Slot Car Racers Giving Back

2015 Michigan 24 Charity Raffle

Background

At last year’s Michigan 24, one of the racer’s organized a raffle on behalf of a fellow racer who had been recently diagnosed with cancer. The raffle was a great success and for everyone involved, “giving something back” was one of the highlights of the event. As the word got out about the raffle, many other racers wanted to know how they could participate in future raffles.

What Charity Will Receive Raffle Proceeds?

Each of the six (6) teams participating in this year’s Michigan 24 will identify a charity they are racing for. At the end of the event, each charity will receive 1/6 of the total raffle proceeds.

How the 2015 Raffle Will Work

There are several ways to participate in this year’s raffle:

1) You can purchase raffle tickets online. Tickets are $1.00 USD each.

1 Ticket - $1.00
6 Tickets - $5.00
30 Tickets - $20.00

2) You can purchase 2015 Michigan 24 Merchandise.

2015 Michigan 24 Official Event Poster + 2 Tickets - $10.00

2015 Michigan 24 Official T-Shirt + 5 Tickets - $20.00 (Note: Please specify size - L, XL, 2XL)

If you are purchasing merchandise, please add $5.00 USD to cover shipping (if you are outside the U.S., please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order). Payment via Paypal, please send payment to:
cloverleafracing@gmail.com

Be sure to indicate in the Paypal comments section what you are purchasing. You will receive a follow-up email with your raffle ticket numbers.

*** IMPORTANT *** The deadline to purchase raffle tickets online is Wednesday, March 18, 2015. Event posters and t-shirts are available after this date; however, raffle tickets will not be included.

Raffle Prizes

Our event sponsors have contributed some great prizes for the raffle – the retail value of these prizes is over $400.00!! Prizes include:

• Piranha Motors (6 winners – 1 motor each)
• Quick Slicks Racing Tires (12 winners – 1 pair each)
• C.B. Design Wheels (6 winners – 1 pair each)
• Quick Slicks Racing Tires Banner (2 winners – 1 banner each)
• Piranha Motors Banner (1 winner – 1 banner each)
• Slot Car Corner Banner (2 winners – 1 banner each)
• Slot Car Corner Hats (6 winners – 1 hat each)
• We have just been told that Professor Motor will also be donating to our charity we will update you once we have a list from them.
• Additional prizes from other event sponsors (TBD)

If you’d like to become a sponsor of this great event, please contact us directly for more information.

How Will Winners Be Determined

All raffle tickets sold will be placed in a large container. The winning team will draw the first ticket, the second place team the next ticket, and so on. We will continue drawing tickets in this order until all prizes have been awarded.
Unfortunately, this format will not allow winners to select a prize. We will announce the prize being drawn for throughout the raffle.

How Will Winners Be Notified?

We will post all raffle winners, including the prize they won, in this thread. We will do our best to post the results “live” as the raffle proceeds.

How Do I Claim My Prize

Prize winners should send an email to cloverleafracing (at) gmail.com with their shipping information.. As we will be exhausted at the end of the racer, please give us a couple of days to travel home and rest. Once we have recuperated, we will ship out prizes.

Harry,

Can we have this post pinned into the Fresh off the Press section... I have heard from sources that the prize donations are going to increase as will the dollar donations.

If you are going to buy a raffle ticket for anything this year, please consider this raffle...

Thank you...

Fantastic idea for worthy causes, an idea that can only promote the image of slot car racers throughout North America.

Maybe admins on some other slot car bulletin boards will help promote this cause.

Well done, Cloverleaf and Slot Car Corner.

I just wanted to let anyone who wanted to get into the raffle that you only have one week left. You can still purchase Michigan 24 hour stuff you will jut not be able to get in the raffle. I also would like to thank all of the people who have already contributed so far.
Thanks

Just AWESOME !!!
I have met many racers over the last year which I now consider friends.
Last month sponsored a raffle to help support a local hobby shop....ACE Hobby in Niagara Falls.
It was a great success.
