Can I get your vote?

There is just one week remaining in Bell Helmet's #ThroughTheVisor video contest and as a finalist I have a good chance of winning $10k. I need every vote I can get to pull this thing off. If I do win the funds will go towards an engine rebuild on my 914-6 vintage racer.

Vote Via the Link below:

Ben Robertaccio | Through The Visor

You can vote once every 24 hours.

Oh and if you're looking for 911 content you'll find it in the video itself. Plus some 914-6 footage and brief 356 content. If I win the funds will go towards a new race engine.

Ben, I watched the video and it is very well done. You got my vote and I'll let my Porsche and other friends around know to take a look and hopefully vote! I'll also post on Facebook. Good luck!

cheers,
Michael

Ben, I voted but it really is a shame that they made the effort to vote so high! First you have to create an account on Bell's site, wait for the activation email, click the link to activate and then pick a password and then navigate to the finalists page to select the finalist to vote for, then vote! Hopefully my lazy friends are up for that!

I posted the link and this on my Facebook page, maybe it will help others copy and paste:


Ben Robertaccio | Through The Visor

All my friends - I don't know Ben but he is a fellow forum member on a Porsche forum I am active in. He is a finalist in a contest sponsored by Bell Helmets with a fantastic video he produced about his amateur Porsche racing, family and lifestyle. He'll use the winnings to buy a new racing engine. I understand it is a pain to create an account in order to vote but if you would at least watch the video maybe you'll be encouraged to cast your vote! Thanks!

You're absolutely right. They don't make it very easy to vote the first time. It's not so bad once you have the login to vote every subsequent day.

Is that legal? I would think the reason for registering is to prevent multiple votes. If not, then registration is simply a sales tool.

Thanks zippy. since you've gone through the hoops of registering to vote, feel free to vote on subsequent days this month. As per the contest rules you can vote every 24 hours.
