The Eighth Annual Tuner Battlegrounds Playoffs, presented by PASMAG and sponsored by AEM Induction Systems, Dress Up Bolts, Gram Lights and Jensen Mobile, provide automotive enthusiasts with an opportunity of a lifetime - to compete against other passionate enthusiasts in North America* for the ultimate award - the cover of PASMAG!
Seeding for the Playoffs begins immediately, and inclusion and placement in the Top 64** depends on votes earned throughout the 2020 Tuner Battlegrounds #TBGLIVE Season.
Between November 3rd and 9th, daily online voting in the Playoffs will take place to narrow the competitors to 64 in an elimination round. On November 10th, the competitors will be matched-up and battle for votes based on seeding in a single-elimination tournament until November 25th, and between November 25th and 30th, the finalists will battle head-to-head to determine the Champion in the Eighth Annual Tuner Battlegrounds Championship.
In addition to receiving the cover of PASMAG, the Champion will receive prizes from all the sponsors, including a new set of Gram Lights wheels!
New for 2020! A Donation will be made in the Champion’s name to a local food bank and the Champion will receive an exclusive trip to the 2021 SEMA Show in Las Vegas!
