OMFG! that is fucking awesome is Jabbasworld mentioned in there?

EDIT: now that I fully read it. I guess it's better you wouldn't mention it actually. So how did you get in contact with them?

No - the author dug up the website names himself.

I have my contacts :twisted: - and they made the right calls, not even on my request, but out of their own frustration at wanting to see the story get some airtime.

:D

Congrats RC.. Is your name really Paul? it's mine to :P . Actually i would understand if you don't answer that one seeing that your address was mysteriously known by the Big Bro's over at GM.. Anyways that's great that your plight got some coverage, good luck and keep us posted :)

That's pretty damned sweet RC, glad to see you've got some media coverage of the shit that GM has been pulling. Makes your stance a little firmer from a legal perspective I'd think hehe.

Great story...would have been nice to see JW mentioned of course.

Yeah - apart from the details of the story - Mr Morrison was able to pretty much see the image and it's result on any Vette website he visited.

He is a sharp chap and was able to get the info he needed fairly easily and quickly.

:)

Front Cover Story BABEEEEE :P

GM = OWNED!

I respect people who stick up for themselves and fight for a matter of principle against big companys, who in this case blame others of stealing but can't even contain their own images. :fist:

Amazing story, never thought it would go this far.

A 2 page article in Autoweek about somthing that happend to you is pretty damn cool. To be in an article that's between others that tell about ledgends like Valentino Bilbao, Jakie Steward, ... = awesome

You're now kinda like a car celebrity :P well at least a bit :wink:

hahahahaha...damn, very good stuff RC, I guess revenge is served =)

No matter how big a company is, they usually don't wanna mess with the press ... coz it's all about brand image. Now GM sounds like sore loser to everyone
