About 30 or so votes yet to come in based on past BOTMCs.........could get closer

For once, I will resist viewing the results before I vote... and I will vote the very last day

(you can send donations my way)

But quite a few worthy contenders this time!

Private note to RC10th: if you decide to sell that mid-motored 10(G)T, I'm game... I think I just fell in love again...

How can you view the results before you vote??
