Who Brought the Coolest Car to the UTCC?

Who brought the coolest car to the 2015 Tire Rack Ultimate Track Car Challenge this past July? It's totally up to you. You read about each one in the Novemeber issue of Grassroots Motorsports. And now all 51 entrants are facing off head-to-head in bracket format. Click the link and vote for your fa…

I'm a little confused; For many of the matches the car has a bye, in other words, it is unopposed. Yet it's possible to vote against these cars. Or are all votes applied to a car that gets a bye?

Does the Mustang get 6 or 8 votes?

I got quite of few of those too.

Yes, the cars that are unopposed get a "bye" for the first round. Unfortunately, the bracket program I used can't force a bye pick. That means that it is possible to vote for nobody. However, if by some series of jokesters, a "bye" car gets out-voted by a blank space, I can still manually push them through to the next round.

Racers just love a fuzzy rule set.

Some tough brackets... hard to choose.

There are at least 15 of us that love a white box.

I'm good with many colors.

Ed, this is pretty silly. Voting hot or not style: a car VS a white box. :-/

Some of the images take forever to load. Are the thumbnails all the same resolution?

Only 15 Jokesters? I would expect more from this crowd...

I figured it was just not showing a car and voted for the box :)

Cool idea, but like others said, there is a HUGE problem with some of the pictures loading glacially slow. Slow enough that I'd just vote for the car that loads faster because faster is better when it comes to track cars.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I'll see if I can solve that loading issue.

Alright. In theory, the images should load much faster now. Sorry about that.

white box > GTR

I'm sure most people of my cars would lose to a blank box.

Dodge Stealth?

I'm really impressed by all the invisible cars that were entered. Those definitely get my vote every time.

Even though it's you guys and I trust you implicitly, I always have a negative knee-jerk reaction when someone asks me for my e-mail address. It'd be more welcoming if we used our user names.

And round 2 has begun.

I had to work to avoid being influenced by the votes already cast. To either bandwagon the popular choice or a pity vote for something which is clearly unpopular.

Submitted again. Pictures load much better now.

Would it be possible to hide the current vote tally for each car? I feel like that influences people's choices in some way.

In reply to unevolved:

I can totally do that. Glad the image issue got fixed.

And we're into the sweet 16.
