As each ticket is purchased your name will be added next to a number in the table. Upon completion of the raffle one number will be drawn by an official Notary Public of the State of Florida, who will authentic and verify the results. The Notary will then complete the official winners contract and sign it. The winner will then be provided instructions on claiming the prize. Please Direct all questions to jamesg@rx8botd.com.

Just curious, how is it that 3 tickets cost $8 but 10 costs $28? By my obsolete algebra skills, it costs more to buy 10 than to buy 3 sets of 3 plus 1 more ticket which would be $27.

You are completely right.....I upped the $28.00 to 11 tickets and credited everyone who bought 10 tickets to 11 tickets.

Thanks for the catch!!

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is this whole double DIN thing? I'm trying to look it up on google but I don't really understand. From what I am reading, single/double DIN refers to dimensions of car radios. So what would the change be from our stock setup?

Our stock setup is neither. The double DIN unit is a replacement panel that has an opening for a double-sized stereo unit and for the climate control *****:

Yes we are making money off of the raffles, by we I mean the BOTD Board of Directors. All funds are 100% a part of the BOTD fundraising for the 2009 event. The board is not paid any money and is volunteer only.

On another note:
Well everyone, it looks like we did not sell enough tickets to break even on this raffle. So I will extend it another day to see if we can sell about 50 more tickets, otherwise we will turn this in to a 50/50 raffle and the winner will receive 50% of the proceeds in a Gift Certificate to the store of their choice.

On another note, what would be a better raffle idea to help sell more tickets. Is there an item that everyone wants right now?

a racing beat cat back, strut bars, cold air intake.... those are some more popular items that i think more people would buy tickets for but i wouldnt expect to see any high number of ticket sales with the current economy situation

Well, because we did not sell this raffle out by the end date and we did not sell enough tickets to break even, this raffle was turned in to a 50/50 Raffle. 50% of the proceeds will go to the 2009 BOTD Fund and 50% will be given to the below winner in a gift card to the vendor of their choice.

WINNER: jgavril

CONGRATS!!!
