I think this is the Chevy Camaro Funny Car body. How did NHRA tech approve this latest version of the Bat-Mobile?

I could not care less who sponsors John Force. However as a taxpayer I would rather General motors pay back the 9.6 Billion that WE lost on the Obama stock bailout fiasco. After we are reimbursed then GM can sponsor Anything they prefer.

GM has to advertise to stay in competition with all of the other brands out there. This is a cost of business. It costs about the same to sponsor JFR as it does to run ads on the super bowl. The sponsorship is one way of advertising. GM would not be doing motorsports sponsorships if it did not pay off for them. I am sure Ford is taking the money that Force was getting and moving it to a different racing or sports sponsosrhip/ advertising venue. I am not sure if the bail out was a loan or just a hand out to keep GM afloat and keep all of their employees working. The tax payers will probably never see that money back directly.

My, my - we certainly have got off topic.
Can't we get back to complaining about John Force robbing all the money from the "Give COPO Racers More Stuff" budget!

I stopped caring about sponsors when the Army gave The Sarge and Daddy Don all that money. I can't believe anyone ever joined the Army because of that Carnival show. Giving that kid the Sarge name is a slap to all of us who had to work hard to try to make grade. Just My Opinion.
