    [yeesh, I know I'm going to come off as being on the other side... I'm not. I'm behind you on this.]

    Sponsors? what does that mean? These are personal friends (yes, I'm sure some are)? I'm assuming they are sponsors in a monetary way. You see the point. Even if the club is non-profit I'm sure you could make a connection between a lot of business from there to BMC and they're "owned" operated by some of the same people. Even if they're separate on paper you still have some influence/control on or in both. One could argue that it is beneficial to BMC as a business to maintain and grow the Mustang club.

    With such a large and established club maybe you could talk/meet directly with someone in that department at Ford and maybe come to terms that way instead of getting the boiler plate treatment? Sounds like you're getting the "automatic" standardized initial response type of thing now.

    Actually alot of people I term sponsors are people like the Machine Shop that She PAID to port her heads etc etc... Vortech since she runs their Supercharger etc...people are actually asking for a new calandar this year after recieving one last year. Companies like to see their products being used. She made me a calandar for my office of my SRT8...and I can no longer print/purchase that lol.

    Kris,

    try using a different company to make your calendar. It seems to me that this company has been hit by copyright infringements and is no longer taking any risks.

    When is BMC going to finally become a vendor here?

    Not all of us around here hate Fords ...
    However, this new "protecting the name" thing they're up to is stupid. Lets take the entire fan base that has been built for what, 40 years (Mustang) and more (Ford) and SHOOT it all to hell. Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb. :dumb:
