If your dreams of NCAA basketball bracket glory have been dashed — along with a chance to take Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine’s BMW i8 off his hands — by a bracket that’s been busted beyond repair (thanks UMBC, though we got a kick out of your Twitter posts), take heart: Have we got something for you! Or maybe you care more about cars than hoops — that works, too.

Our Cars Madness bracket challenge pits 16 popular models — four sedans, four sports cars, four SUVs and four pickup trucks — in a series of head-to-head matchups where you, dear readers, will determine which one moves on to the next round. We’re letting you stuff the ballot box here; you can vote once a day while the round is open, so check back often to see how your favorites are faring.

If you’re thinking, “What’s in it for me?” we’ve got you covered. We’re giving away 50 Amazon gift cards for $50 apiece in a random drawing after the winner has been decided — and each time you vote is an entry to win.

So head over to the Cars Madness page and start making your picks. Don’t be slow, though; the first round closes on March 23.

Good luck!
