I'm giving them the domain I never said I'm not. But they started this by not doing he right thing and calling me and asking for it. They had to sick the lawyer on me which cost them more by doing it this way.
I also have the right not to shop there and this was way before the domain name thing.
Also here was my point the series sponsor is CT right then why does NASCAR get nascarcanadiantireseries.com domain name which is forwarded to a nascar site and not even a CT site so who should they really be fighting with?? But they know how big NASCAR is and they go after the little guy.
Take a look nascarcanadiantireseries.com site shouldn't this be going to a Canadian Site that is the series and not to everyone of NASCAR Series. Face it people you don't have to agree with me but the Series is NASCAR Canadian series forget the TIRE word as it doesn't count and it has been proven over and over.
Give me a break If they truly cared about Canadian motorsports they would have sponsored the whole series and kept it Canadian owned. CASCAR series has been in trouble for many years and Canadian Tire sat back and watched and as soon as they hear NASCAR is going to get involved then they want to step up and sponsor the series.
I'll go along with that. I don't think the website domain thing is terribly surprising...so I have no opinion there. But damn it just makes me mad that after 20 years of trying, it'll now be taken more seriously by many media and sponsors. And why? Just because it says NASCAR on it. >:(
If you are going to sit here and whine about what is going on, I think we all have a right to know what the site is being used for. Geeze get over it, you infringed on copyright law, you have no defense. We all agree they could have been nicer about it. And Canadian Tire isn't just invovled becasue of NASCAR. I believe they had 10 years with Peter Gibbons and they sponsored a few races. Wasn'
t there rumours of talks of them sponsoring the series a few years back. Why don't you complain about the other companies who are only getting involved now that NASCAR is involved. YOu can't even really blame the companies for not getting invovled though, blame the population as a whole for not embracing a stock car series because it didn't have the NASCAR name in it. I can't tell you hopw many people I know who didn't know what CASCAR but now that NASCAR has it are interested in going.
Now this classifieds thing you had going, why would Canadian Tire want their name associated with that. IT WASN'T EVEN HAVING ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE RACING SERIES THEY SPONSOR from what I am getting in your explanation of the site. Would you want your company associated with somethign totally unlnown if you had one????
You can say whatever you want, but the bottom line is, every average person who would visit canadiantireseries.com I guarantee you would assume it has somethign to do with the company! Clearly , you say it doesn't but was there a note on the site saying the site is in no way affiliated with Canadian Tire... I think probably not.
I agree with NealeRacing
you do nothing but complain about the CTS and Canadian tire and Nascar. Its your site if you don't like how they are treating you then don't allow posts about it on your site. You seem to think they are reading things on here so don't permote it, the reason I think you are not doing that is because you think eventually Nascar will be a good thing for Canadian racing. And you want your site involved when it happens. I, like everyone else on this site is anxious to know what is going on this season , I am sure there are things going on behind the scenes we can't understand, so we get frustrated but from what I have seen in the past few years Nascar can't hurt. As far a companies comming on board just because the name has changed to nascar, I say who cares as long as they support Canadian racing and the people who put there heart and soul (and usually money out of their own pockets) into the sport they love.
