Current Time to Beat: 1:07.491
As usual, we at DirtT have a capable tune by F1SH0 (best of 1:04.053 by MSNNINJA so far, Top 10 on LB). Livery is by Roo65 and Shaggy SoCal:

Shaggy already has the tune. It will be going out to Jarhead tonight as well for posting in their club garages.

You'd better get painting.........
Looks like the D2NR paint is a couple of tenths faster
Paints and tunes all sent.
Received and uploaded to East Garage.
Thanks Rocket !! Great tune F1SH0 !! Currently 1.5 sec ahead of Bounty w/o really trying. D2NR Rocks !!
Hey, I have an original Shaggy paint of this, is it eligible?

Bastard says he's going to run up to the last minute to better his time.. What a dickhead.
He's a company man guys...
How does this rival thing actually work? Everybody who have faster time than HTKenan on leaderboard will receive the unicorn?
Or do I actually have to pick him as my rival and drive faster against his ghost? If yes, how the hell I find him fast from the leaderboard?? I tried to find him from SF and add him as favorite, but didn´t find him...That´s the only way that I know to find someone fast, if there is another way, please inform!
@ Teme - you don't need to beat the actual bounty ghost, you just need to set a faster time than him before the competition closes. I usually just try to set as quick a time as a can and then check the boards to check whether I am ahead of the bounty.
Well, we´ll see how it goes...1:05.878 and I think i´ll stick with it. Or maybe I should try to beat Fitzy, his only .055 sec away from me
How much is fitzy's bounty?
Just post a time faster than his, no need to beat his specific Ghost. As long as your time is faster when the challenge closes, you win.
I haven't read any of today's posts on the Official Bounty thread, but we were in trouble the moment phRED threatened to put him in a Toyota Oh What A Feeling ad if 5,000 or more people beat him. Plus he was going back and forth with Johniwanna on the Rivals trying to beat each other. Looking at his replay yesterday, he drifts, locks up his brakes, etc. Yet he runs with no assists other than clutch. My guess is he is either sandbagging (not likely) or he's actually a talented gamer, but still a noob Forza driver. He couldn't break his own initial time of 1:07.491 with our DirtT tune (which he alluded to that he tried)?
Rocket, he wasn't using the triggers for brake/throttle, sooooo...
Current time to beat "01:06.706".
1:05.770 with this thing...( Thanks Shaggy! )

I think we put Shaggy to sleep during the building and testing of that Celica tune.
@Oldschool: I put your ghost down as someone to draft! :)
2am is about as late as I can afford to stay up during the week and even then that's pushing it. It's already 2:15 as I'm typing this post.
But it was pretty cool to get a glimpse "under the hood" to see how you guys work.
West Garage has the Celica with the DirtT tune, but I only have the copy of Roo's paint from your storefront so I couldn't upload it.
Roo did such an awesome job with the livery that it inspired me to rework a few things and here's what I've come up with.

All three are on my storefront free of charge through the end of June.
I'll post these on FM.net and try and get some sleep.
They look awesome Shaggy! I will post on the forum that they are eligible for the Side Photo Comp.
Bumped to 1:05.651...
What do you guys think it'll settle at?
Nice variations Shaggy, one looked familiar!
This has been a great event for me. After many, many laps, I've taken a track that I thought was a liability for me and turned it into a strength. I still don't know how those damn aliens at the top of the LB's do it, but I'm still extactic at running a 1:04.598. I might have another tenth in me, but I'm not sure that I want to run the 20-30 laps that it would take to get it.
Good luck to everybody at beating Kenan!
Awesome time emezmer!
Hmm looking good for me then, I'm 1:05...something and only did it cause I liked the tune so much I thought I'd better use it for what it was made for...gonna pull it out and use it again again for sure. Nice one M3Rocket
Rated of course 
Kenan says he's moving on from the DirtT TRD Celica with a 01:06.400 time. So my guess based on this is that he'll end up around 2 to 2.5 seconds off the best time of any particular tune. That puts him in the high 1:05's in the end. My guess is with either Worm's or TNT's tune.
@Knight: I think if you got into the low 1:05's, you'll be fine.
Latest Time to Beat: 1:06.4
@Oldschool. I think the green is the same, but the updates I made allowed me to use metallic and special colors for the base paint. It's the Dk Blue/Black combo. IIRC I had to use straight black. Nice lap too. I agree with M3. I don't see him running anything under 1:05.8xx. Fast enough to make it tough for us to push him into the 5000's by Tuesday, but not fast enough to discourage us from trying.
Along the same line, nice laps Knight and Emezmer!
@M3. Tell Roo I said Thank You for his willingness to work on the red version and thanks for sending me his. I'm curious to see how he made that livery.
I'll gift you the Canon car later this evening. It's actually metallic white but the lighting is so harsh at Tsukuba that it looks more silver-ish.
I also think it's about time to set my own lap and make some fredits if I can.
