Chris..let me be clear on something here..
as for this business relations I want you to understand that my part in this was as a facilitator..If anyone needs clarification on this let me first start off by saying that I was helping with this because I saw it as an AWESOME OPPORTUNITY to get a kick ass 3X here in Toronto.
I have zero business affiliation with the promoters. I have known them for a number of years on a personal level. They know of my interest in dB Drag and we've talked about having a competiton if they opportunity every arose. Then when it came to be that they'd have a 2 day outdoor event it was a perfect opportunity to see if a dB Drag event could be incorporated. I met with the promoters, I told them that we have a wicked following here and that the local guys would LOVE to have a dB Drag competition. I told them that if we were to have an event it's go big or go home. Thus making it a 3X event.
I told them that they people here were hungry for a 3X event and what better place to have it then at their show. After further discussion it was agreed and the steps were taken to get it going.
I dont believe I needed to go into details on this however since everyone keeps adding they BS into this I figured I'd shed some light on my end as well
