Don't forget that you decide the winners in each of the HEMI Awards categories. Click on the panel on the far right side of this website to cast your votes online (you may vote online once every 24 hours) or submit your ballots via email by sending your choices to jack@americanahighway.com (again you can vote this way once per email address per 24 hour period).

The 2006 Americana Highway HEMI Awards will reveal the winners during a special broadcast on Sunday night, September 24, 2006. As you probably already know, you can view the current leaders in the online portion of the voting by clicking the "View" button on each individual category poll. We have the email tallies under wraps, however, to help preserve a bit of the mystery over who the winners will be. And, unless your bribe us with chocolate and nylons, we're not going to squawk! To find out who the winners are in this our very first HEMI Awards competition, please tune into WIVK 107.7 fm out of Knoxville, TN on Sunday night, September 24, 2006...or via realtime streaming at www.wivk.com (registration required)...or you can listen to the show via our podcast at the "Listen On Line" section on the right hand panel of this website.
.
The voting in most of the categories is very, very close. So we encourage you to vote for all your favorite and tell all your friends to vote as well. And thanks for making the 2006 HEMI Awards a blast!
