They should at least pay Reedy bonus's, after all they arn't paying any to josh grant but still have two honda's at the front of the pack.
I believe the saying, "why buy the cow when you're getting the milk for free?" would apply here.

Remember when Grant Langston was closing in on his national title? He showed up with new sponsors at the last three rounds, MSR, monster etc. Monster went from a little sticker on his helmet to a full on monster lid by the end. I figured that would happen to Reed by now.

Does anyone know if Reed is in negotiations with any big money sponsors? You have an "aparent" privateer tearing up 95% of the factory and satellite teams yet he is still self-funding most of his campaign. I find it hard to believe there isn't a major energy drink sponsor, vehicle brand, etc that has no interest in sponsoring Reed...

Any thoughts?
I heard he is in negotiations with Pennington Wild Bird Feed & Grass Seed

I figured red bull would have hopped on by now.

The economy may be tough but 15-30 year olds buy that stuff like nobody's business.

From memory both RC & Bubbles were Gatorade supported before the energy drink explosion.

Okay from what I have heard Chad is working out a deal with vodafone for outdoors they liked Australia and are extremely interested in a title sponsor so I would put my money on him having them for outdoors. And for everyone asking why lawerence has arma still kissing his ass is because his agent owns a big hunk of it so its his way of making sure the kid can still get a contract and he can get paid.

I am sure Honda threw something his way to put the Honda Racing on the front plate. I hope Reed gets a title sponsor for outdoors, but if not, I am sure he will make up for it with one next year.

ARMA and Lawrence is because Skeptovic had a falling out with Monster and now owns a large part of ARMA. I don't want this to turn into a 338 thread, or 54, but it will be interesting to see come outdoors.

Chad is getting the basic Honda contingencies that is available to all Honda riders. and in order to get the contingencies, he has to run that sticker on the plate.

A factory rider negotiates his bonus' and then the team takes out an insurance policie to pay for the bonus. Chad would have had to been on that policy before the season started.

Just so you know, Chad took out an insurance policy on himself to get bonus money.
