2020 Tuner Battlegrounds Playoffs
The Eigth Annual Tuner Battlegrounds Playoffs provides automotive enthusiasts with an opportunity of a lifetime - to compete against other passionate enthusiasts in North America* for the ultimate award: to be featured on the cover of PASMAG. Hundreds of enthusiastic competitors register each year but only 1 will be left standing. Seeding for the Tuner Battlegrounds Playoffs begins immediately, and inclusion and placement for the Top 64 depends on votes earned throughout the 2020 Tuner Battlegrounds #TBGLIVE Season. The #TBGLIVE competitors will be seeded 1 to 32 in relation to their total number of votes accumulated in the Tuner Battlegrounds #TBGLIVE Season, while the remaining 32 will be decided in the #WILDCARD round of Stage 1: Elimination. Between September and October weekly online voting will take place to narrow the final competitors to 2 (two), one round after another. The Top 2 competitors** in the Tuner Battlegrounds Playoffs competition receive a VIP Experience that includes, but is not limited to, flight, hotel and credentials to the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, Nevada.
