As a side note, just because the concern has come up. While both of our cars will be there at the show, neither car is taking part directly; and neither Melissa (my wife "Mrs. Azrael"), nor I, will be eligible for any of the prizes or parts that are being donated. The contributions will go directly to Cancer Research, or as prizes for participants to promote Cancer Reseach in Katie's name.

Thanks again to everyone for all of your help and support!

Down to the wire, and the prizes look like they will all be here with a couple extra, because we thought a sponsor had backed out and was not going to get their stuff here on time. God bless them they overnighted it to us and gave us a tracking number, should be here tomorrow afternoon!

With that in mind my wife and I invested some money to make sure we covered our promises for the raffle; but I will leave that up to my wife whether she wants to reveal them as well.

Whew, I will be glad for my dear wife when this finally goes down and she doesn't have this massive anxiety about this being a worthy tribute for a great woman and for a great cause!

Thank you all for the help in this!

Big thanks to the sponsors:

Sounds of Speed Performance
Scoggin Dickey Parts Center
Performance Products
Patriot Performance
Nitrous Outlet
Tropic Care Car Care Products
Gotelli's Speed Shop

With thanks also to the Dave, Nick, and Josh at Newtech!

Thank you Katie for being an inspiration to us all!
