We run an independent enthusiasts' site with no manufacturer's affiliation, with proper attribution of copyright and trademark across the board.

I need to clear something up. Ron may not know all the facts, so I need to make sure everyone knows the deal.
1.) FFCobra.com is an independent site with no affiliation to any manufacturer, including FFR. They did not start the site, I did. They have NO SAY over what gets said or done on my site.
FFR has been paying ClubCobra.com for ads longer than they have paid me. They only started paying for an ad in 2005 and stopped in 2008.
2.) Ron says that ClubCobra.com uses "proper attribution of copyright and trademark across the board" but forgot to say that so does FFCobra.com. ClubCobra.com adopted my copyright and trademark notice at the bottom of every page. We use the same "notice".
If you use the Wayback web site you can see both sites in July 2002. My site has the same notice at the bottom of the page as I do today. Notice that ClubCobra.com did not not use this "notice" before FFCobra.com. Someone from ClubCobra.com copied my trademark notice at a later time.
