Strange Engineering/NHRA dispute

[tim worner]

In regards to stickers on cars. don't forget we our pit friendly to the fans that walk around and look at the cars and ask questions. We are always asked what products we use and seeing those decals on the cars goes a long way in the decision of a racer or fan as to what products he buys.

I agree with Tim. PLUS, it's pretty hard to see a sticker on a car moving at 180 mph vs. a car sitting at the starting line staging.

We were discussing this the other day and a couple of thoughts

1 How many parts are sold because Strange is on the Contingency list?
2 How many racers recommend Strange to Non Nhra racers because of Strange Contingency?
3 What does it cost for NHRA to handle the contingency program processing 24 nationals and 40 LODRS events?

The contingency list is advertising, if it cost $13K for strange to be in the program how else would strange spend this advertising money?
1/2 page ad in my local paper is $600 each time

I do not know the policies, but some things to think about.
