The last time Velden had tobacco sponsorship in the USA was the Kool sponsorship in 1985. Series sponsorship started to die in the late 80's. A couple of teams were fortunate enough to have funding for the whole season while the rest of us traveled race to race to be assigned local sponsors for the weekend (barely enough to cover expenses?) Vinyl graphics came in handy back then. Of course the front runners got the event pick of the litter while the back markers got the crumbs.Quote:

"In Sweden the state-run monopoly on alcohol sales, Systembolaget, sponsored an advertising campaign called Spola Kröken, or Flush the Booze, which tried to convince Swedes to drink in moderation, and to avoid drinking strong alcohol"

Appears to be "forced retirement". I don't see their APX and APR programs developing any flight feathers either. Only complete rigs I see are the ones prepped for photo events.

I just found this pin from a dealer meeting in 2009 I was lucky enough to attend. I cant remember If they had the blendster Seadoo/Skiddoo 800cc straight pipe blender or the 50hp E tec outboard blender at that meeting. Either way it was a blast and a highlight of my career in the boat biz. https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/e...5/16/1f49a.png
