Attention Forza Motorsports 3 owners, and car design artist...


If you are interested in designing the ultimate SimHQ themed car in Forza Motorsports 3, you could win another Xbox 360... for a family member, for a fan, for a friend, or for yourself.


How it works:

You take any car you want in the 300 plus collection of cars in the Forza Motorsports 3 video game and you design a SimHQ car that instills what SimHQ is to our community, not just racing games. This car should represent SimHQ, should advertise SimHQ, and should show SimHQ in a great light.


You gift your car to me, Magnum SimHQ, I then will test it, look at it, and post screens of it. (please do not post screens yourself, that could sway the voting). I will then put up a poll for 1 week, and the car that gets the most votes will win the prize.


Now don't just think I'm keeping all the cars, if your car does NOT come in the top three of the poll, you can request your car back and I will gift it back. BUT, the top three cars will become property of SimHQ, (meaning ME in this case), but don't worry... your cars will be gifted to winners of racing events that will be coming after the new year. (So make your cars with this in mind).


Now I would prefer to give you guys plenty of time to design this ultimate SimHQ car, but I want to declare a winner before Christmas so the winner will get the Xbox 360 before Christmas, in case they want to gift it to someone.


SO, all car submissions MUST be gifted to me by 12/15/09 at NOON EASTERN.


Please note that this is not an official SimHQ contest, and the owner/operator holds no liability for this contest. SimHQ also holds no liability. This contest is hosted by me, (Magnum) for SimHQ, and the Xbox 360 is a working, refurbished Xbox 360 with a 20GB harddrive and a wireless controller. (already in my possession). Also, due to customs and postal inspections, and I think they don't work overseas... this contest can only be for US residences. You can still submit, but I can't ship the prize out of the US.

So car designers... lets see what you got!

118 views... sure hope someone is working on something, but I understand if you don't want to let it known...yet. lol

If I could paint, I would submit a car.

Anyone want to paint my car for this comp? I'm finalizing the tune.

BTW you can't lock yourt car design, otherwise I can't re-gift it to the winner of our race series/season... at least I think thats how it works... ?

Cars are automatically locked when you put them on the market, I don't know about gifting.

That was my problem is I had a sweet car done but after I spend hours on it picking out decals from the marketplace I discovered you can't gift cars with art you didn't paint yourself....Oh well.

I can understand the reasoning... but the designers should have the options to leave thier work open for modding, trading, and use... IMO.

Yeah, I agree. I don't know why they took that option away.

10 days left folks and only one entry... I hope my 2010 season plan has a better showing then a free Xbox 360 design contest.

I just found out about this.

I am preparing a car feverishly!!

A few questions if I may, I am assuming performance matters? Like does it need to be tuned properly.

Also, can I send more than one car? I have a few designs in mind that I'd like to try out.
