Thanks for all of your compliments and support! What a great support Team! I sent them an e-mail so we'll wait and see now.
I might be looking at this the wrong way but did you give them permission to put your car in the mag? From what I read, they found your car while surfing the web. So this means they sold mags by selling your hard work and never asked or informed you about it? I think I would be a little upset if they pulled that with me. But then again I build my cars for me and don’t show them or I would never get to have any fun on the street.
I was totally unaware of this but I suppose the Internet is considered the public domain. I'm just flattered that they considered it print-worthy

At least they didn't link the video.ls1tech.com page where you smoked those vette's!!!
I'm not sure what I'ld do if I went to go to Ls1Tech and got a "page can not be displayed" error... I'ld probably freak.

I'ld like to see your ride on either Horsepower.tv or there sister site musclecar.tv
Maybe get them to install a roll cage for ya
