Title: *** Tiger Racing's Grand Opening Give Away *** Winners Posted !!!
Post by: 2fast4u2c on August 16, 2008, 03:19:18 PM
I must be crazy, but here we go again.

In tribute of the Grand Opening of the new Tiger Racing website (http://www.1st-to-the-finish-line.com)
We are giving away a $250.00 Gift certificate good towards the purchase of anything Tiger Racing makes.


Here are the rules:

          1.   You have to nominate another member to enter this give away.
          2.   That member must be in the military
                (Guard-Army-Navy-Marines-Air Force-Coast Guard-Reserve) 
          3.   You have to tell why you are nominating this member.
          4.   You must post a Picture of that member in uniform (on duty would be cool)

But wait, there's more...
I'll give both you and your nominated member a $250.00  gift certificate
(redeemable on my website)

Each military nominated member will also receive a Tiger Racing T-Shirt
just because we love you all.

Post your nominations in this thread.
Let's run this for 1 month, that way you get time to contact your military member and get them to send you a picture of them in uniform
(on duty would be really cool).
Good Luck to all.
Guy

He loves his busa and I like to chat with him to keep him company now and then. Good to have someone to talk to about something of interested when your that far away from society!! Here is my nomination!!! Keaton Garland!!

I'm nominating him because he loves to mod his busa. He also is a great guy to talk to. I email him now and then just to give him some time to think about something other then what he does over there. Being so far from society in another country has to suck. Yea you have your friends that your deployed with but its still cant be the same.. So Keaton eat your heart out hope we win this and that I can be a part of getting you some sweet parts from Tiger!!!

TIGER RACING, You Rock!!!

I want to thank TIGER RACING for all the support that they show to us members of the military.  Several years ago Tiger sent me a great chain guard along with a hat as a Christmas present. 

I would like to nominate Busatroop for this give away.  He is a great soldier and he rides a cool bike.  He already posted his picture up here.  I am in Iraq right now and can't post any of him.  I can, however post MY pictures
(Go Photobucket!) :thumb:


Here is one taken in the northern city of Dohuk

another taken at FOB Warrior in Kirkuk back in 2005

gotta take the MSF course to ride on post (Fort Polk LA)

(http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m251/rlbowers3/16Sep06001.jpg)


And last of all...
  Be carefull of the fine print on your contract.  "Additional duties as required" might not be what you think...

(http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m251/rlbowers3/100_0937.jpg)

I am married with seven children, all of whom ride.  We have several dirt bikes and love to take the kids out.
My wife is holding down the fort while I am away again.  She is a great woman!

I subscribe to the Pay it forward concept.  You board members support me all year long, this is the least I can do.

My darling wife, SMSgt (1st shirt) at the 180th FW here in Toledo supports me completely and vice verse.

Thanks for all the accolades, but this thread isn't about Tiger Racing, it's for our troops.  Keep those photos and nominations coming in, I want to give away a lot of T-shirts to our military and I can't do that without your help.  The more Military that gets nominated, the more t-shirts I can give out and of course, $500.00 to 2 lucky winners.

We don't care where our troops are or what job they do for our country, they do it with pride, honor and look real snappy in uniform.

I would like to nominate, Sgtbusa, (Tim) for this contest. Tim is deployed to Iraq, again. This is his third deployment in as many years to help out with the cause.  Right before he deployed he traded his 2006 GSXR600 for a 2005 Busa, I know he would love to be able to mod that new bike up. And to be able to install parts from Tiger Racing (Guy) would be awesome.  He would like to start drag racing his Busa when he gets back. We are not sure when he will be back this time again; they told him any where from 6 months to 1 year.  It has to be hard stationed over there and not be able to see your wife and two sons. His oldest son is 3 years old and his youngest is 10 months old.  His first deployment he missed out watching his first son go up thru his first year as he left when his son was only a couple months old. That has to be hard for anybody, when you come back your son is walking and doesn't even know who you are, because you haven’t been there.   I know his wife went thru a lot, because they were only in their house 1 week before his first deployment. After Tim left she had issues with different things around the house, my wife and I tried to help as much as possible. Hoping Tim wouldn’t think too much about what was going on here, knowing we were helping his family.  But you know he was still thinking about his family. 
   
