F.Y.I.
I am sure I am the only one who post here who has a financial stake in the success of the ICS. I am involved with the marketing of products with 2 series drivers and working on a third.
I would also financially benefit greatly with a greater motorsports connection and Chevrolet but I am not a hypocrite so I can't support the actions of GM and the Government bailout.
Wow! Talk about Political Speak.Quote:

Are you one of those phony guys who suddenly realized in 2008 that they don't like paying taxes? Right when the guy they didn't support won the election? And had no problems with paying taxes and the government wasting "their money" when their favorite guy was in charge?
Some people are just angry at the world. They are part of the "me" generation and are upset they haven't been given their piece of the pie.Quote:

Great news for IRL if true. I'll believe it when it happens though.... As for all of the bailout talk - they shouldn't have been bailed out in the manner they were... they should pay back everything owed to the gov't before doing things like this.. but since my opinion counts for nothing - woo hooo - more $$ for my sport!!
Well done.Quote:

GM will pay back the remaining $40 billion as soon as they can. I don't know what the schedule is, but I would be willing to be it will be in the next 5 to 10 years.Quote:

If everything goes well the bailout will pay for itself, and the government should make some profit, as they did with most of the bank bailouts.
I am not a fan of this White House or this President, but the mantra of "It's my money and I don't want them racing," is flaws on so many levels I just can't let that stand.
If they don't advertise, they don't make money. This is advertising. Sure, it's expensive advertising, but it is still showcasing a product.
