Default Help me win best photo in a local newspaper!

What's up guys, so back in august when we had a slew of tropical storms roll through a couple of our streets flooded and we decided to do a little behind the truck wakeboarding. I know, no helmet and pavement = head trauma but we did it anyway. So we wound up shooting a few pictures and sent it in to the local paper and as it turns out the photo is in a contest for photo of the year! we currently have a little over one hundred votes, but we need a little over 300 to take the lead.

If it's possible I would love if a few fellow car guys could put a vote in for me. Even though it's not a car picture. THANKS!

Here's the link to vote

If you scroll halfway down the page you will see this image



Thanks Again!

Sorry bro, but I didn't vote for you. I couldn't rig a contest so I chose honestly. I voted for the lily in the pond. My second choice was "Nice Catch."

I can't believe the kitty one is winning too! I bet it's some female teenager who posted a "Vote for me!" link in her myspace page. See? It's not fair and I would rather win because I was the best rather than having a contest rigged. That's jus' me though.
