Think you’ll find (( I could be wrong )) they aren’t the same car, 1 on tilt tray has what looks like a roll cage, rubber inserts in bumpers and different wheels to the car being raffled by T.S. All of which the raffle car didn’t have… The raffled car was finally drawn last Thursday (( after being postponed for months )) and winner notified… What I don’t get is half these raffle cars would need major modifications to ever be road registerable in any state so are merely trailer queens only fit for events like power cruise and drag strip… What annoys me is the fact the raffle holders drive them like their stolen,  beat and trash these vehicles on public roads whilst in their care, When in fact the minute they are put up as raffle prizes they are no longer the legal owners… Look at half the raffle house employees they boast about their lambos and luxury houses and also the amount of coin that goes to charity from each raffle… Just What or Who’s charity I’ll let you decide…

Major Scam those raffles from what I can see.

Major Scam those raffles from what I can see.

 

A mates daughter worked as an economics expert for one of the many charitable agencies in the country a while back.

Had a chat to her about the perceived rip offs from donations and raffles etc.

The actual amount getting to the charity is very small in lots of cases.

But it is money that they wouldnt get if the activities didnt happen.

Direct donations would of course get them better returns, but the prizes on offer entice people to buy tickets and its money they probably wouldnt get otherwise.

One of the raffle runners has a very high profile, and there has already been some controversy with people associated with him.

Im wondering if he is already under scrutiny considering his acquaintances.

 

Have seen a few high profile people in the last 10 years or so that fell from grace when somebody did checks into their affairs.

 

Perhaps they are totally legit, but they appear to be making lots of money for themselves in the process

 

Cheers

He has good taste in cars.

He might be colour blind though. The paint on the Lambo looks like it was stolen off a Valiant.
