Let's use this thread to keep up on contingency programs for next year...

First: It's official, no Kumho $ next year.http://kumhomotorsports.wordpress.com/

Does anyone else know anything?

Hoosiers gotta be loving that!

I'm only concerned with who is paying for coming in DFL.
I hear the following companies are considering it:
Betterlucknexttime.com
RC cola
The Kaboose manufactures of America
The Big Three
IAW
John Paul

Looks like Mazda is still in for '09

For the most part the Mazda program looks the same... The only change I noticed in Solo is they dropped the 3rd place $50 payout, which had only been around for the last few years.

Per the DSS call, there are more cuts coming to the programs from Hoosier and Bridgestone.

No, but his wife could win something.

:unimpressed: Actually, that hits real close to home...Shauna won way more money from Yokohama than me, probably 2x as much!

If I can win contingency money, I think Seb can...

With Kumho’s dropping its Solo contingency program, here’s great news from Toyo. No word on Bridgestone or Yokohama yet.

C2 Motorsports loves to sell Toyo R1R's

Are Toyo R1R's sticky? You should see where they pulled the paint off the shop floor! No Kumho's or Hoosier's ever did that!

P.S. Toyos NEED shaving...I heard there was some guy in SD that has a machine but it needs fixin' I bet he would sell even more street tires if he offered shaving service too. Hint hint....

Now that Toyo is out with it, and they have an ownership connection with Bridgestone they need to have a joint contingency for the StoneYo crowd.

get it right, She said ....old and useless! Just like Bill

A very sharp Corp Exec once said. If your having problems with sales. DO NO CUT YOUR MARKETING BUDGET!

What is Kumho thinking? They have made their name and plenty of money off Solo and roadracing.

I think they are big enough to continue to support us! Just my 2 cents.

Have Fun! Steve
