Sunoco May Sue Shell

i just heard it reported that Sunoco may try and sue Shell to make them take down the Kevin Harvick posters at their gas stations

this is just going too far

Good grief..... these sponsors need to stop whining and just be glad that they are in NASCAR.

At who's gas stations, Sunoco's or Shell's???

Sorry, but one company cannot tell a competitor what they can or cannot advertise at their own outlets.

Now, if Shell's poster of Harvick includes a Sunoco logo, they can sue to have their logo removed from the poster.

Surely Sunoco is bright enough to remove any Harvick posters at it's own station without a lawsuit... But then that's an internal problem, nothing to do with either Harvick or Shell.

Can't imagine any other reason for such a suit.

I agree ... unless of course they have the lowest priced gas in town.

Re: Sunoco May Sue Shell

There are a couple of threads that this could have been put in, but I chose this one, due to that fact that there are less posts in this thread.

Check this guy out: Rants

Re: Sunoco May Sue Shell

This has been coming for a while now and will only get worse. At some point the France clan will sell out and NASCAR will become yet another reality show.

Oh my God, not another reality show!!!! The number of reality shows that I watch is: NONE!!!! I can't stand them, there is nothing real about them. I just saw that they are starting another one about being a forensics investigator, so unfortunately, you may be right!! The sad face isn't because you may be right, it's for all the reality shows.
