I found this image online, or found it again. I thought it was perfect for NSTG8R, and a reminder of what we'r fighting for...

Ground Hugging Jets of course!

I hadn't checked in for 2 days and look what happened! I was checking my emails (around 5:30PM est) and saw the "urgent plea" from EM, and took the plunge...(around 6)....too late. But hey, they let me pledge anyway! I am glad they are still taking pledges, as this will only solidify the desire for EM to succeed!

I don't know what that "urgent plea" business was about, since when it came out it was clear we'd meet the goal. Kind of leaves a bad taste in the mouth. No reason given for the urgency of the plea, or why it was needed. I'm glad we're doing fine, but I don't think the plea was a significant factor -- though perhaps it was after all. Don't have any way of knowing how many people upped their "interest level" or stirred friends / colleagues into action. Kind of reminds me of NPR pledge drives.

Elio is, by the way "delighted" with the success of the program and thinks it will translate into solid sales when the SEC approves the actual solicitation. I'd be thrilled, too, if I'd raised 25+ million bucks in about five weeks! Now let's see some action on the P series!

I got a notice yesterday that I had some stocks that had been misplaced 20 years ago. They'd gone up in value, so, I've raised my all-in to 1,000 and have set the rest aside to honor my investment commitment. I can invest more since I can afford to lose that money. But I plan to get my Elio. Maybe I can actually afford the turbo option when it comes out!

Caveat: I have no idea if these work or not but a dyno check will tell the tale.............:car:

I think they were attempting to churn the waters a bit more, looks like a good call seeing as their $300k over now.

id like to see elio motors let those of us who wanted to pay more than the $1,000 us "all inners" have paid toward machine purchase. anything over 1000 would have to be refundable though if things went south. in other words, guys like me could pay an extra 2,3,6000 or more which would 1.give elio money, and 2. pre pay for our car and have no risk. id send them 6000 right now
