Doh! You're right. I didn't realize it. If you go to the sponsor list and put in a Seattle area zip code and 100 miles nothing comes up. I checked specifically under Turbo Tech and see they don't have their address listed. Same for Fikse. Maybe one of the mods should get their address put into the system.

Turbo Technology Inc
6211 South Adams St Suite B
Tacoma, WA 98409
Phone: 253.475.8319
Fax: 253.474.7413

Fikse USA, Inc
6851 S 220th St
Kent, WA 98032 USA
Tel: 253-872-3888
Fax: 253-437-0187

Are there any others we just don't know about?

And they don't show up either. I tested a theory and their ZIP code doesn't work with the system. It's too new. That's 3 Seattle area sponsors that you won't find with a ZIP code search. Is it an anti-Seattle conspiracy????

MODS: It's past time to update the ZIP code registry! 2000 data is waaay too old. I'm sure the sponsors would like to know potential customers can find them.

Alright, I'm curious now, so I'm going through the entire sponsor list looking at addresses. I found another:

Abear Motorsports
6700 Waterton Circle
Mukilteo, WA 98276 (another ZIP that is too new)
http://www.AbearMotorsports.com

That makes 4 sponsors within driving range, and not one of them will show up on a ZIP based search.

As a customer who likes to support local business, especially sponsors of our community here, I ask you to please fix this!

At least a year until I get the wheels. They have to wait until I get the motor where I want it.

I have to check the sponsor list constantly but not using the zip code feature. Guess its time to tell Brains to get it done.

I'm going to add them to the top in the sticky, post up if you know of any more that are local.


And yea, it was sweet to see Fikse a sponsor...but that came from a rather funny story

It was only slightly cheaper to sponsor the board then give Tony a set of wheels that he was asking for...

I just swung in to their place today and got to meet Danny. Pretty cool guy and as I expected not much of a showroom. Well who needs a showroom when you got a product that sells itself!

Personally, I was surprised they were open to walk-ins at all. The hardest part about it is finding their office, being that it's all the way around the rear of the complex.
