Cool, a little weather never stopped anyone.

Thank you. Sorry I missed your call. I have to call a couple vendor type folks on my way home but if I finish in time I'll drop you a line tonight.

Glad you liked them. I basically was like "Hmmm, what would I want to win if I had more tickets, this, this, yep this too...". I even gave you guys first shot at singly shipped apparel I actually might have wanted for myself any other time.

So just to confirm, I already registered the Wife and I for ourselves, the Vendor Deal will be the Parts Manager and a Salesperson, plus one or two cars. I'm not sure which one's we wanna pick out just yet.

I know having a WRX or STi is a given, suggestions on what the other one should be are welcome.

Just curious about the shortblock - what if someone wins who either already has a built motor or someone who has no intention of gettin a new motor, likesomeone with a 2013 wrx for example?

Or someone who attends, buys raffle tickets but doesn't own a subaru? Friend, relative, etc

Maybe there should be a 2nd raffle for the motor? That way only people who want it buy tickets?

Just a few thoughts

*Sorry if this sounds blunt.*

Ppppsssssshhhhh. So what if you have to go find a $9000 dollar car to put it in. Heck, I want that engine myself. Even if "my kid" wins it, it's going into a project. I got no problem possibly winning something. Heck if anyone who doesn't have a Subaru wins it I'll make them buy one. Why else would they be coming in the first place, right?

It's Charity, not a shopping adventure. (Says the guy who threw out $200 on tickets @ the Tracy Toyota Meet while everyone shook their heads. I ended up walking away with those Rigid Industry Floods and a bunch of other prizes.)

If you want better odds fork over for more tickets. Someone with one ticket should have the same chance of winning it.


This is a friend/family/forum event for charity. We Don't Do Exclusions on this sort of thing IMHO.


Heck, I hope Nathan wins it!!

Agreed, if the motor is to be separate, then most people might only buy raffle tickets for the motor. And if it was me, I'd make the motor raffle twice as expensive as the regular raffle.

So, let's say someone just forked out 30k for a brand new wrx/sti with a warranty..they then have to buy another car to use the motor? That's absurd

There's gotta be a way to make sure someone will win the motor who actually can use it, otherwise its going to be exactly like last time where it gets passed around and nothing comes of it

I've got no problem with double price 2nd raffle for the motor...id buy tickets for both raffles...

Why not just not claim it... Give someone who wants it an opportunity to win it
