A quick update and a BIG "Thank you"
A while back, I put up a post to ask for some of you guys to vote for my car on the Bosch Ultimate Ride contest. Well, the contest is over. I did win for the month of September and won a $200 gift card. So, I made it to the top 16 out of about 500 cars. The voting was as follows: 50% was the online votes, 30% for creativity and 20% for originality as voted on by Primedia judges. I was REALLY honored to make it to the top 16. So, I want to say "THANK YOU" to everyone who voted for my car.
Now for the good news...I FREAKING WON THE WHOLE THING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Grand Prize was all expenses paid for 3 days in Daytona for the 500 in February and a professional photo shoot of my car to appear in (I believe) Hot Rod Magazine to be taken in my town!!!! I think I am more excited about the photo shoot than the tickets!!!!
So, anyway, early Christmas present for me but it could not have happened without the help of everyone here who voted for me, I owe you guys a lot for helping me out and I will keep everyone up to date on the events that follow with this!

Congrats....can't wait to see it in the magazine. By the way I'd love to talk to you sometime soon about indoor shows you might know about this winter. I'd like to get my car out to a few if possible.
