Poll about what the raffles should be-non attendees opinions welcome

[PalmerWMD]

Fellas ,

read all questions CAREFULLY before answering poll.Last time we raffled off a case of Valvoline Synpower for teh attendes at our last KY meet.

Even if you wont go cuz u live far I still want opinions.

Fred...Who should our raffle be for (prize will be same as last time a case SynPower 5w-40)

[PalmerWMD]

Aargh, hold on PPL, I cant edit and the poll feature didnt kick in for me.

To be fixed soon.

Fred....:oface

[Daunttless]

Here ya go Fred

[Daunttless]

Its fixed Fred. : )

[PalmerWMD]

Thanks, Daunt.I see my permissions are working again too.

i went with the furthest distance to help encourage people to come from far and beyond. we got a good loyal louisville crew and apparently a good BG crew, so no need in bribing them. my reward is seeing the cars

[theTony]

I also say the furthest driver. If someone comes from so far away they should get some kind of an award for making such an effort to be with everyone! If it's a tie on the distance, like if two people come from the same area, then have a drawing between them.

[UncleBen]

i voted on the wrong one, lol. can one of you mods change my vote to the furthest driver?

[PalmerWMD]

lol

Done.

Also:Ben you said you might want some 5w-40?Sould I pick some up here in Lville if you cant find any in BG?

Fred...

[UncleBen]

that'd be awesome, thanks. how much $ a case?

[PalmerWMD]

I think it's about $26 a case.Semi-decent deal since I drive directly to the distributor.

Not a great deal tho for getting it directly from the distributor but a tad better than at the autoparts store.

Fred..

[UncleBen]

how many does the case contain? it didnt look very big when Timmy was caryin it to his GST the other day...

[PalmerWMD]

6 quarts per case, full PAO synthetics are not cheap.

Fred..

[PalmerWMD]

But it's about in line with other PAO full syns.The cheapest full PAO syn you can buy is Exxon Superflow Gold Synthetic.Around $3 per quart,great value.most others are between 4.4 to $5 per quart.

if they take the time to join us, contribute to the raffle and be in our company then they have just as much right to the prize as the next guy , alot of the time people will join a marqe oreinted group with a diffrent marque and end up buying one of our cars just becauce of the experence he/she has had with us , good way to get new nissan owners , and ive seen it happen quite a few times

Good input Mike.

The raffle is free btw and donated by one of us hence the poll.

If we all agree on the farthest driver I think he will get it regardless of his marque.

I'll just wait for how the poll comes out.

[Stoneage_Turbo]

im used to it being one of those 5 bucks a ticket where 80% goes to the prize and the other like 20 goes to the organization. thats pretty cool on the donated prize , you guys are running a interesting show

[UncleBen]

what can we say? : )

[Mayhem_J30]

I also say the furthest driver. If someone comes from so far away they should get some kind of an award for making such an effort to be with everyone! If it's a tie on the distance, like if two people come from the same area, then have a drawing between them.

if it's a tie they walk 10 paces turn and fire. duel to the death. whoever loses i get their car.

[redrocket]

My opinion I think the raffle should be for anyone who joins us and say some other reward for driving the farthest. I knew I drove the farthest for this last meet and by all means I was not expecting anything thing in return but new friendships and the sight of gorgeus cars and that was the sole reason for the trip

[PalmerWMD]

Come on PPL,We can get more than 12 replies here!

Like I said non attendees opinions are very welcome too!

Fred...

[PalmerWMD]

Looks like the votes are about even, between 2 alternatives, so this is what my desicsion is for SAT OCT 19TH meet:

The case Of Valvoline SYnPower in 5w-40, a full PAO synthetic, highly foaming resistant for us speeders, good viscosity range for hard driving , yet wonderfully thin during cold startup, goes to (drumroll please) the guy who drives the furthest to be with us at our meet, regardless of car brand.