Here are a few pics that he sent me from his current deployment in Iraq. I will mod this post to add additional photos as he sends them to me. 
 
Thanks again Guy for being there for our military troops. You are always thinking of ways to support the members of www.suzukihayabusa.org

Wow Dave that really means a lot to me. Yes it has been hard but thanks to all that your family has done for us I don’t know how i could have done it without you all helping out. And to say that you guys helped out as much as you could, you all did above and beyond what’s asked of a neighbor. I call you my family as that is what the Franklins are to me...my family. Big thanks to Tiger Racing(Guy) and what he is doing for us military folks, but a lot of credit is passed over for the families back at home who have to take on all there responsibilities and now have to take on all over there spouses too. To all the soldiers out keep on keeping on. It’s not always easy to be away from your family, but I try to remember that while im here im preventing anything bad happing to my family and friends back there. And if that means hard times for me then I will take it off the cheek and keep moving on. Thanks again Dave and Guy for this.  :thumb: :thumb:

Keep those cards and letters pouring in folks.  The pics are great and we want to give away a lot of T-Shirts so keep em coming.

No thanks necessary for Tiger Racing, our military is all that's important right now.  Until you all come home.

Everyone should be forwarding this thread address to everyone they know on the board and on any other boards.

I wish there were an easier way to post pics.  I hate having to go through Photobucket.

My wife loves these pics.  She too was honor guard, chrome helmet and twirling rifles and all.  Of course she also loves USAF because she is a SMSgt now (1st shirt) at the 180th here in Toledo.

Here are a couple of pics of my wife when she won the NCO of the year 2 years ago when she was only a MSGt.


But first, our honor guard at the 180th.

OUTSTANDING!!!  My dad retired from the Air Force as a MSGT (what is that, E7?)  He has three sons, all of whom joined the Army.  Both my younger brother and I are Iraq War Vets.

MSgt = e7

cool pics guy!   i have found honor guard to be one of the most rewarding things(emotionally) you can do stateside.   we also have a picture in our building of the uniform you're talking about,  chrome helmets, rifle team, and they also did the bloused boots.  very sharp look  :thumb:

Nice Guy, I didn’t know you where a dependent :lol: WOW nice NCO of the year, im trying to put together a package now, but kind of tuff over here. But I will have some nice bullets when I leave here.

My father SWEARS that Air Force MSGT is equivelant to a Navy CPT or an Army MAJ   :lol:

And he really believes that Gods signature block reads USAF (RET)

 :lol: :lol: :lol: Yea guy I will make sure its not those  :thumb: Yea he has them twisted, quick break down:
E1-- Airman basic                            O1-- 2nd Lt
E2-- Airmen                                    O2-- 1st Lt
E3-- Airman first class                       O3-- Captain
E4-- Senior Airmen                          O4-- Major
E5-- Staff Sgt                                 O5-- Lt Colonel
E6-- Tech Sgt                                 O6-- Colonel
E7-- Master Sgt                               O7-- Brigadier General
E8-- Senior Master Sgt                     O8-- Major General
E9-- Cheif Master Sgt                       O9-- Lt General
                                                    O10-- General

There is the Non-Commisiond and the Commisioned ranks....sadly they dont compare...E's are the worker bee's and the O's make that back office decisions. Well at least until you make SNCO (E7-E-9) they do alot of back office as well. And yes one day my sig will read USAF(Ret) too  :lol:

 :oops:  I was being facetious   :oops:

Dad retired MSGT radio operator in the old Pre-AWACS.  He is now a Dentist in Cal State Prisons.  He has two RET Navy CAPTs that work for him as well as one RET Army dentist that was a MAJ.  He keeps goading them to have a wear-your-uniform-to-work day  :lol:
