Castrol Plug sounds dirty.

How will this benefit me if I drive a leased car that doesn't ever require oil changes?

Buy it and use it to kill the weeds in your yard.

Stop this crap! This is how Soulja Boy gets his beats! From the Syntec Power Trax!

Thanks for reminding me to never buy a car off a lease.

Puh-leeze! I have as much sense of rhythm as a drum kit falling down three flights of stairs.
Damn thee, Anglo-Saxon heritage!

But this is fun anyway...

Wow. That is extremely lame.

And, not for nothing, but this beat simulation is full of fail.

They should have spent 10 seconds googling for Power Trax before stealing another company's name for their stupid advertising gimmick... the Power Trax folks are going to be pissed.

Actually he gets them even easier than that:

GarageBand is far superior.

Now that ProTools handles MIDI better, yes. My serious annoyance with Reason is that it doesn't handle time signature changes.

I hope the marketing genius behind this has a FARK account and can explain why they thought this was a good idea.

You won't really benefit. Drive it like you stole it, and throw caution to the wind. Well, until your engine seizes up and you go flying into an embankment, anyways. Seriously, though, use the dealer's service if it's included, or if not, just use the cheap stuff.

/makes a mental note to get some Pennzoil for the BF's Jeep. Crappy marketing deserves punishment, and castrol is not any better than anything else out there.

I messed around with their little mixer dealio for about twenty seconds. It's craptacular.

 
Subpar Mario 2008-06-25 06:35:39 PM  
What a piece of crap. Oh, and to top it off, the company I work for is a music production company that holds the trademarks on Power Trax, Power Mix, pretty much anything having the word Power in it that relates in any way to music. Way to go Castrol!

/Though it does remind me I need to change my oil.

I'm a certified Level 2 Machinery Lubrication Analyst so I'm really disgusted by cutesy, half information, marketing tricks.....

What a stupid way to try and drive traffic to a website. Fire your Agency .... what the hell does mixing a beat have to do with a lubricating oil?

Dumb asses probably paid 50-200k for it ...

I have a good idea ... how about a driving game or something related to your products ....
you FARKING Idiotic 2.0 wannabe's....
Try something less transparent ....

I really don't mind the sponsored links, some are well done and most have something to offer.

What I DO mind are the top banner adds that unfold FOUR AND FIVE DEEP and just sit there. Do the mods ever actually open a regular front page to see that the advertisements are interfering with operation of the website?
