I sent this thought to Alex after reading on a post that he was going to have to cut back on his racing events due to the higher cost of gas. I am guessing that his crew cab pulling Money Maker would get about 5 gallons to the mile. I thought it would seem a decent gesture from all the Ford enthusiasts who Alex has so willingly helped. His reply was he would never think of asking friends to help sponsor. I am new to this but it seems to me that if everyone pooled something to help with his costs that we all can enjoy seeing him smiling at the next award ceremony. After all can't we offer to help sponsor so we can keep a Ford at the top? I hope someone knows how to set up a plan or idea of how we can set up a account or fund.
I did send out the concept and got this as a reply.
"$2 from 3000 people would go a long way for gas. Alex is a great guy and he does offer free advice all the time."
I grew up hearing that good things happen to good people and in the few months I have been here I have seen Alex putting allot of work and advice into all of us needing his ability, so I felt he deserved a offer.
===========
Below is what I sent him and he turned me down so I thought I would by pass him and put it in the peoples hands and see what happened.
========
Alex,
Was just wondering if you ever had the idea to see if all the thousands of people you have helped and saved them hundreds of thousands in advice and answers would be willing to chip into a pool to help with the higher gas prices so you did not have to cut back on races? I figure that if everyone chipped in a couple of bucks you could drive the crew cab a few extra places and we could see a Mustang at the top and not something else? Don't know if you and Steve would want to pose it or not but it was just a idea. Maybe a sticker on the back saying something like " with support from friends and family at www.mustangsandmore.com At least it would give the other makes something to read at the end of a run.

I hope Alex doesn't mind my putting this up, he can delete it if he wants.

I think this is a good idea, I know he sure has helped me many times, and it'll be good to keep Moneymaker out there slugging it out with the lesser makes.

As far as entertainment dollars go, I'd rather spend $10 towards helping to keep those front wheels up rather than spending it on some Hollywood trash that passes for movies these days.
If Alex gives us permission and we have his correct PayPal account, I'm there in a hoofbeat.

Hi all.
I don't know what to say at this time other than I am overwhelmed at the outpouring of support from my friends, the members of M&M.
Thank you all

I'm sending my money to Alex himself, so PayPal doesn't get a chunk of it. I'd rather 100% of my money go to Moneymaker.
