I just got the email, so I'm sure everyone else did as well or its on the way. I don't know if the estimated $800 value is the final value you'll end up on the 1099 or W2G, or if it will be actual cost with airfare being the variable. I have a note into them about that question.

Also, I should add I am not in any way, shape or form and expert on this subject, I've just had to pay it for other winnings before.

The pertinent part is

Please note, Beyond Marketing Group ("BMG") has invited you to a special Scion FR-S event that we are promoting on behalf of our client Scion/Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. You have been invited as a result ofyour inclusion in the First 86. As a result, BMG will provide airfare, transportation, hotel and meals for approximately 3 days to attend a showcase of the FR-S vehicle at Formula Drift and production facilities on-site at Toyota. The promotional value of this package is estimated to be $800 and will be subject to Federal and State reporting requirements.
