View Full Version : REMINDER: You can win a 200X for CHEAP, and you don't have to be at TF!

This is just a reminder to everyone about the 200x being raffled off at TF this year. You do not need to be present to win it! Anyone here on the forum can purchase a chance (or chances :D) at taking it home.
Here is some pictures of the machine: http://www.3wheelerworldforums.com/showthread.php?t=67688
The tickets are $5 each, or 5 tickets for $20. We do take paypal, or a money order. Your ticket stubs will be mailed to you after your payment is received and the other half will have your contact info put on it and put in the pool with the rest of them. If your ticket is drawn and you are not present, we will make arrangements to get the machine to your location. We do this as a way to give something away, but also as a means to generate some income to help pay for site expenses, and Trikefest related items. If we sell a bunch of these a timing system for the drag strip might be in the cards for next year :naughty: Both the site, and Trikefest are entirely user driven and financed. Your donations and support is what makes all of this possible year after year. So if you've been thinking about donating to the site, heres a chance to double the bang for your buck!
How to purchase:
Paypal Non credit card funded transfers (Ie paypal balance, direct withdrawal from bank account) is: Donations@3wheelerworld.com
Paypal credit card funded transfers is: Admins@3wheelerworld.com
If sending paypal payments PLEASE make sure to include all relevant info so we can contact you. A full name, address, and phone # is requested.
Tickets can also be purchased by mail (Money orders only please, no checks). Send your money order with your contact information to:
You can purchase them by mail:

P.S.: I heard that John Swinehart and Howdy are having a little friendly rivalry to see who can sell the most tickets

more than a mint set of nos 350X fenders with nos garnish?

The timing system we would need runs about 3500-4k.
That is by far though, not our only expense. There are tons of other things that need to be taken care of before a timing system is piurchased, but IF we sell enough tickets this year one is definitely possible.

Yea, you better get all the help you can!! I'm pushing them hard myself. I know I have a few tickets sold already myself. 4 weeks to go and the final push is on. I'm hoping to win our un-offical side bet contest this year!!
Sold another 5 tonight, and have more that want some very soon.
First round of mailed tickets stubs will be sent out Tuesday.

Thank you Rookie !!! You have 20 ticket stubs coming in the mail !
That is a ONE HUNDRED dollar purchase in support of this site folks :)
john
John, Did you do the math correctly?
5 Tickets for $20
$100 divided by 20 = 5 .
5 x 5 = 25 tickets.
On my end of the spectrum:
First round of Ticket stubs went out yesterday.
I hope to send 2 more envelopes with ticket stubs today ( another 10 tickets ).
Note to John, That 12 pack of :beer is going to taste good at my Camp. I can Taste it now! :beer lmao

Say if I were to win, how would I get the 200X up here to PA?
Billy Golightly

We would contact you while everyone was still at TF, and find someone to courier it as close to you as possible, or find other means of shipping it to you complete. We'll get it to you if you win it, don't worry :)

It won't matter who you buy tickets from at TF. John and my contest is based on purely PRE-TF sales.

PREDICTION- John is going to keep posting on here when he sells tickets and try to intimidate howdy. Howdy is going to just keep selling tickets, keep his mouth shut on how many he sold, and stomp john. :lol: :lol:
Nah really i dunno, good luck to both of ya. I am scrounging for money to make it to trikefest with some machines that run so im not buying any tickets yet. Hopefully i'll have enough cash at trikefest somehow to buy a few. If not then i'll be sure to donate to the site sometime after trikefest when im back ahead on money.

Thanks Bruce A. I will get your stubs mailed out today or tomorrow. And I want to say a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who has purchased tickets so far ( via John or myself ).
To everyone else: It's not too late to get tickets, and "I" have plenty of tickets waiting. ;)

Last chance to get tickets before Trikefest. While there isn't time to mail in the funds, we do take / use paypal. I will be leaving tomorrow sometime and will check my email before I leave. I will try to check email daily while at TF ( if I can find a internet accessable connection ). I will post up another reply right before I leave.

Welp, I am 95% loaded and will be leaving very shortly. So the only chance to get tickets now is to be at Trikefest.
Thanks to Everyone that has already bought tickets or will be getting tickets at Haspin. ;)
