Anyone else have a problem with the address trying to reply to the confirmation email?

Mine looks like this: Champ Car 85389445!449546!416854563 <subscribe@postsnet.com>

This was from Tuesday afternoon.

Just a hunch that the long number is a tracking number of some sort. I had the big number too, but the last digits are different than yours.

Like A1 or not, it's entertaining and MarkC. is and always was a CHAMPCAR supporter. :thumbup:

nascar speed channel and racer mag :thumdown:

[RaceGrrl]

Why pay for a site where half the stuff is made up when you can just read any other Champ Car message board and hear the same rumors? It's no secret that AR1 takes things from other sites and posts them as rumors on their own. No thanks. :thumdown: (Speaking as a CCWS fan, not as site admin, btw)

I remember him jumping on the 'unification' bandwagon days before the bankrupcty hearing last year.

I agree with RaceGrrl.

[Ankf00]

I heard that MarkC hates puppies...

and jesus!!

[Methanolandbrats]

I want a free hat :)

[Andrew Longman]

I got an email from them this morning.

I'm just glad they asked.

Anything that shows they remember who really pays the bills is good.

Agree obout paying for it, but rumors etc. is a same story with all sites and rumor is a rumor and why is CHAMPCAR supporting it?

[G.]

Agree obout paying for it, but rumors etc. is a same story with all sites and rumor is a rumor and why is CHAMPCAR supporting it?could there be a new official alliance?

[Methanolandbrats]

could there be a new official alliance? Well, Mark C. has been in the trenches longer than anyone else I can think of.

[Suzuki]

I want a free hat :)

Me too, i hope i was before #300 :confused:

[Methanolandbrats]

Me too, i hope i was before #300 :confused: Hat's from Bangladesh are cheap.......it would be a smart move on Champcar's part to give away a freighter full of em..........sort of an outfit the troops move. Throw in some stickers too so the rolling army can advertise the series :)

[Sean O'Gorman]

My problem with AR1 isn't so much the outrageous rumors, but his constant pushing of his agenda as fact. A news article comes up about a NASCAR driver breaking a rib in a testing accident and suddenly the article says that it is why Champ Car shouldn't race on ovals, etc. :rolleyes:

What's sad is that apparently PG and KK think he represents a large portion of the fanbase. If KK was smart he'd push Mark out the door of his jet during his next transatlantic flight.

[Methanolandbrats]

I hear tell there's a place where you can get some red ones... :gomer: :p See what I mean..........advertising.............brand recognition.............

[nrc]

What's sad is that apparently PG and KK think he represents a large portion of the fanbase.

Bah! "AutoRacing1" offered to let Champcar give a deal to their CCIC members. It doesn't necessarily mean they endorse him as representative of the fan base. If that were the case why bother with the survey, I'm sure AR1 could answer all those questions for them.

[Sean O'Gorman]

AR1 has had a banner ad on the Champ Car front page for some time now. It would be easy for them to deny him.

[racer2c]

well, in the survey (which didn't give me a confirmation page) I made sure to put OC as my favorite racing website. Hopefully everyone else here did too. :)

[RichK]

Speed Channel's SPEEDTV.com referenced AR1 last week for a news item.

That does it! I'm startin' me a web page!! Hardcard here I come!!!!!!!!! :)

Why would they deny him? If he's paying for the spot his money is green just like anyone else's.

[RaceGrrl]

Hey, we'll give Champ Car a deal too- FREE membership at OffCamber. Lemmings need not apply. :D

[JoeBob]

I've had Mark steal my posts word for word and post them on his site. And, we all know, I don't know diddly poo.

That said, this is a great tool for ChampCar. What they're really doing is building a database of their fans. It will help them market to us, which I don't think is a bad thing at all.

[skaven]

I'm an Inner Circler-er now too. Can't wait for the season to start.

Sounds like they'll be offering some additional products - cruise with drivers, pace laps with drivers, etc. :thumbup:

Smart move and Champcar in the same sentence? :gomer: These guys could market Wal-Mart into the ground.

