Didn't this guy get himself an entry in the Darwin awards? Sounds familiar...=20

A R&R jet engine in a car???? Cute idea! There is an urban legend about a military guy who tried=20
to mount a JATO rocket on his Chevy Impala (nothing so fancy as R & R). It didn't end up
very good for him. May be he should have tried with R & R jet engine. =20

Okay ... so you don't get a car ... do you at-least get an engine once in say 5 years ??=20

Same thing happens to me, I always get the question .. "Do you get tickets to all the games?" the answer is a big NO. We may get to see them on our internal cable network, but unless you are good spending ($$$$$$) advertiser tickets are unlikely .. or if you win them in a contest.
