2018 Tuner Battlegrounds Playoffs

The Sixth Annual Tuner Battlegrounds Playoffs provide automotive enthusiasts with an opportunity of a lifetime - to compete against other passionate enthusiasts in North America* for the ultimate award: A PASMAG COVER FEATURE! Hundreds of automotive enthusiasts register each year but only 1 (one) will be left standing. Seeding for the Sixth Annual Tuner Battlegrounds Playoffs begins immediately, and inclusion and placement in the Top 64 depends on votes earned throughout the 2018 Tuner Battlegrounds #TBGLIVE Season. Between September 4 and October 15, 2018 weekly online voting in the Sixth Annual Tuner Battlegrounds Playoffs will take place to narrow the final competitors to 2 (two), one round (Stage) after another. The Top 2 competitors in the Sixth Annual Tuner Battlegrounds Playoffs receive a VIP Experience that includes flight, hotel and credentials to the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, Nevada. In addition to the exclusive VIP Experience, the Top 2 competitors will have their vehicles shipped and displayed in the PASMAG Tuner Battlegrounds booth at SEMA and compete for the cover of PASMAG!
