I haven't been around on the forums for a hell of a long time, but some of you will know me.

I race motor sport, cars, in a National series and I recently participated in the curtain raiser for the A1 series here in South Africa. For those that don't know about the A1 Gran Prix, it's the World Cup of Motorsport.

I've only been racing Nationals for about 6 months, and while I don't have go-karting experience, I placed 14 out of 24 drivers on the Durban A1 circuit. This is competing against global go-karting champions and racing veterans.

To the point, I'm looking for some NG stickers to place on the car. The only reason for this is because I have a few friends who have submitted projects to NG, and scored higher than 4.20, and I was once programming in Flash to submit some of my work purely for NG. It's a bit of a morale issue for the time I wasted in AS.

I unfortunately can't buy stickers as I don't have a credit card and Pay-pal doesn't operate here in South Africa.

Someone please donate some stickers to this racing team. We don't need sponsors to keep the team running, but I would like to have the NG token on my vehicle as it would be a boost to young entrepreneurs. The person that donates me stickers will also have their full, or desired, name posted on the car as long as it's not offensive.

You can contact me at jun[at]rgtracing[dot]co.za or jun[at]jmk[dot]co.za. You can also view my profile at www.juniorkruger.co.za.

I beg you not to fill this topic with the usual bullshit that NG General normally brings about.

If you don't have paypal or a credit card or anything, then there really isn't any way to order NG stickers, but you could always make your own with a label maker and a pic of the NG tank.

Hey i wouldn't mind sponsering you to have a few stickers. How do you mean though? Giving you the stickers, or the money to get them?

I need the stickers delivered to me.

I'm unable to purchase them myself. I have the money to buy thousands, but there is no way I can actually pay for them. The banks here in RSA are full of shit.

There is no issue in getting money to pay back the sticker-sponsor, but getting the money to them is the problem.

Sponser me to buy stickers.

Jun,

I'll email you too, but I've got a hefty roll of them, so I'm happy to chuck a few in the mail to you. Don't worry about the writing.. I don't need advertising. I'd rather some pay you for the space. :)

Drop me a mail at eveningshift@newgrounds.com with your address.

Once again, EveningShift saves the day.

If you had bothered to read Jun's first thread, he stated;

I unfortunately can't buy stickers as I don't have a credit card and Pay-pal doesn't operate here in South Africa.

So my purpose, smartass, is to send him some stickers.

What was the purpose of your post again?

even with this i would still email wade..
if your series has any tv coverage (and by looking at the amount of sponsers on your car i say it must) it would be an ideal opportunity for newgrounds..
reach into the SA audience.

etc etc etc

My apologies. I went on the assumption that he had already looked to see if Paypal was a possibility. He seems to have ruled it out for whatever reason.

I simply offered to send him some stickers for free, to help his situation.

Evidently, you don't understand the concept of charity, preferring to give him the option of paying for something after I had kindly offered to send some.

Whilst I may have been incorrect and not checked the link, something which I will happily admit, I believe that you could not have possibly made me look like a jackass after offering to send said stickers to him at my own expense.

I'd recommend that you be a little more lenient and less judging when replying to people who have clearly been rude neither to you nor the topic starter.

Please take your flavoured vitamins.

I cannot use Pay-pal. The banks here do not allow transfers. Please try to understand this.

What I offered was that I would do a direct transaction to a debit account through my bank.. this is the only means possible as the NG admin do not accept this.

Talk to Eveningshift like that again and I'll have to fly over there myself and beat you even more ugly.

On the other-hand, I've organised some stickers though an NG member. If they don't arrive, oh well, but if they really do, NG will get some good publicity :)

Keep well.

I'm not insulting your judgement, but I think you don't participate in any sports with real competiveness.

I'll draw in a slack example:
You have an athletic event. One guy has better studs on his boots so he is able to run faster due to traction and weight issues.
One-make series eliminates this cheque-book method and allows everybody to run freely. It's like letting everybody wear the same gear.

Point is, it comes down to skill to win and not because you have the funding.

If you have a bank account, I can transfer the funds.

As scary as this will sound to people that have no experiance in transfers, I'll need your bank details. I'll do an electronic transfer to your account.

This whole ordeal would be easier if the Fulps just accepted direct transfers. Funny part about this is that I won't benefit from NG. NG will benefit from me :(

Wade needs to send me stickers.

Hey, you race VW's, that's cool...

I have a question. How exactly did you end up racing cars for a living? This is one thing that I've loved the idea of, but unfortunately I can't ever seem to find schools or anything involved with professional driving. Does such a place even exist, and is it in north america?

Also, good luck with the stickers. I'm way too poor to even buy some myself, so I can't do much to help you :(

You could contact him on myspace , which he usually checks often.
