in ur first post. u said u can get a fully built motor. so if we get full sponsorship we just get 20% off of every product we buy? thats not a sponsorship. a full sponsorship is u get things for free and u advertise that company on ur car. i think this is a rip off. sending 30 bucks just to get 20% off of everything for a "full sponsorship". im not tryin to be an *** but this idea is stupid.

Ok for real this is a joke. So what you can spent $30 to get the automatic 5%, which means you are trying to get everything for free? Come on man, if you are really down and a real racer you plan on buying parts which in turn would come back to mean you would be getting them cheaper. If you car is good enough then that measly $30 will turn into thousands saved. IT IS A SPONSORSHIP WHICH BY DEFINITION IS A LEGAL AIDING OF ANOTHER PARTICIPANT. So that $30 would come back to you 100 fold. Let me change the name of the post to Dh-Racing Helper Program, so you don't pull technicalities out on me. We have done more for 7th gen's then any other company in the world the way I see it. You request something, we make it, we have followed through with everything we said. Ended up selling pulleys for just over $100, and when people paid too much I offered to take it off their next purchase. Call it what you want. DH-RACING IS FAIR, and I do whatever it takes to make the customer happy. It's always generous actions that get taken forgranted. I Don't get it. So pesimistic when you can't see the good we are trying to do. Sorry for my words I am upset by this, I don't know what we have to do for you to see it's not a scam, it's us trying to help.

I don't think my car it worth going to shows or such, but I would love to sponsor DHR. I'm trying to use my car as a business card to finally start a business or at least get som more work when I leave the military soon. 6 years is good enough- hopefully I can get a decent job if not then I do know some places to go that I could get a bit of exposure and business your way, Josh. Especially what you all do here and we realize the quality and such, I can promote that. Lots of eager people here-

Call me on the technicality then man. If you don't want to participate then why are you going to go on and on about trying to downtalk what someone is doing for people. That's where your wrong, if you don't agree with something and you are the only one on here making a big deal about it and not happy with how it's going then you don't come on here making a big stink. You are trying to bring down our effort in hopes of getting people to agree with you. AGAIN I WILL SAY THIS MAN ONE LAST TIME. IF YOU THINK $30 IS TOO MUCH TO ASK AND ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS BUY SOMETHING TO GET THAT BACK THEN OH WELL WHAT CAN I DO. You just want me to hand you something because you don't see yourself ever earning enough for a built motor. That's the way I say it. You don't want to get free money that's on you, everyone else sees how easy it is.

These guys are the best. They'll do whatever it takes to help out the customers. Anyone who says or thinks differently is a selfish idiot. The DH staff is probably one of the most helpful, gracious team of people I've ever had the fortune of speaking with.

Be thankful there are companies out there like this.

I have 4 sponsors: DC Sports, Wings West, Clutchmaster, and Nitrous Express. NEVER once did I get any 'free' parts through these sponsorships. I got a very good discount on everything I bought and I had to be in Clutchmaster booth at NOPI. Anyone who thinks a sponsorship means free parts is an idiot and doesn't know anything about this topic. Have a nice day.

OK....this is how I see it. It's not a "full" sponsorship they are offering, they are simply offering sponsorships at different level. I know DH is trying thier best to get their products to us and offering us new products that others won't even bother TRYING to make. Addition to that, they give us really good/reasonable prices. I've been featured in 5 magazines so far and have no more then 5 sponsors (none of them full sponsors). The thing is not how you view your own car. It's how the company you apply for views the "use" of your car. ha ha.....sad to hear but true. Hopefully you guys see Josh's efforts as an aid as opposed to a scam.

Oh yeah...josh...I'm still waiting on that price list run down for what you offer for my car. Please get that to me at your earliest convience. Thanks

Because we dont have the stickers. I only have so much time. Remember D17's are just one of the 7 Generations of Hondas we carry parts for.

sorry i dont have the patience to read all the replies here, i'm lazy. so if someone could sum this all up for me cuz it sounds like all we need to do is fill out a app., send $30, and all we got to do is rock DH stickers on our car and we get 5% off our purchases at dhracing? and if we bring in customers we get a bigger discount?
i'm might be in on this, if i keep my sf kit i plan to build the internals so i'll take a discount where i can get it.

Well then your friend is different then most of the people that get sponsored. I was sponsored by Xtant and Phoenix Gold for 5 years running, rarely did I get free items from them. I mostly just got a good discount on parts and that was about it.

Sponsorships do not equal free items.
