and that as well as other acts in my opinion have done more to hurt that families name than any of us could have ever done. Us putting signage on our trailers, front doors and walls of our shops, decals on the windows of our cars, etc, has done nothing but promote the families name and bring it more to the forefront of this hobby. By charging for every single thing that is put out there or threatening a lawsuit, people have said screw it and no longer will promote some of those names. It is very sad. I remember when I joined this site over 10 years ago I barely knew anything about many of these legends and because of the members here I am now very well informed. I do not know anyone personally who is capitalizing off of any one of these legends names but I know several that are proud to display others on their walls, fenders, doors, trailers, etc. Many a friendship has been made because of the reunion and promotion of these legends and many more have been lost over the frivolous bickering and lawsuits from others. It is time it stops and we bring our attention back to where it was originally intended. Dennis Hartweg has rolled over many times in his grave (urn) over some of the petty things that have taken place over the last several years.
