Nominations for May FOTM: They Don't LOOK Like Knock-Offs.... - Focaljet

**Ataru** · 04-10-2008, 10:27 AM

We skipped April's FOTM, so we are going into May's edition. This month we are going back with a "wheel theme". But this time instead of being the size of the wheel like in the past, we are going with the brand..........

They Don't LOOK Like Knock-Offs....

Yup......Rotas. If your Focus is currently riding on Rota wheels, then your car is eligible for this month's "Focus of the Month"!

You may nominate yourself, or someone else, but each person is limited to ONE nomination.

When nominating, please include a picture of the person you are nominating. The top 5 cars with the most nominations at the end of the nomination period will go into the final voting.

Here are the overall rules as a reminder:

Each month there will be a competition for the Focaljet, Focus of the Month. Here are the guidelines:

Must be a current active member of FJ to be considered. (Posted within the last 30 days)
Car owner or any other member may nominate the car.
Each member may nominate ONE car. Any other nominations made by that member will not be considered.
Cars to be considered for FOTM must be officially Nominated in the Nominations thread.
Each month will have a theme. Please nominate a car that fits into that theme.
Picturtes of the car should be put in the thread.
Entries will not roll over to the following month.
The 5 cars with the most nominations will go into a poll for the members to determine the winner of each month's FOTM.
FOTM will get a sticky thread for the next month all about the car and the owner AND the car featured on the main page of Focaljet.
Winners of FOTM can not be considered for future FOTM with the same car.

Nominations will end on April 17th with voting starting shortly after that.

They have to be Rota's? Or maybe another brand wheel that looks just like a more expensive wheel?

**OmniFocus** · 04-10-2008, 10:43 AM

I nominate the Bluesmobile. Not sure who to credit.... Mr. Blue or Mrs. Blue...

...but I'm relatively certain it is one of the most deafeningly hardcore daily-driven Foci on the jet.

**bigdaddyzx3** · 04-10-2008, 10:48 AM

x2 on the Bluemobile... good lord that is one hot little Focus.

Yes, they MUST be Rotas. Since so many people have them, I feel there should be a good selection.

I'll keep nominating myself until I at least reach a vote

**COCHYN** · 04-10-2008, 10:58 AM

I don't know any cars with these wheels on, so I'm guessing it'll be a relatively close contest this time because there are so few out there??? Anyway, I guess I'll vote for Bluesmobile

Maybe not in the UK, but in the States, they are used by a LOT of people.

Just do a search on here for "Rota"

**COCHYN** · 04-10-2008, 11:01 AM

Cool, will do

You don't like it, you don't have to nominate or vote.

I think it is a great category for the month.

**FORDSVTPARTS** · 04-10-2008, 11:34 AM
