Nope you are not the only one. I noticed that right off, thinking it was
really dumb to talk up Toyo tires and showing only cars crashing, some
of them quite spectacularly too.

Y'know, this reminds me.  I saw an ad on the Speed Channel covering
SCCA's
World Challenge racing and it was IMO rather poorly edited.

Just after mentioning the title sponsor's name (Toyo Tires) they showed
a
bunch of multi-car crashes.  All of the footage up until the sponsor's
name
was mentioned was of "clean" racing.  But as soon as they mentioned Toyo
Tires all that was shown was out of control cars crashing into each
other.

Kinda made me really not want to rush out and buy Toyo brand tires,
ever.

Or is it just me that notices little details like this?
