Hey Guys -

Back in January I was fortunate enough to get on the cover of Hemming's Muscle Machines with "ANGRIER", the matte black 1969 Daytona clone we built. Well, I was recently notified that it was now up for Muscle Machine of the Year against some of the other beautiful rides that have also been seen in the pages of the magazine. For those you that read HMM you'll no doubt know that they generally do not publish pro-touring cars and if they do they certainly do not get on the cover, so for us this was a huge deal. 

The voting process for the Muscle Machine of the Year Candidates can be found here: http://www.hemmings.com/mmoy/ and without sounding too much like a politician, I'd love to ask you guys to throw in a vote for the Daytona, but only if you feel it deserves to win. My thought is that hopefully like the Charger's we all own, the Daytona will continue to bring more enthusiasts out of the woodwork to restore these cars in whatever manner they choose.

Thanks guys - Mike

Dunno man, the twin Boss 429s, the 427 Comet, and the convertible GT500 are pretty sweet. Whatever, I voted for you any way. :P

Done :2thumbs: I got quite a laugh on the Supercars forum when those stock muscle car guys were flippin' sh*t cause the Daytona got on the cover and HMM is supposed to be a 'stock' muscle car magazine. If you get Car of the Year, that would really show them :D

Well, I won't say I condone this but just as a test I clicked on the link again to see if it would let me vote twice.... and my assumption was correct. It appears to let the user cast a second vote.  Wanting to make sure it wasn't a fluke, I closed it out and clicked on the link again only to find the same scenario facing me which visually looked like I might possibly be able to once again select Mikey's ride and submit yet again.
Now the only problem with this is...I have OCD. SUBMIT SUBMIT SUBMIT SUBMIT

Vote everyday Guys  :2thumbs: every vote counts.

If its a site that really should have stock cars those original Boss 429s or the Camaro Z9/11 whatever it is should win. However, considering the looks of the car... they all (especially the Camaro Z9) look like a pile of.... The daytona definatelly looks way better than all of them. I wish ANGRY was in it, thats my favourite one of the 2.

Its got my vote IF I could actually vote on that thing. Its a very nice daytona

Hope the thought counts!  :cheers:

It was way out of character for HMM to put a pro-touring car on the cover back in January, so much so in fact that they got some hate mail for it. My favorite was a copy of the actual magazine cover that was sliced up with a razor blade and note that said "CANCEL MY SUBSCRIPTION!!"...

You can't please everyone I suppose.  ::)

So i wrote this Jasvascript that reloads the submit every second, would that be cheating?

Bunch of losers. I still remember 80% of the Supercar forum bitching about it being on the cover back when the issue came out. If you don't like what's in the damn magazine, write your own! ::) It's amazing how somebody actually went through the effort of cutting up the cover and mailing it to you Mike.
