We get a lot of press for some reason, but never any compensation.  Cant imagine
why someone at Moss would use a pic that has a TRF logo on it, but that photo is
from nearly 10 years ago anyway.  I've always been surprized that advertizers 
dont
seem to have to get a release to use ones image, Grassroots used a photo of the
TR3 on their T-shirt years ago and all they did was flip the image to make it 
look
like a right hand driver but the car is unmistakeable.  And Mid-Ohio used a 
photo
of the car for the event T-shirt and poster for the first all TR race years ago.
We discovered that one when we got to town and saw the poster up in a gas 
station.

I'll have to find myself a copy of the magazine to put in my archives.
