    Well I was close and somewhat right, got the info back from our Marine Toys for Tots contact and they run short on ages 9-14, for both boys and girls. Seems to be the same trend each year.

    See all this Saturday, Mark.

    I hung around until the end and got a pleasant surprise. Maybe because all the rest of you guys had left, I was awarded the trophy for Best Exotic. How I beat out the Mangusta I'll never know.

    Jim, the judges felt yours was the 1st place winner. Could be that if the others had stayed you might not have won, but then again with KewlRides Toys for Tots one never knows what will happen. Last year a older Lotus beat out the newer Lambo.

    What I can tell you about the judging at Toys for Tots is that it is always going to be interesting, it has been each and every year.

    Remember, Toys for Tots is a Toy Drive, we do the trophies because we like to give back something to those of you that come out, brave the weather and join us in a good time for the day.

    We collected a little over $1000.00 in cash (the 50/50 winner donated his win back to the Toys for Tots Foundation). We almost filled the USMC truck that came to off load the toys from trailer. We had less cars in attendance but more toys than we had last year and maybe even the year before.


    I want to thank you, and all the FChat folks for really coming out this year, KewlRides T4T is getting to be more about all vehicles and with this we will have to change up the categories in 2011.

    Speaking about that; guess we might as well annouce the:

    8th annual Toys for Tots Toy Drive / Bike/Car/Truck Show

    date will be December 10th, 2011.



    Come out next year and let's see if we can fill a two trailer.

    (if anyone wants to register real early you can send an email with 2011 T4T Reg in the subject to the [email protected] or [email protected] adddress LOL)

    Like we say:

    Make A Difference - Bring A Smile to A Child.

    Merry Christmas

    Happy New Year to All, once again thanks for the support and the toys the USMC will put them to good use.

    Mick, I saw you drive in, but I never saw the car after that. Where did you park?

    I too saw the Lotus drive in, where did you park, I never saw it leave, then again like every other year, I seem to miss most of the cars (always trying to keep things going) and have to look at the pictures to see what was there (but it is fun every year).


    Even though thanks for coming, bring more Lotus with you next year. We already posted the date.


    BTW - If any one have pictures they can put in a zip file, please send them to [email protected] , thanks.
