Default Where's Shannons?

Hey

I just noticed that Shannons doesn't show up in the sponsor area. Is it my eyes playing up or are they gone?

Thanks
Krissy

Well they could be backing out? Who knows since they dont want to attract car hoons but car enthusiasts. Plus if your done some mods to your car and your car has extractors and a few other mods. Expect to pay $$$. Well, they couldn't miss a supercharger under my bonnet in my clubbie from Starr Performance. Once you start to pay this sort of price. They allow you to have unlimited mofifications. I am planing on getting shannons on my website very soon and a few other workshops and suppliers also.

Nice theory leo!

actrob is also on leave. Maybe their sponsorship was for a defined period, and that period ended?

Default Shannons

Well to be honest. I got in contact with them two weeks ago and spoke to the marketing manager in Sydney about joining my website. She meantioned that they are reviewing all sponsorships at the current moment. I plan to send her a new Pilot of my show and hopefully get them on board.

They asked us to remove the forum from public view, so we did.

Did they give you any reason why or did they just request it and that was it?

To be honest, I can't remember off hand why as I don't deal with sponsorship issues. They aren't withdrawing their sponsorship as far as I know.

Xa-coupe is correct in saying that the forum was removed from public view at their request. The sponsorship is still active which is why the logo remains at the top but it is always optional whether a sponsor chooses to use a forum of their own or not.

Cheers
