pete4winds Posted July 3, 2010 Author Share Posted July 3, 2010 ^ The top 10 cars from each category will go on to the next round of voting, but the number of votes is only part of it. Ultimately, the votes are one of five criteria that judges will look at to determine those top 10 cars. My car is only elegible to receive votes for another 3 days, but you're right...second is a pretty good place to be. If my car can stay high in the rankings through Sept. 6th, it has a good shot at moving on. That top car is one of three "official" cars that were created by Toyota Racing itself to promote this contest, so I don't even know if it'll be included in the judging. On the face of it, it does seem like cheating, but I'm not worried about it. I think it has so many votes because people see the commercials on TV and automatically vote for those cars that are shown in the ads. In any case, by all means keep coming back and voting for Ceilidh's car. I certainly do! As always, thanks everyone for all your support! I'll keep you posted.

Six Flags Enthuseast Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 I just voted. I'm a NASCAR fan, and I've seen this advertised a lot, so I'm glad I can help participate in this for a good cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete4winds Posted July 5, 2010 Author Share Posted July 5, 2010 (edited) ^ The car's only eligible for voting for one more day, but thanks for the suggestion anyway. And thank you VERY much for the votes! Edited September 11, 2010 by pete4winds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete4winds Posted July 5, 2010 Author Share Posted July 5, 2010 "Our" car's 15 days of voting eligibility are over, so I wanted to THANK YOU all for all your support. Cars can still be entered until Aug. 20th, and each car entered gets the same 15 days of voting until Sept. 6th - semi-finalist selection is announced on Sept. 13th, so it'll still be a nail-biter waiting to see if we can hold onto our position. Either way, thank you again for all your support! If we make the top 10, the car will be eligible for a second round of voting to determine finalists, and eventually a third and final round to determine a winner. Again, I'll keep everyone informed of our car's status! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete4winds Posted September 11, 2010 Author Share Posted September 11, 2010 Hey gang, I wanted to thank everyone for their votes during the eligibility period for my daughter Ceilidh's memorial car, and to let everyone know that first-round voting ended 5 days ago with our car keeping its top-ten spot! That means that unless the judges disqualify it for whatever reason (doubtful), we'll be a GO for round two. By making the semi-finals, I'll receive an autographed 8X10 glossy of the car, which I WILL scan and post (after all, this car belongs to all of us, in my opinion). Thank you all again, and when semi-final voting opens, I'll let everyone know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterguy4 Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 That news makes me very happy! I will be sure to vote as much as I can once again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggernel Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 What a great way to honor her. I'm sure this would be really special to win. I be she is looking down and smiling at the awesome support from this community. I Wish I would have found out about this sooner, as I would have been able to tell everyone I know. Good luck in the next round, I'll be voting daily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete4winds Posted September 13, 2010 Author Share Posted September 13, 2010 Hopefully I'll know by midnight tonight (EDT) whether Ceilidh's memorial car is officially in the running, and if so, voting starts tomorrow and runs for 10 days. I'll keep everyone posted! Thanks as always for the support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterguy4 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 ^ I suggested this last round, but maybe you could PM a mod or Robb and get this put in the main forum. It is worth a shot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete4winds Posted September 14, 2010 Author Share Posted September 14, 2010 http://www.sponsafier.com/#/gallery/view/287971 Voting is reopened for the memorial NASCAR race car I designed for my daughter Ceilidh, and goes for 10 days. Let's make this happen! Thank you for all the support so far (I can;t say that enough), and thanks in advance for the new votes. Remember, you can vote once a day EVERY day. I've already cast mine, but I'm up against some pretty strong cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
