We wanted to give people who may not have a smart phones and those that can not attend a chance to vote as I said in the other thread if you are going to the show wait to vote till you are at the show as many of the cars have changed appearance

You need like a money counting machine, but like for tickets!


Or do it like those ticket arcades........ you can also get a scale and weight it. I wouldn't mind helping you do that if that becomes a reality in the future events.

For the record, I was correct. If there was a real GF8 in the car show, it would have won.

Matt tried something new this year because last year it was a major PITA to sit there and hand count everything.

We had some technical difficulties this year with the ip block working on some folks and not on others.... i.e. people with iphones.

So instead of being honorable people just vote blasted one car. We noticed there were nearly 10 times as many votes as people and it was coming out way biased. So we stepped in and voted in person.

We put together a panel of judges including Mods, organization members and old school members that know a thing or two about cars.

In the process we eliminated 2 cars that were high in votes, one of them would have got my vote for a category win... it did actually.

We then as a group went around and did the best we could to pick who won what and I think some damn nice cars won.

there were a lot of cars that were considered and yours did get a vote or two.

We'll work on a new system next year.
