What's the reason? Binned or temporarily deleted pending choosing the winners?

bounce Only about 5 people commented in the thread, does that mean that we all won one?

Lots of people commented, some were derogatory, some indifferent and some wanted the thing. The criteria for the competition weren't exactly conducive to a large entry list but a few of us were interested. It'd be a shame to bin it because of a few smart-arse comments.

Oh, I must have missed this. Was it about Tracker experiences?

My 911 had one fitted when I bought it.

I was most impressed with the Tracker, when the gearbox failed one day. The RAC bloke tipped up and loaded the car onto a transporter, and left to take it for repair.

Because the car was now obviously moving without the ignition being on, within seconds (and I do mean seconds) both my mobile phone and my home phone lit up with phone calls from Tracker. Plus, once I'd spoken to them on the home phone, I saw they had texted me as well.

When I answered the phone, the chap from Tracker sounded genuinely concerned, and he said 'Good Afternoon, it's Tracker here - do you know if your car is secure Sir, because our system has detected what might be an unauthorised movement?'

That's pretty good, isn't it?

I was impressed anyway.

We must have imagined it, some sort of strange group hallucination where random people from around the globe saw a thread about a tracker competition.


If only we could track it down paperbag

I was going to enter, but alas I haven't had a tracker, so couldn't... Which seemed like a flaw. Still, very odd competition.

Having just looked up the cached version on Google I'm not suprised it was binned, it went down like a lead balloon didn't it hehe

Some people did enter though. For Tracker and Pistonheads to pretend it didn't exist just stinks.

You're right, but that's how PH works I'm afraid. Try PMing Garlick.

A good point.

Tracker asked us to remove the thread but we have heard no more. I must get onto that to see what's going on.
