    9-11-11 Racer Oliver Gooden crashed in the right hand kink (T9) on the back strait at Beaver Run and hit the Armco. He was transported to the local Hospital where they determined he needed to be sent to a larger Hospital in Pittsburgh where he stayed in the ICU for 5 days. He is home and recovering now.

    We have set up a fundraiser for Oliver at Universal Lanes in Warren Mi. November 12th to help with the medical costs. Silent auctions for a bunch of stuff including a Paint Job from Ice Nine Customs and a Bell Helmet from Sportbike Track Gear for the people at the event.

    As part of our fund raising effort we have 2 raffles. You do not need to be present for the raffles. The drawing will be at the event on November 12th.

    $5 Raffle (only 500 tickets)
    1st prize is a Set of Michelin tires from Sportbike Tire Service

    2nd prize is a Trackday of choice with Sportbike Track Time

    3rd prize is a pair of Handroid Gloves from Sportbike Track Gear

    You can paypal the $5 donation to [email protected] and I will enter your information on the ticket for the raffle and email you the numbers. Please send the donation as a GIFT. Please give me a day or 2.

    $20 Raffle (only 250 tickets)

    A New CRF50 from Peak Powersports.

    Paypal is [email protected] include your full name, address and phone number. Please send the donation as a gift.

    A BIG THANK YOU to Richard Harris (STT) David Grey (STS) and Brian Van (STG) and Peak Powersports. When we contacted them about this fundraiser the reply was, What do you need and how can I help.

    For the CRF50, once the paypal shows up I'll fill out the ticket and mail the stub to you via USPS. If anyone has any questions on the fiddy, just shoot me a pm here or feel free to call the shop (586) 727-2777.

    You can also buy them @ the shop if your local.. and if any trust worthy mod's out there are headed to the GNF and want to sell them there for us, that would rock! Just shoot me a PM.

    I can't give enough thanks to all that are helping out!

    I am quickly learning what the nice insurance lady meant when she said "max out of pocket"

    Maybe I'm new to this, but where can we bid on the "silent auction" stuff?

    All stand up guys who corner low. Well, not sure about that Grey fella. :D

    Donations set to Jabe.

    Eddie - I'd say I'd let you look at the fiddy when I win it but chances are, it's probably sitting next to you at your desk. :( :crackup:

    That'd be nice. We gave away a fifty once and some lady in Georgia won it. Everyone at the drawing was a little bummed. :D

    Still waiting for an answer on this one...you listed some things that are going to be auctioned in your previous post that are not listed above for the ticket raffle that I myself, and I am sure others would be interested in trying to win.
