I don't think anyone was trying to make fun of quad_m. Everyone knows Tony's a good guy. Most of us were just asking for clarification of his original post because "sponsorship " in most instances means the product is free, so most of us were just asking for confirmation.
I, for one, do appreciate what quad_m is trying to do for us.

so yes some misunderstood Tony, and yes was not nice, giving away a car and give me a fake m5 rear etc...
thx no probs Tony is nicer than getting upset.
PS: these sponsoring for free I have only heared in the USA so far here in EU nothing is for free!!!
you can have stickers advs you get reduction not a GIFT!

thats why I wanted to do this with someone from here but you already gave me the feedback!
anyways my offer still stands for one member willing to participate and give us the whole story..
for me the brakes are as much as beautiful and strong as Brembos etc..
unbelieveable braking power and massive calipers do I have to say more?
