Supercharged Camaro Raffle to help Sam Dennis who has Brain Cancer

[BAD68GTO]

Some of you I know on here know me from ViperAlley.Com, another forum I am VERY active on (under name BAD68GTO). I am the administrator of this raffle and I am doing this as well as paying for all expenses out of my own pocket. This is my post and the details of Sam's story are very sad, where even his one medicine alone is $1,500 a month co-pay and he is fighting for his life and has no income coming in other than social security which will kick in soon. Here is the story, and PLEASE post on other car sites and any questions, call me 856-486-1297, it is my computer business number that I own, but I will be happy to talk to anyone about this.

For the benefit of Mr. Sam Dennis who is battling cancer, we are offering for raffle a highly modified black 2002 Z28, 408 cubic inch, 850+ HP, blown, all built, clean, pump gas 9 second car. Car is legally sold as-is where is and is not legal for street use on US highways due to emission controls removed. The car is able to be run on the road if so desired, but not legal and should only be driven by individuals with proper training to handle a high powered vehicle-so car is to be driven at the new owners risk. There are 1000 tickets being sold at $40 each or 3 tickets for $100. Checks or money orders will be accepted and should be mailed to Gary E. Meyer 204 Browning Road Merchantville, NJ 08109 and is the designated administrator of the raffle. Payments will be made out to Mr. Sam Dennis and upon receipt an email confirmation will be mailed out with your ticket number only and will correlate to the ticket number drawn. At no time will the administrator purchase the tickets and drawing will be in a public place in Southern New Jersey on Saturday October 24, 2009 at 12 noon and ANYONE is welcome to come. Someone else's hand will go and draw from the physical tickets and the tickets will be numbered 1-1000. Owner need not be present to win and would pick up the car and keys in IL at Sam's house. Also, the process is welcomed to be audited afterwards to ensure all tickets are in the container so there is no issues of legitimate process involved and the process will also be videotaped.

This car would be as-is, where is and is legally (lol) not street legal because of emissions equipment removed but I am told it should be fine to drive off road on life like roads. All payments would be sent to me personally but the checks and or money orders would be made out to Sam Dennis and not me. Payments then go in bulk to Sam before he turns over keys and will be cashed prior to auction to make sure the tickets are paid for.

I get nothing for this expense wise or any other form of direct and or indirect compensation, however I have the legal authority on determining the winner and running the auction, but my books are open before, during and after the sale to any and all folks that enter. This is not tax deductable in any way and only benefits Sam with his ongoing medical expenses.

To have a chance of a car with an approximate retail value of $30,000 and help support a great cause, please purchase tickets. For further information please contact Gary Meyer 856-486-7800 from 10-7 Monday through Friday or via email gem@gementerprises.com and I am grateful to have the opportunity to help another American out for Americans by Americans. For a direct contrilbtuion to Sam, please send him a Paypal payment to turbosam6@yahoo.com but you cannot use PayPal for the raffle and please use you for contributions in addition to the raffle, but we need to sell these 1000 tickets, so please spread the word and buy as many as possible. I know snail mail payments are not the easiest, but please everyone just pony up that way for the tickets and BUY A TON ;-) Please spread this message to other car boards or wherver too and thanks. I will post progress on this thread on ticket sales too-thanks. We need to move quickly on this and sell them fast! TY Gary

Thread stuck. Best of luck with the raffle and best of luck to Sam Dennis in his battle with Cancer.

If you'd like, I can move / copy this thread to the Open Discussion forum as well. Just let me know.

That would be great Ralph and I appreciate it greatly! I received the first payments to Sam today and it was a terrific feeling indeed. If anyone is near Southern NJ, I live right beside Philadelphia and would welcome anyone to come and watch this. I know the Viper community is really behind this and glad to help another American-especially a car guy. it is a shame, Sam had to already sell his toys already and he is coming down to the wire and this will help him a lot. Again, if anyone has any questions at all, please feel free to call me 856-486-7800 from 10-7 EST and I am NOT in the raffle business, I own a small computer company and I am just doing this to help Sam. NO $ is being used, 100% (read ALL) of the money goes to Sam himself and I am happy to do this for him. Thanks Ralph and I appreciate you doing this! Gary

The drawing is extended until December 12, 2009. We only sold a few hundred tickets and needed to extend this in order to sell the 1000 tickets. Thanks to anyone that has paid up and any questions, please feel free to call me 856-486-7800 and thanks. Gary
