CARiD Valentine’s Contest – Winning Entries!

A couple of weeks ago, we launched a Valentine’s Day contest in which car guys could submit a creative proof of their love for their rides. We thank all the participants for taking the time to make their entries and sending them to us. Honestly, it was not an easy task to pick the winners from so many interesting submissions! After some serious debate, the winners have been selected and contacted. Let’s check out the winning entries!

1st Place – $200 CARiD Gift Certificate

  • Bob M. of Mechanicsville, VA who wrote an essay

“muSSle Sent of to School

I usually don’t enter contests or make a fuss about my car as I’m sure there are many more people more passionate about their car than I. However, seeing this contest on ModernCamaro.com tonight was very ironic as I recently experienced an emotional, bittersweet moment for my 2010 Camaro SS.” Read the full story here

2nd Place – $100 CARiD Gift Certificate

  • Jyllisa G. of Tignish, Canada who wrote a poem and took a picture

3rd Place – $50 CARiD Gift Certificate

  • Glenn D. who sent us a pic that his daughter took

Runner-ups

Unfortunately, there could be just one winner in a competition (well, three in our case). We’d like to give special mention to three runner-ups that caught our interest the most among all the submissions.

  • Boyd S. has sent a pretty cool vid that is focused not just on a single car, but on a whole platform - the GMT355, Chevy’s Colorado and GMC’s Canyon.

  • James D. submitted his own story of falling in love with Mopar and ending up with SIX Dodge Magnums in his family garage.

  • The video we received from Bob is absolutely unique – the guys at Twisted Diesel Tuning managed to make a heart right in the EFILive Tuning tool interface. Check it out!

We’d like to once again thank you guys for participating! This contest has given us a clear evidence of a great, creative, and passionate community CARiD is a part of. We will definitely organize similar competition in the near future. Stay tuned by subscribing to CARiD Blog feed. Don’t forget to follow us on Twitter and join us on Facebook or Google+.
