Goochi, All we want to know is, in what stage is your proposal today. Is it a drivable full size vehicle or a scale model or a sketch. It could be only a concept in your head. What we're trying to avoid is a person saying thery're going to enter a finely finished model or a full size vehicle when they haven't really even started. It also gives us an advanced look at how many models, sketches or actual vehicles we will have to place in our display. The important part now is to fill out the questionaire as completely as possible and send it in so you're at least considered for the first round of judging. Hope that helps.
