Thank you for coming out and giving support.

Ah ok, cool, thanks bud.

And to everyone bashing on aaron about asking/taking the donations. He didnt ever ask for any of it, we all just stepped up and offered it to him. He actually turned down quite a few donations when it first started. I personally have never met aaron and tonight was the first night I ever spoke to him. We spoke about some ideas I had for the BBQ and me putting on a car stereo shop, where all the proceeds will go to Jap Works to help out with their bills and attorneys for the case that will be going on over the celica.

I was hoping by doing my donation from our company that other companies and individuals would step up and help out, and they have. We have had someone step up and help out with the website, and we also have had a graphics and trophy shop willing to help me out with Jap works stickers we can sell or give away in exchange for a donation, some banners, and a few of the very very nice marble plaques with engraving plates, that we can use for the car audio competition for some of the best of or first places in each class.

But this whole thing makes me very happy to be a car enthusiast, b/c I see how we can never have met, but band together and help out like family. LIke I said, I have never met aaron or anyone from Jap Works, hell up until yesterday, I never even heard of Jap Works and Im only a couple cities over. But they were many many other ppl the same as me, never met aaron or Jap Works and jumped at the opportunity to help out.

I would just like to thank everyone for letting us be apart of the Tampa Racing Family, and we will be sticking around after all this has blown away.

Thanks,

Shawn

PS Its late, Im tired and going to bed, everyone have a wonderful night.
