We’ve Changed Up The Readers’ Choice Awards

Have you voted in our annual Readers’ Choice Awards yet? If not, click that hyperlink or the VOTE button below.

If you’re a longtime reader and voter, you’ll note that we’ve streamlined the vehicle categories. Instead of separate “Electric” and “Nitro” categories for Buggy, Truck, and On-Road, we have condensed nitro (and gas) power into one category as “Nitro / Gas Vehicle.” You can vote for any engine-powered model you like–car, truck,on-road, off-road, whatever.

While the “Nitro / Gas Vehicle” category is the only category exclusively for engine power, it’s not your only chance to vote for your favorite fuel-burning models. All the other vehicle categories (Buggy, Truck, On-Road Car) are open to your nitro-model votes, you’re not limited to electric power. 

Why the change? We wanted to liven things up and raise the stakes, so a Readers’ Choice win is more meaningful. An example: every year since it debuted, the Losi 8IGHT has won the Nitro Buggy category. If it wins the Nitro / Gas Vehicle category this year, that will mean it beat out every nitro vehicle, not just other nitro buggies. And if a nitro model wins one of the “open” vehicle categories (where I expect electric models will take all the awards), that would be a major upset. And as always, we just count the votes–the winners are determined solely by YOU.
