I SOOO got one. lol

 

Ha ha! Sweet!

Numbers are climbing. They've gained 100 more requests in the last 8 minutes so get moving.

 

MVP...I don't Facebook. Cop me one and I'll send you $ for shipping.

 

AH! I'm not sure if I can, they are doing a 1 per address thing. Do you have a family member or non-car enthusiast friend that would sign up for you? I tried to get a hold of my fiance to have her snag one for you but she's at work and unresponsive.

 

Im at work and the only site thats blocked is facebook... I hope theres a couple of spots left when i get home.

 

Dangit! This just blew up on my local forum and was about to make a thread lol. Speaking of thread, what's the thread for our shift knob anyways? Honestly never planned on getting a new one. But for six bucks hey!

 

10x1.5 is what I'm told.


Find someone with an account Shadow! That blue would look awesome in your car. :3_wink:

*Edit* Oh, just saw your post. I still can't get a hold of her. She's interning at a courthouse, so they're probably in the courtroom now.

 

Yes for mobile internet on my droid

 

Seems like everyones just posting their car model. Hopefully that works cause thats what i posted. Wish they had red like in the pictures but i settled for black. Ive been wanting to get one of these but there normally around 60 to 70 online.

 

we arent suppose to list the thread size, correct? just the color and what kind of car we have?

 

i requested 1

 

and how do they send it out to us? are we suppose to send them our addresses or something? lol

 

They will probably send a mass message to all who participated, asking for shipping details. I don't work for 9K so I don't know, lol.

shadow: do you still need an account? I can get one with my girl's account if you do. what color do you want?

 

Really! My girl hasn't gotten back to me. I'll take it in Blue I really appreciate it, buddy!!!

 

what a great friend ^^

AND did we have to put the thread sizes? or was that the point of listing the car?

 

( They dont have the rainbow shift knob pictured but they have it listed.. so anyone that wants to see what that looks like .... )

 

I ended up having to resubmit my request. The original disappeared. : (

 

Chris, I just saw that lol. Does this mean we're gonna have to keep on reposting?

 

I'm not sure. I had several windows open since I was spreading the word as I signed up, I may have screwed something up. Yours is still there BTW.

Easy way to check. Press ctrl and f, then search for your zip, email, etc. Unfortunately, you will have to click "older posts" several times. lol

 

Chris, an easier way is to go to your profile then look at recent activity and find where it says you posted on their wall.. then just click on "wall" lol

Aaaaaand the fact that I rarely use Facebook is revealed. lol

 

Meh, kinda cool I guess but might look pretty goofy with the 6-speed lockout. Anyway I don't think it's worth posting my email address and location so everyone on FB can see it

 

Beggers cant be choosers but i really wish they had those red ones like in their picture. They look nasty. Mine dissapeared but now its back? It may just be a glitch in facebook because of all the people posting.

 

I deleted my facebook account a while back and don't plan on getting one again. If someone gets one in Black, Teal, or Clear and wants to sell it to me for like $20-$30, hit me up.

 

get a buddy to do it for you. lol

 

whats our thread size!!!!!!!!!!?????

 

According to TWM Performance, 10x1.50

 

Bump it up. They are a longggg way from getting 30k people. And they wont give them away until they get that many. So we need everyone we can get here!

 

Anythoughts to if this would work with the 6spds?

 

I don't know about this.

Logistically its a nightmare.
And how in the WORLD are they going to pull off 30,000 orders? Where did they get the overhead to PRODUCE 30,000 shift knobs (especially for a NEW company thats an LLC) to just... give away? And how in the heck are they going to satisfy the variety of orders requested? Obviously they're made to order as they aren't going to know out of 30,000 shift knobs which colors are in most/least demand.

All I see is bait for snagging a bunch of information for spamming and account hacking.

I like how it states, once 30,000 people are ATTENDING this event..... OK and then the list $13 for "international shipping". How naive are we? Do you think someone "Attending" from the EU to get their "free" tacky dildo shaped shift knob is TRUELY going to CA (and receive a knob in the mail)?

Something just doesn't add up here.

Any thoughts on my suspicions?

Suspiciously, the ONLY thing they seem to carry/sell are these silly knobs.

According to Felicia Bang, they were nearly sold out as of July 6th, posted on their FB 9K Racing page.

Unless either one of these co-owners won the lottery and love giving stuff away, this makes NO SENSE!

I agree. How much do you think they could get for a list of 30,000 legitimate email accounts if they sold them? I don't see anything good coming out of this. It reminds me of the scam awhile ago with this company giving out free pairs of shoes--just to try to get your info and spam the crap out of it.
