Default Campaign agaisnt 888

there seems to be a lot of feelings out there in regards to 888 turning there back on ford and there surporters,,,,
what do people think about starting a campaign agaisnt 888 for the rest of the year???
doing anything possible (legally) to prevent them winning bathurst and the championship
,,someone out there must know the guy who tossed the rock back in 1980,,haha,,
,someone must know people who work within 888 who are true ford fans and arent happy in the direction 888 has taken,,like a machinist who be able to stuff up some components,,or an engineer who be able to add a bad programe so a engine lean out an blow up

actions always speak louder than words,, so instead of sitting here crying about it lets make it as hard as possible for 888 untill they f--k off to holden

i to am ****ed off but i dont think deliberate sabotage is an intelligent thing to do

just dont buy their merchandise stuff and if you use a sponsors product change to something else
and let them know why you are changing -that will do more harm than good to them
sponsors do worry about losing market share

When Whincup gets another podium this year.

Boo the hell out of him until he wishes he went to NASCAR instead.


Speaking of which, SBR should get Ambrose back for next year so they can show 888 how it's done.

Yeah I'm a little peeved... lol

There is a discussion on this in the pits.. There should not be any references to sabotage or illegal or potentially dangerous acts to just get them back.

The best way is stop supporting and get the sponsors to think that their investment isn't worthwhile

Sorry to post in an already closed thread but your attitude is appalling. Maybe we should do everything possible to get you out of a Ford.
