whoever did the bidding for the online bidding musta had some deep pockets, only 3-4 of the items onsite went to in person bidders.

I bid up to 2k on the door from the lemans car but didnt get it. Was thinking it would have looked good next to my rear bumper cover from last year

Cool items and glad they did it again, Mr. Pickett of muscle milk also said he would double whatever funds were raised tonight

Dan told me that they raised $60,000 altogether. He is very happy with the results.
