397-374 still holding on.
A person can vote more than once? Okie dokey. I'll vote for the best picture (YOURS) daily till it ends...
399 today (and one hundred something something previously).
If it were bikinis or crop tops or something (instead of old timey get-ups), I'd have a dilemma. Girls are usually a good add to car pics. Don't tell my wife I said that.

Another vote your way again.
I sure appreciate all the votes. Sort of hate spamming the forum for a stupid photo contest. Everyone will be sick of me by the end of the month!!
Honestly I don't know what the rules are. My wife and I vote a couple times a day from different devices. I wonder how many votes they normally get in other months. They found two guys this month that are actually trying! lol
We can just make it a FFR vs Superperformance contest!

Voted again. Good luck Scott. The vote should not be this close. Your car looks much nicer.

Thanks and I agree. At this point the contest has just gotten to be about who can talk more people into voting for their car. Really not a very legitimate contest at this point. Wish everyone could just vote one time. The funny thing is the prize is their T-shirt of the month. This month it happens to have a Cobra on it. I already ordered and paid for the T-shirt anyways! haha

I just tied you up....... 502 votes
I find it interesting that they show you the vote count.
Looks like the Magazine has picked a favorite themselves. I don't see Dave's Super Performance in their Banner Ad.

Looks like Dave is getting about 60 votes per day and now is about 60 votes ahead. WE need more voters.

While "Dave" might have a really nice Superformance, the fact remains that from a photographic perspective - and this is a photo competition after all - Scott's submission is simply the best of all the submissions. Composition, exposure, depth of field - it all works.
The competition does say it reserves the right to delete/prevent votes that appear to be spam or attempts to game the system. I would say that the only way they could do that is by logging IP addresses and if they can do that, then they should be able to easily not count resubmissions from the same IP anyway.
It's all moot. We know Scott has the best picture.

I was messaging with their guy on Instagram yesterday and he said they need to do another correction. Maybe they will wipe out some of his. No way I will win at this rate. It’s ok though. I like their magazine. Best free magazine around!! From a photographic standpoint the picture is crap though! Haha
Dave is doing a good job of soliciting votes. My wife has about 100 middle school students. Maybe I should get her to let them vote in class everyday. Lol.

The rules say there can be multiple winners so you may be chosen regardless of the vote outcome. I'm sure they would rather have your picture than the winner with robot votes.

Well certainly am not going to win first but now the magazine themselves are campaigning for me. They must not want that crap picture to win either. lol
