We have to remember they do not have to pay it, they pay it to say "thanks for using our product" we can at least send a note back saying "thanks for your generosity"
I know I am going to get busted for this but I do believe he is right and I think it would help us all.

BB bust away.

FYI; SMP pays contingency on the spot for company's, some as much as $150.00 to win!
I can collect over $300.00 in contingency for a regular nights win, paid in cash on the spot!
Did you put that Blaster decal on for free because your gratefull for there product. Of course not and that's why they pay for us putting there sticker on out nice paint jobs. The sponsors also get advertising rights at the event which is valuable and I always thank anyone that helps out and your right we should but the vendors are rewarded or they wouldn't do it because it's all part of their advertising budget.
