Can we see a picture without the helmet??????? 
My pleasure Dennis. Bobbi is a sweetheart...
It was fun taking her out on the track. She's a good sport. Even though she'd had enough 15 minutes into the session and made me go into the pits.
I don't think she was ready for what was going to happen...It was fun with her even still.
Think she'll go for ride along next year ?

Speaking of "Thanks Coz!" I thought the raffle had some really neat items. I couldn't decide to stuff all my raffle tickets in one box or spread them out amonst the many good prizes. I didn't win anything so next year I'll be trying a different strategy. In any case, thanks Coz!
Coz, you really screwed up.
You did such a great job of hosting the raffle you'll never be able to get out of that job.
Really well done.

I'll second that best year ever raffling off all those items.
Job well done!
Job well done!
Coz Question . . . Why did we auction off the big prizes first instead of the usual "save the best for last"? And thanks for running it again, you always do such a great job!
Thanks Mark. Appreciate it !

Dennis,
Well, that's an interesting question....
Since there were a couple of cry babies last year because they thought the raffle took to long, JT decided that in order to keep them happy, we should do the target prizes first so they could leave after the target prizes were done since they had better things to do
What I figured out from this year, it's not that the raffle takes so long. It's the fact that all the stuff before the raffle is so long winded that by the time we get to the raffle, people are burnt out sitting there. So it really doesn't matter how fast I go through the raffle, people are still going to complain how long it takes. No matter if it only took 30-40 minutes to raffle off everything we had
As you know, I was already getting complaints from some on how long it was taking before we even started the raffle. Made me laugh considering I had nothing to do with the stuff prior to the raffle and hadn't even started the raffle yet. Pretty inconsiderate of those that started to complain before the raffle even started. But whatever......
Maybe next year we should just draw 1 ticket and give the winner everything. That should speed things up
You know my attitude, I could care less about the cry babies, they complain about anything and everything anyway. There is no making them happy. They are not the reason I host the raffle anyway, I do it for those that actually appreciate the effort and work I put into it.
God knows, there isn't much appreciation from very many......But the one's that do appreciate the efforts are the one's that count, the one's I do it for and will continue to do it for as long as I'm asked to do it

Riceman,
I don't know why POCA chooses to cater to the cry babies. Another example of rewarding bad behavior which ultimately leads to more bad behavior! What irritated me was the rather large number of people who sat in the lounge area while the program was going on with the key note speaker and the awards. As I went to the restroom, I overheard one group commenting how the program was really "old" and that they wished "they would hurry through it." If they don't want to be present and pay their respects to the sponsors and distinguished guests, then its better that they don't come at all! What a bunch of selfish people!
I thought that the raffle went smooth and quick. Many people don't realize that the hold up is the people coming up to claim their prizes.
