Please send your money to V8Smith without delay, who should have contacted you already. Email him via your profile if you have not year heard from him, the draw is only days away(!)

I spoke to Tim and Mike, both of whom agreed to offer a discount of 10% to the winners of the Xmas raffle

I have an idea, how about an S owners Raffle. We all chip in £20 quid, and the winner gets £XXX to spend on upgrades!

When 60 of us have pitched in, we will have £1200 to spend on upgrades, which equates to:

£650 First place
£300 Second place
£200 Third place
£50 Fourth place (actual amounts to be agreed)

We all need to pull together for it to work, no umming and ahhing Fantastic response so far(!) lets see some more signups

If anyone can't afford the £20, £10 will buy you one 'ticket' which will go into the raffle, £20 buys everyone else 2 tickets. (Trying to be as fair as possible to everyone after the suggested price hike )

The draw may be done by Offord Motor Company

Count me in it is Xmas after all, I think the plan of attack should be get enough interested then collect money as no point starting to collect if only 5 of us want to do it.

Also IF we do get 70, might be better to have 1st £350 - 2nd £225 - 3rd £175 so more people get a share.

If you want a volunteer to arrange/collect I am willing as I am between jobs at the mo so have plenty of time?

Come on then guys confirm your interest????

Excellent

Just a few more signups, and we can start bullying and pressuring those who havn't yet signed up

Any suggestions welcome, like putting in £20 with more winners etc... could be fun and as like Kenny said the winners have to post pics of the work etc...!

Well done We welcome you and your money

Muskrat, was that a yes

Mike, are you happy looking after a pile of tenners at home? (put inside a card, a tenner is safe in the post. 1 in 10'000 letters goes missing, should be fine)
