The non-Forumites who were selected thread

[Xcentric]

Let's see how many selectees outside of the Forum we can identify. Maybe it will help fill out the worthiness criteria. :lol

1. nautoncall has identified Captain Sparklez. I won't ask how he found that out. haha.

2. Shmee150 (Tim Burton) was selected. His net worth is estimated to be $500K in 2016.

So far, based on a sample of two, we have very strong social media presence.

One guy who seems to be devoted to nothing but playing Minecraft, and one guy who is actually a car guy.

EDIT: By request, I will add selectees to this post as they are identified so that we can see them all in one place. Thanks Brombear!

3. Amy MacDonald - 28 year old Scottish singer-songwriter, guitarist, and recording artist. She has sold over 9 million records worldwide (posted by GT101).

I'm a bit disappointed that our Forum leader hasn't tried to recruit her. Might enhance the Rally experience.... :wink

Ye of little faith. I exchanged several messages with her days ago.

Hot tatted up Scottish chick? :willy

 

[Awsum GT]

well... did you succeed?

 

[Joe Dozzo]

Too soon... Not past the "sour grapes" stage yet...

 

[GTdrummer]

In the words and inflection of Kevin ("The Office") she's " not that hot".

Scrolled through her tweets and found this. Clearly, she has good taste.

Damn. I was hoping it was a tweet about me. Oh, well.

Having, in the immortal words of DBK, "a Hot tatted up Scottish chick" around the rally would certainly help the collective mood for those of us without a NFGT allocation...

I'm not sure the wives would think the same as us.

Deadmau5, a musician with an affection for sport cars

http://www.youredm.com/2016/07/28/deadmau5-receives-acceptance-letter-to-purchase-2017-ford-gt/

Can you add the names to your post, so we have an overview on first post ?

 

[nautoncall]

I watched Shmee's video on getting selected. He was riding around in his Focus RS for like 10 minutes leading up to his "announcement". I scrolled from the opening remarks to the end. He has quite the car collection...and just moved from the 675LT to the 675 Spider. What does he do for a living...just seems like he drives around Europe in nice cars. Not a bad gig.

Done. Ausgezeichnet Idee! :thumbsup

I'm popping up to Scotland in a couple of weeks, if I see her I'll pass on our regards! :wink

 

[Bullitt2065]

I know Justin Verlander (star pitcher for the Detroit Tigers) wanted one. He's engaged to supermodel Kate Upton, makes $28 million a year and already has a collection of sports/supercars. Rough life...

He's usually pretty active on social media, but he hasn't mentioned anything bout getting/not getting one.

 

[dbk]

I dunno man, talented, into cars, independently wealthy...that's my type. I mean, it would be my type if I wasn't happily married to the loveliest woman in the world. :lol

I don't like Tats!
