This is from when I sent a pic of my (now wrecked) 2006 Yamaha FZ1 - Virtual SuperSport Bike Show - FZ1/FZ6 Submission

Oh yeah... I won a bottle of Patron and Mini Gran Prix tickets saturday night at LVMS. Guess I can drink and drive.

lol... they sent me another email, said it was a mistake so they will send me a t-shirt.

I told them I wasnt going to the race anyway and to keep the t-shirt because if its designed like thier bikes, I didnt want to have problems with it.

OK... that's a whole lot different than MotoGP tickets. Great response, though! (I can imagine you typing that one out)

It is with great regret that we must inform you that the email that was sent to you yesterday regarding the Laguna Seca MotoGP Contest was incorrect.

Unfortunately, due to a technical difficulty, everyone who had entered a bike in the Virtual Bike Show and MotoGP Contest (both Laguna Seca and Indianapolis) received a congratulatory email instead of just the 100 actual winners for Laguna Seca. The Indianapolis MotoGP Contest will continue through August 11, 2008.

We sincerely apologize for this error. And as a token of our appreciation, we will be sending you a specially designed Colin Edwards Laguna Seca T-shirt for the trouble and inconvenience. This shirt will be mailed immediately following the Laguna Seca event.

Once again, we are truly sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Oh dude.... that sucks!

Too bad it's not like retail... when they mis-mark an items price, they still have to give it to you at that price.

Well, least you got a shirt.... better than nothing.

BTW - That pic of your bike is awesome... you got yourself one sweet machine there!
