    There is 8 days of voting for each decade left. The Grand prize for all decades is awarded in November.

    I swear the guy in 1st place is pulling something. Nobody get 60 votes in two hours ! :mad:

    Sorry Dennis , but He may be doing the same thing as you when you first posted this . I,m guessing he belongs to more forums then you . Thats the power of the internet I,m afraid . Best of luck . Bob

    There are other things he could be "Up to" as well.

    Do you know, if you clear your cookies can you vote again?

    You can also set up different email/user accounts and get a few votes from the same person that way.

    Not saying he is doing any of this just that if there is a dishonest way of doing things someone will always figure it out. On the other hand 60 votes is alot.

    To Texaco's credit, clearing cookies will not work. They are maitaining a database of the e-mail addresses and confirming those addresses before allowing a vote to be cast.

    Like you said, multiple e-mail addresses they cannot stop, as well as address spoofing..

    It seems like a lot of work to go through though for an artist's rendering of a car...

    Oh well,,, I'm trailing him by 16 votes right now, we shall see !!
    Thanks for the votes and your help guys !!!

    Thanks to everyone who helped us out ! Today, thanks to you guys, we are 10 votes behind with 5 days left.

    If you casted your vote our way,, Thank You.. If you have not voted yet, we would appreciate you taking a few minutes. I'm thinking another 15 should seal it..

    Muchos Gracias Amigos !!

    So I am dying to know. Is the contest over? What happened? Many of voted for your very deserving entry and I for one am curious .... Did you catch up in the end? I hope so. They were both pretty cool cars but I didn't have to think about it when I voted for yours. Let us know!!

    Thanks everyone,

    According to the "voting" I came in second. Everytime I got close, the guy ahead of me bombarded the vote with 40-50 more... ( ??? )

    Anyway, they are tabulating votes now, and it should be finalized in a week or two. But, according to unverified votes, we came in second...

    Thanks again everyone !!
