'Cheks, I hate to break it to you, but he with the most money makes the rules. Why do you think that none of the big brands actually have to go thru the AMA sound test at races (and by that, I mean the corp. teams, not individuals). The industry is the big brands, and everyone knows it. They're not about to go an bite the hand that feeds them. It's not sound business, and that's the way it is. No one says it has to be ethical, just profittable. For the most part, the mag's do try to be fair, but to say something really negative about a companies product, when that company forks out thousands, if not millions, of dollars in ad fee's just wouldn't be that bright. They use that money to pay for the mag, the etra goodies and most importantly the paychecks of everyone, including the guys that do the testing. Can you say 'trickle down'? I'm not trying to slam you at all, I just think that you're being a little nieve.
BTW, great post Boss! :aj: :yeehaw:
