I personally would like to thank Comp Cams for being such a great contingency sponsor that has supported Stock and Super Stock class racing for many years.

Brad,how many companies that ae stickered on your car do you have a favorable opinion about?As in paying on time,paying at all,having to chase or just plain stiffing you?
After all,your sticker display on your car is free advertising for them.

Ed,

To backup what Brad said about Comp Cams, I can truthfully say I qualified for 11,700.00 worth of NHRA & Contingency awards from winning SS at Norwalk in 2010. I recieved ALL OF IT. Did I have to have a few conversations with manufactures' pertaining to serial numbers, receipts, etc. ......sure. But at the end of the day....the system worked for me. All money was paid by October.

Just my .02....... Thanks to all the companies for your participation!

This is what I am saying. If you are happy with the company buy their product, promote the product etc.
It's all about advertising.

As a team, Beth, Tony, and I were in six (6) finals last year.
Both NHRA and IHRA.
Everyone paid us as posted except one company. Thank you all.

Only one (1) stiffed us on a technicality.

Lokar.

We had their C-4 dipstick and tube, just not the specific one which they claim that they post for. The rep told us they do not make a "NHRA" kit for a C-4 so they cannot pay us even though we had the one they do make on the car.
After a hour of BS, double talk, and diatribe over the phone we gave up.
Sorry to say we are a dealer for them as well.
Made us feel all warm and fuzzy to have so much of their product in stock, promote and sell it, then get stiffed.
I guess they needed the $100 more than we do.

So beware extra careful in selecting your locking dipstick and tube if you are doing so based on a class contingency supporter.