I'd settle for the Kneifel home clown make-up kit. :laugh:

[datachicane]

Well, I signed up, but no confirmations other than the replybot. Where do I get my Race Director discount code? Do I have a membership number?

[RHR_Fan]

I signed up yesterday and hadn't gotten a reply or confirmation so I signed up again about 20-25 minutes ago and haven't gotten a reply. I'll sign up again if I haven't gotten something tomorrow afternoon.

stalker. :p

[JohnnyQ]

I guess the CC staff already went through the free hats? :shakehead

I want to go on the cruise with the Champcar owners and drivers. Ahhh.... sitting in a chaise lounge throwin down the Corono's and tossin the used up lemon wedges into Philipes hair. :gomer:

[RHR_Fan]

Why don't leave them alone for gods sake. :D

Check your grammar. :p

~Nicole

[Anteater]

I just received an e-mail inviting me to take advantage of my $5.00 CCIC member discount for Race Director. Things are coming along nicely! :thumbup:

[dando]

If you have a spam filter or box, make sure you check to determine if their e-mail was caught as spam. I received my confirmation just minutes after signing up.

-Kevin

[RHR_Fan]

I've signed up 5x with no luck. Anyone else having this problem?

~Nicole

[cart7]

I've already been getting spammed regularily from CCWS to sign up again this year for RD. I wonder if one of these will include a discount code. Why do I have a feeling I'll be getting regular spam emails from CCWS whenever they're trying to dump all their 3XX T-shirts at half price. Oh well. :)

[cart7]

Yep, just checked the old email and there it is. $5.00 off the $29.95 subscription price. :gomer:

[trish]

I've signed up 5x with no luck. Anyone else having this problem?

~Nicole
I signed up 1x with no luck, and that was on the same day the offer was made available. So far I've refused to sign up again. I may have to give in though.

Typical...they have there core fans lock, stock and barrel. Great way to piss them off. :shakehead

[RHR_Fan]

Going to go on the advice of a friend and wait a few days before I try again. I don't need to "stress" over a problem as small as this.

~Nicole

[Tim]

3 times now with no reply. I'm not giving up yet though.

[Steve99]

Johnny, did you get lost on your way to trackforum? :gomer:

[KLang]

Got my Race Director discount email today. All signed up and ready for a race. :thumbup:

ps. It says on the Race Director payment confirmation page that the CCIC packages will be sent out in 2 to 4 weeks.

[trish]

I just tried again (third times a charm) and I got the email right away. It didn't go to my bulk mail folder either. I'm not sure what the problem was before, but maybe now is the time to try again.

[RHR_Fan]

I tried again. Nada.

~Nicole

[Al Czervik]

I can't believe I misspelled "Off Camber" on the questionaire

D'oh :gomer:

It's the thought that counts. :thumbup:

[dando]

What's the scoop on the RD discount? I received my signup confirmation, which I confirmed, but only e-mail I received since was an offer to signup for RD @ full price. :confused:

-Kevin

[racer2c]

The only email I received was for 5% off RD. No confirmation of signing up.

[KLang]

I sent you a PM with a link to the discount sign-up page.

[dando]

I sent you a PM with a link to the discount sign-up page.
Sweet. Thx. Doesn't look like their signup system is running too smoothly, eh? :(

-Kevin

[RHR_Fan]

I've tried a few more times and nothing. I even tried with a different e-mail address thinking it might work, but nothing. Guess I'll keep trying every once in a while.

~Nicole

[dando]

Almost three weeks l8r, and I just received my RD discount e-mail, as well as a couple of other e-mails from CCWS today. :confused: Almost seems like the folks running the CCWS site are running that Indy something or other site... :shakehead

-Kevin

[JohnnyQ]

I got my free HAT!



Just kidding. :)

[nrc]

For the people having problems, have you tried signing up with an email address from a different provider (like myway.com or gmail.com)? Unfortunately the rocket surgeons who did the email confirmations used return addresses for the messages that are not legal according to the rules for email addresses. Some ISP's may simply throw them away as illegal, others might can them as spam.
