Just click on the name of the driver and another (vote) option pops up. If I recall correctly, you choose Best to make your "vote."

Re: Corvette Drivers Unite, I need your vote.
I clicked the "Rate" button (with the radio button to the far right for "Best") on my home computer and it ticked up +1 to 149
Tried to do it on my iPhone but it did not work until I turned WiFi off so it would go through the AT&T network and give me a different external ip address than my PC, and then it ticked up again.

Re: Corvette Drivers Unite, I need your vote.
I've voted and I'm sure we can move him past JC, but if it's winner take all, don't think there's much chance of catching Andrew.

Re: Corvette Drivers Unite, I need your vote.
They told me the top person wins which is not good, but this is a spot in the Super Lap Time Attack, he is very fast but his car looks like crap. Pardon my candor.Craig Naylor wrote:Tom, looks like your off to a good start.... or at least you have a larger net to toss to collect votes.

I just do not see them giving him a spot in the SEMA show to show off the car, it has no rear window, the bank bumper is missing, it is painted flat black and looks like a beat up track car.
The Octane report editor and I have gotten to be pretty good pals and he loves the way my car looks. I think I have a pretty good shot of getting invited to the SEMA Show even it the other guy gets the time attack.
All in good fun anyway.
Thanks for everyones support, I really appreciate it.
This lasts until October 23rd, so maybe the other guy will run out of steam.

Re: Corvette Drivers Unite, I need your vote.
Hmmmm, remember when Lori Robertson was competing in that online beauty contest against a bunch of very young girls and one of us had the "skills" to, ah, enhance the voting process......................
P.S. Not that Lori didn't have the beauty to win, she also had the driving skills and personality the others didn't. Just seemed like one of the others was getting votes at an outrageous rate so we had to compensate.
