I just took that this saturday, we'll see what happens (not like I'll much need it in my job, haha). I think that somewhere there's a man grinning from ear to ear because he convinced NCEES that the needed to make it an 8 hour test...

I'm not sure about the insurance, but...

If ls1tech.com had a tax ID, then *you* could buy the car and have the company reimburse you for your expense(s). Since the company's type of business is automotive performance, you could deduct all your mods as well. Just as long as the car becomes the "ls1tech.com official project car," or something like that. Then feature the car in howto articles and features on the website. You could deduct gas too!!!

109(est) sponsors x $250(est) a month for an ad. $27,250 a month. Thats a rough figure, plus he's getting discounted/free parts and labor.

i was thinking it was 100 for the base sponsorship. that money is also divided up between nineball, PSJ, and brains. some has to go toward the server expense, as well as other expesnes. still nice coin though
