Lightbulb The RL Social Media Experiment: 50years.Porsche.com - - - - post your 996 & 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 it's a 'sticky thread.'

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 just post a photo of your 996, etc.
Quick glance shows the leaders with up to 18,000 votes already

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

I saw (older) 911s from RLers 911Jetta, C4SDave, pStraub, FisterD, DryFly57, uscarrera, Stealth 993, Boman993.
I noticed Freakhead posted his water-cooled 911 - who else has posted their 996?
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:



Contest ends June 14.

Have you uploaded your '03 C4S, or found other RLers' submissions?

Default Last Day; PLEASE VOTE!

On May 27, 2012, the Editor of the world’s largest circulation Porsche magazine commissioned my 911 for a photo feature - shot June 2, 2012.
Today, the new Editor confirmed he has no plans to publish her photo shoot.


Help make lemonade out of lemons:
Click here to vote “Speedy” into a 3rd place finish or better. The prize: a photo-shoot by the world Porsche headquarters, Porsche AG.

I have RLers to thank for my 911 currently being one of Porsche.com's Top 10 most popular 911s in the world. Please vote her into the top 3, and I’ll owe all of RL a party!

Per Porsche's Terms & Conditions, their competition ends today (Friday) at 7 PM.
