SEMA was a month ago. CES is 1/8-11 in Vegas and there are some big auto shows in January: LA, Detroit and maybe Chicago. But if they wait that long a lot of promotional opportunities have been lost.

Well it is easy to get excited about something like this but one lesson to learn is to not leak news of an announcement until the contract is inked or at least a letter of intent is signed.
I was and still am excited to see who the sponsor is - it is better than no series sponsor. Of course, I also want to know how it benefits the competitors and/or events.
