    NASCAR 09 "Create an OS Car" Contest

    NASCAR 09 by EA Sports has a fantastic new feature in the ability to edit and upload your own car skins from a compatible PC graphics editor. Here at Operation Sports, we want to see what kind of talent our member base has. Thanks to Microsoft and EA Sports, we'll be giving away three Microsoft Wireless Xbox 360 Wheels to the winners, one each for the winning Sprint Cup, Nationwide, and Craftsman Truck entries!

    With that in mind, we're holding a Create-A-Car competition with the Operation Sports theme as the basis for the vehicle. Rules are as follows:
    1) All cars must use the Operation Sports default blue/gray color scheme as the base.

    2) Car should be number "09".

    3) Only the original template file, or a screen capture of the car in-game will be accepted. Screens of the skin on the car are preferred, since it can be tough to judge a design based on a flat template (not to mention the in-game shots just show off your car much better with lighting, etc)

    4) Images of your car should be submitted to [email protected] no later than Friday, July 18th, 2008 at 10PM PT. Email subject should include your forum name and the car type you're submitting (Truck, Nationwide, Sprint Cup).
    A judging panel will review the entries and choose a winner based on "realism" (a car scheme that would appear to be on a real car, not too busy or have any logos or designs that would look "out of place" on a real race track), design, and overall aesthetic appeal.

    Winners will be notified via Private Message and forum post on Sunday, July 20th, 2008.

    Get to painting, and show us what you've got!!!



    Update: Here are some OS logos to get you started.

                Quick question:

                Are we limited to only one entry?

                    actually, i was thinking, being a mod and community leader at MaddenMania (basically OS) i don't think i need to be participating in community contests. These are for all you guys who support us and keep the websites thriving.

                    That being said, i will put up the OS cars i have made, one blue and one white in my locker for download for anyone who wants one. Give me a day or two and they will be available.

                    Good luck in the contest everyone, can't wait to see what you guys come up with.

                      You have mail.

                      This is a pretty cool deal -- Props for the idea for this.

                              I figured I'd better ask this question before I finalize mine, with regards to the Blue/Grey base color is that the "Blue-Grey" color that is in the background of this logo or does that mean OS Blue "OR" OS Grey? Thanks
