THe rules state if you have a show/event that is geared toward a charity or is %100 non-profit than you can have a thread up. But you would have to prove that it is non-profit and a event that pays out a cash prize to the top 3 to me is profitable event. If the cash purse is judged on how many show, then the more advertisement you get the bigger the purse.

    Otherwise if you just are holding something for the scene, in the scene and are making anything than the rules say you can make a thread on here about it.

    Then also if its a shop trying to advertise a event/show at there place thats not a sponsor of here there, using IA to get traffic for themselves. Thats a huge slap in the face to every other LLC company and shop that pays IA monthly or yearly to advertise there business on here!

    so how much does gadsm kick back to ia for import showdown?

    the races definitely aren't for charity, but i can assure you, and provide whatever proof to whoever that we haven't made a dime off any of the races we put on...i have never put my time and effort behind a shop anywhere before until this place came along, if you ever meet jj you will understand, hes all about getting people to participate, even if he has to spend his money and time to further it along

    If they paid thats between Atif/Paul/Julio.

    But maybe, if you are going *******Shop is holding something, and that shop is not a sponsor then in essence that shop is drawing business for themselves and getting there name out through here. Thats a business problem, not something about the scene! Granted the business might involve the scene, but a bigger % is geared for the shops name than the scene!

    i agree 100%...like i said, i challenge the current sponsors to put something on for us starving for some competition...unfortunately, b/c it isn't their niche or it may not profitable they don't...but the ones who do get shit on

    I agree there needs to be more shop events. Hell even MCE rents out the track 2-4 days a year!
