Sponsors do not necessarily revolve around winning race. It's all about exposure for the sponsor. Kenny Bernstein once said about his Budweiser King FC, I may or may not win the race but the fans and sponsors will definitely will remember that we were here. It all about presence. jmho

She’s also not the first class racer to bring sex and pornography as a sponsor.

Paul Cambria comes immediately to mind. Had Hustler Magazine in pink on the quarter of his wife's black COPO. Didn't he represent Flynt at one point?

No, you're absolutely right. I just felt like saying the quiet part out loud and used Summer as an example. She isn't the first and won't be the last. However, in this case, I found her means of rising to the top particularly less palatable.

Pleasure is a powerful stimulant that can easily lead to it being a vice which can lead to addiction. The sponsor in question is just another gateway to loss of balance in life. It?s anti-family and particularly exploits women and young girls into convincing them (in many cases unwillingly) that they have an ?advantage? in using their ?assets? and it will equate to success or perhaps wealth however fleeting that may be. Ones that think any such advantage is fairly seized or that it?s victimless might think differently if their daughter or granddaughter went down that path. NHRA is now promoting gambling, just another victimless vice so doubt they have qualms about such sponsorship. One of the things I enjoy about racing is the shared relationships, and we are lifted up when others lend a hand or encourage us. This is not about any of that, it?s selfish pursuit of pleasure/success regardless of cost or those that are victimized in the process. In racer speak it?s the moral equivalent of a matty box. Off the soap box….

That’s deep but I say there are no victims only willing participants. OF isn’t exploiting anyone that didn’t chose to be for $, a lot of $ for some.

BTW. My original opinion came from a situation we had about 5 years ago with a friend of my oldest daughter. She had a page and it was full of nudes. She was 18. We as parents were a little alarmed about it. Glad to see the platform has changed!

BTW2. She also told me she was thinking about selling sexy photos to buy a Benz. I said do it but you will be using that money for rent.
I?m not sure how you came to this conclusion with your research. Onlyfans certainly does allow nudes. Your original opinion was spot on
