What does it matter the site had a classified site for car manufactures and resellers that sell tires in Canada. What is it your business anyways to know what it is for. I own Tireseries.com to do you want to know what that is for as well. Maybe they should ask for that as well as it has tires in the name.

They are the big losers in this as would havegot atone of free advertising here and now they get nothing as Canadian Tire will be referred as Nascar ct series or some thing else as it is my site and I can do this. it is OK to use the Canadian Tire name in messages here but in the domain name it is not.

Why didn't they become the number 1 sponsor when it was CASCAR?? Why don't people answer that question. Now they are the big savor in motorsport in Canada as the NASCAR name is there. They could have did this before and kept in all Canadian but they didn't

So answer that question someone I answered the other.

OK, here is your answer. Instead of complaining about what a company didn't do in the past, how about we embrace them for what they are doing now. So they didn't sponsor the series when it was CASCAR, so what? They have been involved for several years with Gibbons car, how about that? I can tell your pissed because you are fighting with them, but my only advice is suck it up and recognize that they are doing something good for Canadian Motorsports. Spending time stewing over what people/companies did or didn't do in the past will only lead to a sad existance......

Oh so now they are the big hero's here right? If NASCAR wasn't involved they wouldn't have on a thing and as you can see NASCAR is the name here and not Canadian Tire.

I don't need to suck up anything I'm not mad because I lose nothing here they do.

I never said anything about them sponsoring a car and yes that is good of them to do that but now they are the hero's as they are sponsoring the series along with the Nascar name.

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.

So you can say all you want they would have let the series die if NASCAR never got involved.

Also why don't they sponsor Peter Shepard who is a Canadian drive trying to make it in Nascar. I would be impressed if they did that.

I'm not the only one feels this way as I have gotten emails from people that wont say it hear as NASCAR may not welcome them to the series if they did post their thoughts here.

I would tend to agree with Marcisfan on this one. Although I do understand your point. Why not call you instead of the whole lawyer thing. But come on. I wouldn't say you're caving if you just gave them what they wanted. Be the bigger person here. I bought a T shirt at Texas Motor Speedway the second year the cup series raced there and I liked the simplicity of it. Many will remember this. "Shut up and race".

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.

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.

See there is the point you say who care if Canadians don't own it. I do as it should have been Canadian owned it was run that way for how many years. It just goes to show how you care about the country you live in. I would rather watch true Canadian racing and you can do this at tracks all over Canada. Maybe we should hand over everything in Canadian to the US??

As for what you say NealeRacing it is different when in domain names and copyrights but I'm not going to explain it again and you seem to keep wanting to bitch about it. I would love to see great racing in Canada but I'm seeing the same thing year after year with are largest series. People keep thinking because Nascar has a stake in it the series is going to be different??

Here is what will be different local Tracks pay more to us the NASCAR name and driver fees will be more most likely. Didn't this happen when Nascar had the Nascar Dodge weekly series?? Oh where is that series now and how log did it last???

NealeRacing you seem to be try to take jabs at me every chance you get and that is fine I can handle it but one thing you seem not to see is Canadian Tire doesn't stand up to Nascar as they are paying big bucks to pay for the series and Nascar has the name NascarCandianTireSeries.com which has the name of CT it but there is nothing that links it to Canadian Tire just shows all Nascar stuff. Isn't that a kick in the face t them they pay all the money and they get nothing??

Oh maybe it is mentioned you can by NASCAR gear from them which still doesn't relate to the Series in Canada. More time and effort is put into making sure the Race in Montreal is mentioned.

I find this amusing, forget the domain name as they will get it when they ask for it and I never contacted them and asked for anything and I'm not a cybersquatter.
