Man wtf I didn't hit a single number out of 20 bucks worth of tickets lmao.

pits200 · 11-28-2012, 10:17 PM

Same here, I spent 10 and only got the 05. I wonder if I could cut and paste them onto one ticket.

Sam335ix · 11-28-2012, 10:20 PM

Watch... It's some 89 year old with a pace maker and cancer that wins it... No kids or grand kids!

calvinwu · 11-28-2012, 11:10 PM

I will keep my mouth shut and turn my 3 into a first class race car on street for sure~~LOL~~~

Do you know what a blind trust is or what it does?? It helps you remain anonymous... no one would ever know who the beneficiary is.

Who gives a shit, you didnt win so your trust can stay blind lol... If I won, I ll give millions to family and friends and then change my name and move the f away and buy an island. I would go with a low key name, like Sammy Hoffa lol.

O HELLA BMW · 11-29-2012, 07:07 AM

2 people won
1 in Arizona and 1 In Missouri

To claim your prize you have to be photographed. Also a prize so big is divided into multiple payments... So much for leaving the country to avoid paying taxes on it.

But the 2 winners still haven't came forward yet so I have no idea how old they are but I'm guessing well over 55 years old like always lol

Tallest · 11-29-2012, 11:42 AM

hardly something Id share with the world, probably will tune the car or keep it altogether etc, and most of the money will go into trust fund. I cant see the point of giving stuff out, its not exactly you win powerball every year, so if you got lucky / better be smart about it and hold on to the cash.

Das_Stig · 11-29-2012, 01:03 PM

pshh.. i would use the money to take over a small island third world country...

and yes its possible, minus american or chinese influence.

N0OS3 · 11-29-2012, 01:16 PM

honestly, i would funnel it back into the system... after taxes, it's roughly $368,000,000 cash value... if you take that and disperse it throughout hundreds of banks across the U.S. and even [worst case scenario] with 1% interest, that's $3,680,000 a year from just sitting on your ass... take 50% tax from that, you're still a hella baller... at that point, no, i still would not give away my 3er... i would probably make it a sleeper if anything. ^__^

AndyR83 · 11-29-2012, 06:36 PM

If I won hundreds of millins, I would give my 335 away to a friend of mine that loves it and would kill for one of his own. He's a good guy, and has always helped me out with car stuff!

E90_boostjunky · 11-29-2012, 06:40 PM

i would not have enough time to be on this forum anymore that for sure.

Kuch335 · 11-30-2012, 01:11 AM

have it shipped overnight to Vishnu/FFTEC with a blank check and simple instructions: get this under 10sec 1/4mi and return in 30 days

then get a 911 Turbo S Cab for the daily driver..

Get some work done then its off to the next shop. I'm sure id have a lot of fun with a wallet that size. Widebody,RBs,oil slick/smoke screen buttons etc etc

Great plan. Alexander Keith's IPA FTW by the way! Dying to get back to the great white north to have one.

I think I'd turn mine into a sweet track car and have fun with that on weekends...when I wasn't busy driving the crap out of my 458!

Thrakos · 11-30-2012, 04:56 PM

I give 10% of any winning away to charity (animals, homeless, etc). Yes, I would give my 3 away and pay maintenance / gas / upkeep costs for life for whomever got it.

I would pick up an X6, M5, RR Evoque and go on one hell of a vacation
