Lightbulb The RL Social Media Experiment: 50years.Porsche.com - - - post your 993 & vote!

Social media contests are becoming more common, & they take a LOT of votes to win.

Crazy easy idea:
When someone starts a thread about a new on-line contest, we vote for them & spread the word to friends ... then keep the cycle going for the next cool car contest.
This is cross-posted from the Events Forum, where's it's a 'sticky.' Admin/Mods can make each thread a sticky here that they decide applies to 993s, maybe limited to 1 or 2 threads 'til event(s) end.

Should encourage getting word out quickly about new contests others may enjoy.
It's easy fun: you check out car competitions while helping fellow RLers
and probably learn more about other RLers + their rides. Simple!

Specifics below...

Default Porsche's "50 Years of 911 Photo Stream Competition"

Porsche has a new on-line photo contest celebrating 50 years of the 911. To enter simply post a photo of your 993, etc.
Quick glance shows the leaders with up to 18,000 votes already

To vote just click on the heart icon: 50years.Porsche.com

"While you're in there:" I saw awesome 993s from C4SDave, pStraub, FisterD, DryFly57, uscarrera, Stealth 993, Boman993 - who else?
Consider voting Boman993 to victory - he's leading the RL pack - in this experiment to see what impact RLers can have.

With 50 years of 911s in mind, my entry features decades of 'em. From the Porsche Club of America's official Heritage/Historic display at the 2012 Parade:



Admin: Contest ends June 14.

Did you submit a Midnight Blue contest entry?

My pleasure; I'm a big fan of Midnight Blue, & yours is a natural example why.

Yeah, it's like Rennlist outside of Rennlist. We're everywhere!

Cool how 6 out of the top 7 photos are air-cooled
