Wow! With the economy the way it is today and all the families that have adjustable mortgages sky rocketing and alot of places with sales down do to the economy you still have people like you and the lady I seen on TV saying they were down in donations at there church this year that people need to step up more and give! The only thing that came to mind was: Look around at the Crunch that MOST people are going through this year and they have the gull to go on national tv and ask for more! Just because of a good year it don't automatically mean it has to top it the following year.. If your so well to do, I guess You should have made up the differance of your expectations!! Look up! You just might see a dark cloud above you!!I'm feeling a bit empty, here. Only $12k with 3000+ entries?
Apparently some folks kinda missed the spirit of this thing. It is a fund raiser for the less fortunate. This was an opportunity to give with a long shot of being rewarded for your generosity, not to reap benefits for nothing. I KNOW many folks donated more than $5 per, which means many more skimmed. At least 700 times. Friggin' takers. Took a good thing and F'ed it up.
I would be AMAZED if this was to be done again, but if by some weird circumstance it does, I'll pledge right now to double my donation. IMO, next time, make it a raffle. I would be happy to help with the administration of that.
Mods and Brian and everyone who donated $ or parts or time, I say good job. It was an honorable thing you did.
To everyone who didn't...
Sorry for the dark cloud, but this kinda stuff really gets to me.

I haven't seen the finished pics yet From what Brian said this a.m., they haven't had much time to post pictures because they have been spending so much time on the TFT car.
