    Out cleaning the pig sty I call the garage and was noticing that I have a lot of JEGS & SUMMIT stickers laying around. Got me to thinking about as a kid if I went to any car show parts house or tire store with Dad or my older brothers I would come home with all sorts of stuff! Key chains, coasters, pens,pencils,but my most prized possession would be the stickers! I would paste those ****ers all over the place my bike the the garage door basketball backboard anything I could reach! Except any ones car! My old man didn't want anything stuck on his ride! Must be where I get that from! Anyway just wondering if the JEGS & SUMMIT stickers are the STP stickers of the new generation? Seems how most manufactures don't give away much of anything any longer.

    Every time I place an order with Summit or Speedway I get more decals in the box. Too bad they aren't the small, cool ones like STP and others had in the old days or I wouldn't toss them in the trash.

    Same with catalogs. Every week I have another Summit or Speedway catalog in my mailbox. They must have a hell of a printing press because they keep cranking these things out by the thousands. :eek: I feel bad tossing them out, but how many can a guy use ???

    Every Summit sticker I get has various sizes on the sheet. They are as small as an inch long to very large. I don't put them on either way. They get enough of my money that they should pay me to put their stickers on! ;)

    I wish more companys would throw in a small decal like they did in the 60s and 70s my favorite performace decals were the "Equipped" ones.

    Haha, those Jegs ball caps sure are a bright yellow. We just went to the drags last Sunday and I could spot my Son clear across the lot because he had one of those yellow beanies on. It is impossible to get lost if you are wearing one of those. :D

    Dang I feel ripped off now. Recently spent close to a grand at Summit for some American Racing wheels and didn't get a Summit sticker or an American Racing sticker. But I do have a bunch of old STP stickers =)
