Stay tuned for more details on the 2018 Wounded Warrior raffle! It will take place at the Battle of the Colonies at Port Jeff on 8/4/18.

 

This time around we have a Tony P lightweight Flying V weighing 100.8 with the lead. West coast friends can remove it and be around 90 grams. Has Bud fronts and JK small hub wonders. A left over RP9 motor geared 9/27. A C/R pinned RF guide. Tested and VERY good.

Let us know when to buy tickets!! Always willing to put up for a good cause!! Nice ride!!

[John Streisguth]

Ok, time to open up ticket sales.  After all, we only have 5 weeks  LOL

 

To make things a little simpler, tickets will be $5 each, or 5 for $20.   So you can buy a single ticket if you so desire.  Odds are the same as past years, just less actual tickets (conservation of natural resources and all that LOL)

 

As in years past, you can paypal to johnnyvw164@gmail.com.  Send as money to a friend, and PLEASE do not put anything in the notes, period!  I will acknowledge receipt of all payments as quickly as I can.  If for some reason a few days go by and you do not get an acknowledgement, send me a PM and I'll check as to whether or not a payment did go through.  

 

Since the drawing will be held at the "Battle of the Colonies" race on August 4, we will cut off ticket sales on August 1 so that I can get all the tickets sorted out for the paypal payments.  This is an awesome car, don't wait too long and be left out!

 

And thanks in advance to everyone who takes part, especially Noose and Tony P for building the car. Every penny goes to Wounded Warrior Project to helps Vets in need.  If shipping is needed, I am paying the cost for that out of my own pocket.  

[John Streisguth]

those who have sent money have been acknowledged

Everyone has been confirmed for payments.  Again, please do not put anything in the "notes".  We are up to $285, thanks everyone!

I'm IN John---thanks and Happy 4th to ALL the slot racers out there!! 

[John Streisguth]

Happy Independence Day everyone.  I was wondering how much we have raised for Wounded Warriors over the years (first car raffle was 2013) and the grand total is $6933!  Thank you to everyone who has donated over in the past.  

 

Have a safe and fun July 4th everyone!  (lot's of fun here in PA, they loosened the restrictions on fireworks this year!)

Weekend bumparoo...everyone who has paid should have received an acknowledgment email to the address associated with their paypal account.

NO email received John.  FYI

[John Streisguth]

Tim: I sent a PM with the email address from your paypal.  Please let me know if the address is correct and if so, did you receive an email to that address

BTW, for anyone attending the Retro East enduro this coming Saturday, if you won't be attending the Battle of the Colonies race, I can take payment for tickets at the enduro.

Will you accept a 4th party postdated check drawn on a dead persons account for payment?

Hump Day bump.  One week to go! As mentioned, pre-race ticket sales end Aug 1

A great cause. Always proud to support it.

[John Streisguth]

As an added incentive, I will personally donate a Wounded Warrior Victorinox Swiss Army Knife as an extra drawing prize.

Whoa giving sharp objects to slot racers, not a good idea.
