Hahaha, just saw that too
OFFROADING MAGAZINE - Roothy and the crew at 4WD Action have posted a video stating Tigerz 11 have been banned from the upcoming Melbourne 4x4 Show.
"Roothy, you are an icon of 4WDing in Australia with many people looking up to you and supporting your great causes. You have and are doing a lot of great work for the offroading cause. However, you have really stuffed up this time because you DO know that the content of the video is factually incorrect. It is un-Australian to misconstrue the facts for your own advantage and to the disadvantage of exhibitors who actually booked a space at the show. Restore you honour and great image and retract your misconstrued video."
Offroading Online Magazine has an affiliation with the Melbourne 4x4 Show in that we are paid by Tony Whateley of the Loveday Extreme Team to take photographs of his event as well as the show in general.
4WDTV - Most reputable 4x4 accessory companies have pulled out of the magazine, if roo and tigerz are not at the 4x4 show it is another positive step forward for an industry that is under attack from a greedy and misguided organisation. Roothy's video has been a massive flop...the backlash is widespread and it has highlighted some of the hidden truths about their actions. It is un Australian to import cheap, inferior and dangerous Chinese copies. It is also un Australian to label reputable Australian companies who spend millions locally on R&D, design, testing, manufacturing and employ thousands of Australians as un Australian...wake up people! Who has the industry turned against? Who is flooding the market with inferior and cheap copy product? Who has a financially vested interest in 2 of their advertisers? Who is swapping ad space for profit without paying the appropriate tax and GST? Which advertising platform is now a retailer...a conflict of interest? Unethical, unfair, unreasonable, illegal...and un Australian!
...but it gets better after that.....lol
