Is this the car from the burnout video that blew the motor?

Okay, so Thompson doesn't want to be associated with Jared and the Monster Camaro because of the Power Cruise video.
That is understandable.
Why would they choose to use images of the Monster Camaro on their Ebay listings?
That just doesn't add up. Especially when they are using an entity like Monster Energy. This is a company that sued a website just for having a logo that looks kinda sorta similar to the Monster Energy logo.
IDK, seems like Thompson would be opening themselves up to a lawsuit from Monster.
That aside, they are openly associating themselves with something they claim they do not want to be associated with.
Seems to me like there is more going on here.
Probably just more guerrilla marketing.

However most of the import "RiceKiller" cars I would see were old beat up integras and civics with a fart can, intake, and wheels, however they made the RiceKiller cut b/c of the lack of a bodykit. And when they would leave, they would drive the POS like a bat out of hell. IMO, the only reason RKC got popular was because there were a select few of V8 guys, with very nice rides making good amounts of power

Haha, we are working on it. I do not do the website work so it is much more timely than I would like to get that kind of thing done. We have an all new website launching in the next month that will make the old one disappear all together.

Jared is a promoter, he sells sponsorship on himself not his car. You run a website with a lot of hits a day and offer advertising which gets attention to the exact audience a vendor is looking for and they will sponsor you in exchange for your presence
It still seems like a poor choice on both parties to have conducted business together.

Ummmm, I don't do burnouts.. and what you fail to realize is this, it's a known fact that people don't give a damn about something they got for free.... entering a burnout contest for the sole purpose to blow an engine is immature and childish..... When you carry a sponsors name and display it, they'd usually like you to act in an appropriate manner...
but you sound about like you're 16-17 anyway so I don't really expect you to understand...
