July 13, 2008 vDream Prize Winners of the Week!

12:21pm by Lijen (Site)

Here are this week’s vDream Prize Winners!

Most Active User of the week – Danny Mohammad, with 345 Activity Points. I didn’t even know that was possible. He maxed out on Sent Challenges every day, and maxed out on Invites every day. He must be a rich man. Now he’ll be $5000 vDollars richer. I guess they were right when they said the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

Biggest Loser of the week – Ryan Helvey, with 99 losses. Hang in there, buddy! Your consolation prize for all that tire smoke you inhaled from other cars, is a cool $5000 vDollars.

In light of the recent car release, this week’s cars of the week will focus on some cool mustangs we found on vDream!

1. Dinesh Ayyappan – I love the Blue/White motif. It reminds me a little of optimus prime.
2. Bryan Fong – The fact that you’re the only person on vDream who chose that color means something. I don’t know what it is though.
3. Antonio Rodriguez – pimping a sweet Silver Mustang – it looks fast.

July 12, 2008 Premier Customer Appreciation Day

A few months ago, team VDream was invited to hang out @ Premier Mobile Groups customer appreciation day. Premier is by far the best protective film application company in the bay. Pretty much every exotic car owner makes the trek down to Fremont to get their cars wrapped before driving them on a regular basis. This of course includes team VDream and our kick ass Audi R8! Here are some photos from the event for you guys to enjoy.

So you just joined and really really want to get that new supercharger kit to boost your hp and torque, but just don’t have the funds… You’ve maxed out your challenges for the day and there’s still nothing you can do! How can you quickly make that extra $5K so you can start kicking some @$$?

The easiest and fastest way to make money on vDream is by inviting your friends to join the app! You currently receive $400 for each invitation that you simply send, and an addition $800 on top of that for each invitation that gets accepted.
