Default The $10,000 Drive for 42,450 Contest!!! Details finally announced!

Welcome to PY’s largest contest ever run here on the PY Online Forums!

$10,000 in cash and prizes will be given away!

Over the past several months, there has been a lot of buzz surrounding this contest. Here is a summary of the state of the Pontiac hobby from our Administrator:

“Here's a fact that most of you are probably not aware of. Literally 90% of all the popular automotive forums were bought out by two very large investment groups over the last 10 years. Originally, most of them were all run by automotive enthusiasts….”
For the whole story, click here!

There is no doubt that we have the largest classic Pontiac gathering on the web. Let’s help each other by making this place HOME for all Pontiac enthusiasts.

You can do your part by showing them what a great place PY is and what they are missing out on by both welcoming new members and contributing. That's it!
And by doing just these two simple things, you qualify for winning some pretty darn good contest prizes.

Introducing…..

The Drive for 42,450!

Well that’s a weird number….is it? Here’s our logic.

There were 32,450 GTOs produced back in 1964. 2014 will be the 50th Anniversary of the year the greatest muscle car first roamed the streets. Add $10,000 in cash and prizes and you get our 42,450!!

It’s going to be a long cold winter for most of us. Why not stay inside, stay warm and win some cold hard cash just for participating on our Forums. It’s our way of saying “Thank You” for making this the greatest Pontiac forum out there.

Here are multiple ways to win with numerous prizes underneath:

Grand Prize: Anybody who is “Active” AND makes a post throughout the contest is entered into a lottery drawing. For every member you “refer” you get an extra lottery ticket in the drawing. Winner gets $7500 CASH! Drawing takes place when we reach 42,450 members.

Consolation Prizes:

1. The 42,450th member will receive Airfare and Hotel for 2014 PY Open House & Car Show.
2. Each new member, during this time period qualifies for a $50 UMI Products Gift Card.
3. Every week, we will draw from members who have been active and posting for a random prize drawing from list below.
4. Member with highest post count.
5. Member with the most referrals.
6. Member who posts the most in the Late Model Tech area wins $250 to GTOG8TA.com
7. “Most Helpful/Thanked” member in Late Model Tech area wins a GTO/G8 Vararam Cold Air Intake Kit.
8. Plus many more as we go along with the contest

As an added Christmas Bonus: The week before Xmas, we will randomly select one member for a PY Holiday Gift Pack ($50 gift card, Hurst Can and T-Shirt, GTO Starter Pack Kit). This member must be active and must have posted during the month of December.


Prize List:
- $7,500 Cash (Grand Prize)
- Airfare and Hotel for PY Open House
- $50 UMI Gift Cards
- $250 gift card for GTOG8TA.com
- Vintage Hurst Cans and T-Shirts
- 1968 Hurst Catalog
- MGP Custom Caliper Cover Kit (up to $340 value)
- Vararam Cold Air Intake Kit
- $50 Auto Custom Carpets Gift Card
- Boost Gauge from GlowShift Products
- $100 Pypes Gift Card
- $100 Snappin Turtle Gift Card
- Redi Rad from rediscoverradio.com
- $200 Phoenix Graphix Gift Card
- $50 Soffseal gift cards
- Free Convertible Top from Electron Top
- Many more still to come!!


Be sure to spread the word about this contest and about our Forums! Let's welcome all our new members and keep the Pontiac tradition alive so we can live another 50 years with the GTO!

So Eric if I tell "Johnny" down the street to register onto PY is he to say I sent him when he first post a hello? Can I be exempt from 2 prize(King of Prussia)?

Default Invite your friends

Plus, in an effort to make it EVEN EASIER for you to invite your Pontiac friends to join the PY Forums, we've setup an "Invite Your Friends" feature.

Once you are logged in, you can use the "Invite Your Friends" link in your UserCP or follow this link:
http://forums.maxperformanceinc.com/...?do=invitation

The feature will allow you to enter the email address and a personal message that will get emailed to your friend, along with a link to our registration page that automatically fills in your username in the referral field.

It also keeps track of the invitations you've sent. So you can see who actually joined from your invitations and who still needs more convincing.

Give it a try!!
And Good Luck to everyone!!

Steve @ Performance Years

Spread the word to your buddies that are not members.

Everyone has a chance to win, but if you "refer" more members, you have a better chance to win something....maybe $7,500!

It's only been two days and we're already seeing a jump in membership...but we've still got a ways to go. Keep it going!

Make sure you are posting this week. First prize will be given out next week.

If I won the cash you can take it over to Trick Works Chris. That should finish up my car.
