That's not what my CCA guy said, but what does he know ;)

I hope you're right, as that's a better chance for those (like me) who bought the five tickets.

Where'd you get your info, if you don't mind me asking? I'd like to push back to my CCA friend here, and i'd like to have some more ammo than "Jim in Oregon said so" not that i'm saying that's not good enough for some ;)

According to the info given, "The number of tickets sold determines the number of cars given away. Last year we had 13 winners. If in the last group of ticket requests there are less than 2500, the winner of this drawing may be awarded a cash prize".

Given the same number of tickets as last year sold as an example (13 lots of 2500=13 winners), each one of your 5 tickets would go into 1 of 2500 lots. Thus you would be entered into 5 of the 13 lots. They then draw 13 tickets, one from each lot...you have 5 tries to win in the 5 of 13 lots you're entered for an overall chance of 5 of 2500 or 1/500. I always buy 5 tickets.
