 1901 to 1990. All pics must be big and clear with decent lighting etc. Hi-Res is best but they don`t have to be. Remember this contest if for the best pics that showcase performance suspension, not for the trickest car. We`ll accept them as zip. files, on thumb drives or CD. To enter send us an e mail at
[email protected] with the title "SC&C Photo Contest Entry" and we`ll send you a release form. Then just get your pics together and send them in. The contest deadline is Dec. 5th. Winners will be announced on Dec.12th.
So what do you win? We`ll be picking 1st, 2nd,3rd and two honorable mentions.
1st Place gets $500 in SC&C Bucks redeemable for anything on the site.
2nd Place gets $250 in SC&C Bucks and
3rd Place gets $100 in SC&C Bucks.
1st Place will have one of their pics featured on our new SC&C T-shirts and all 3 places will recieve a new SC&C T-shirt, have their car and pics prominently featured on our upcoming new site AND they will be published in print as well! Where? I`ll tell you after SEMA, but it ain`t just a one month magazine thing! Your name will also appear in print with any pics that are published. Any non winning pics that we use in print or on the site will also give credit to the person who submitted it.
Contest begins Oct. 19th. Have at it !!! Mark SC&C

Certainly they qualify! Nice fabbed suspension BTW. Enter whatever pics you have of it including "before" pics of the stock suspension if you have them. A tech sheet would be great too. We don`t have a lot of Falcon pics. We`ll even accept Fox body Mustang and 3rd Gen F body pics. Mark SC&C

Hey Bryce, I resent the release form. If you don`t get it this time give us a call at 610-346-8154 and we`ll get it to you one way or another. ;) We`ve gotten some really awesome pics so far! But remember, they only count after we get the release form back. We have a bunch of people who haven`t gotten the forms back to us yet. Without that,we can`t use the pics. Keep the pics coming guys!!! Mark SC&C

i guess if i had money to buy your suspension products i could enter a pic :( sigh. how about one of a poor designed stock suspension that ultimately led me into a tree? Which i guess you could say would be a good reason to update from the stock suspension?

Barely doing 40 around a turn:

After installing my new parts from SC&C
Doing about 80 in Turn 1 at Sebring!

Nice & flat through another turn at Sebring

Great pics guys! Send them in to
[email protected] and we`ll send you a form to enter.
Goatman, you may have a winner there! I want to emphasize that although we love pics of the parst we sell, this contest is open to EVERYONE and we want pics of stock parts as well as aftermarket parts. A picture of a nice Goat wrapped around a tree might just convince someone to take the plunge and improve their car before it happens to them! :idea: Mark SC&C

These are just a couple of an all day photoshoot of the car. Here is a nice one
https://static1.pt-content.com/images/pt/2009/11/gto31-1.jpg
And one of the last picture I was wanting to take. The ide was to continue the burnout past the photographer and another picture could be taken after i had past.
https://static1.pt-content.com/images/pt/2009/11/gto271-1.jpg
Unfortunately very poorly working factory drum brakes all around, along with a ton of body roll, and a heavy foot that really wanted the picture ended here.
https://static1.pt-content.com/images/pt/2009/11/gto28-1.jpg
I definitely feel a good suspension and brakes would have avoided this, but it was still entirely my fault. I have slowly started gathering parts, starting with a frame, Frame boxing kit, and an A-pillar. now i'm out of money and it will be getting a whole bunch of goodies from Marcus at SC&C. I already know exactly what i want:yum:

Just kidding.
I know what it's like to total out a car you worked hard for. I College, I owned Shelby Charger GLHS #664 all of a month before it was introduced to a drunk driver's rear bumper.

Goatman, bummer about your GTO. That sucks, but... send us all those pics! It might get you $500 closer to a new suspension. :)
We`re still not getting very many Mustang and Mopar pics. C`mon guys, show your stuff off! We carry a lot of cool parts for these cars too if you win! Mark SC&C

sure will! i could really use it, a frame off when i'm 21 was not what i was planning at all lol. Also i did send pics to you before but did not get a release form so I'm not sure if you ever got the pics. It could also be that i sent it to the wrong Email i don't know. Thanks!

No, we didn`t forget about it! We just have a TON of pics to go over and judge. I asked for all the pics you had and I think some of the CDs we got had every car pic the entrant ever took of any car in their whole life! Ha ha! :) It`s taking a lot longer than I thought but there are some awesome pics and it`s a lot of fun checking them all out. We should have our winners picked in the next week or so. Mark SC&C

First off I want to appologize to everyone for dropping the ball on this contest announcement and thread! Sorry guys! :) I`ve been running myself ragged for the last few months between business, other obligations and finishing my new book for Cartech Publishing. Now that it`s 99% out of the way you`ll see a lot more of me around here and a lot of cool new stuff going on at the website too!
Thanks to everyone who entered. Keep and eye out for my book, many of you made it in! The winners were picked according to how well they fit the "suspension and how it works" theme as well as for the look and quality of the photos. There was no limit to the number of photos entered and the 1st place winner entered several GIGs of pics! There were tons of great pics from shop pics to racing pics to glamour shots, and of a wide variety of cars. Really outstanding. You`ll see quite a few of them in the book. Look for a lot of new pics from all 3 winners as well as other exceptional entries as we redo the website.
1st place: Tad Banzuelo :1st:
2nd place: John Follweiler
3rd place: Steve Johnston
Congratulations guys!!! I guess we better get busy on those new T shirts. :)
