Title: Safety First Racing raffle
Post by: khanson on July 22, 2004, 06:46:48 AM
Sorry it took a few days to post.  

Well, the big winner of the SV650 was a local State Farm agent in Champaign.  She was giving the SV to her husband and he was absolutely ecstatic.

The trip was won by a Lt. at the police department and she gave the trip to a co-worker who has an 11 year old son who is nuts about bikes and has never seen a race before.  He and his mom are beside themselves about going.  That's the really cool thing because they will be a weekend he will never forgets and this is something he would probably never have the opportunity to do.

The Suomy helmet was purchased off the Roadracingworld website from a guy that just wanted to contribute to the Safety First program.

Sorry none of the local CCS people won.  It's funny because I probably new 85% of the people who purchased tickets and figured someone I knew would win the prizes.

Thankyou to all for your support of the program.  I really appreciate it and it's means a great deal.  You really are making a difference in kid's lives and have a direct part in something I really believe in.

Thanks again everyone! ;D

That's cool!  I like that the kid will get to go.  Of course, racers are racers so there may be some who would have been willing to bump an 11 yr. old kid out of the way to swipe the tickets.  j/k  ;D

Only if the offending 11 yr old were allowed to race an SV. ;) ;D I'm sure he'll have a blast on the trip.

Always happy to help out a good cause. Of course Roger could have really used that SV... ;)

I didn't even make 1 turn in my 1st stint.

Still had fun after 1/2 an hour in the pits.

Let the team owner crash the bike.  That's what I always say...
Hey Lonny?  How's your anal hematoma? ;) ;D

I know.  I LOVE that track.  Although, I prefer the counter-clockwise direction.  

PS - How was the wake up call this year?
