Wow, is that a scare campaign or not?
I hope that any company I am involved with doesn't get scrutinised by him.
They are initially major backers of #51 Tasman team for this year with a reduction to "large" sponsors later. I admit to not knowing in-depth details about them but I hope the tasman team are smarter than that.
Just to be sure I'll keep my money in my pockets.

Just read the article in SMH, very interesting. I wonder if the sporting clubs etc have seen the colour of the money. Re the magic fuel potions, has anyone seen these for sale?. I'm very pessimistic about such stuff but would be more than happy to trial them in the interest of all possible consumers. No doubt other forumites would also. Several years ago a friend became a distributor for
similar stuff under the Fortron name. The distributor was also from
Perth. I used
several bottles in a trial but was unable to measure any increased fuel economy
as promised by pages of testimonials, so I put them in the same box as the
Hiclones & Shooroo etc. Friend went bust on the venture as
well...oldbaz.

Alan Bond of Americas cup fame used to own Channel 9 too............didn't help in the longrun.
Sunland indy 500 is another one that comes to mind.
