UPDATE
Just got back to me on my first e-mail containing all the pictures I had up until this morning.
Out of all the ones I sent, only about 16 were chosen for consideration. A lot of very clean cars are not being considered due to being too light or too dark, because they would not work with the camera.
I will PM the members who are being taken for consideration tomorrow.
There are two options
a. Background show car. Your car just sits in the background, and you will likely just hang out in the crowd watching the races. This will pay $300-400 depending on how many cars show up.
b. Race Car. If you want to give them permission to race your car, and during filming they choose your car, they will pay $1000. YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS. But, if you want to let someone dirve your car, it is a professional stunt driver, and it will be fully insured, if anything happens to your car, they are responsible and will pay for the damages. If you volunteer to let them use your car, it isn't garunteed they will, and you will only get $1000 if they call on you, if not you will get the 300-400 like everyone else.
ALSO
Filming should take only one day, but might stretch to two. Tomorrow is when they are organizing and will determine what day/hours they will shoot on.
This was from the e-mail I recieved from the props guy

Great selection, unfortunately we can't take white cars we have two already and they're not good for camera light.
If you can find out about 1,5,7,11,14,15,18,21,24,28,30,31,33,34,37,41 and get a name and number for me.
Please find out which ones we can rent for racing and which for background only?
We want the cool paint jobs, spoilers/wings, brighter colors, body lighting, super sound systems/boxes...anything that oozes street rod/drifter.
If we race it it's 1000.00 and for background it'll be about 300-400 depending on the number of cars and types.

I talked to him on the phone, he is also looking for crazy sound systems, any pics would be great.
I will send this update to all the members who are being considered, though only 5-6 will be called to come out from the forum, as they have contacted people elsewhere to appear already.
Please notify me if you prefer background, or want a chance to have your car raced.
Any questions, PM me.
Sorry for those of you who did not get chosen, everyone had really clean, good looking cars, obviously they have in mind exaclty what they are looking for.
P.S, e-mails/pictures I recieve today will be sent tonight, and I will get back to you guys tomorrow about them.
Thanks
