RIP OFF
There is only one real sponsorship and that is when you get stuff for free.. there are very few of us that get that and thank goodness i am one of them.

Rep Power: 287 sounds like thier way of buying things for wholesale, and selling them to unsuspecting people for slightly above wholesale...
Not an entirely bad deal for either party...
But in no way a "sponsor"

Rep Power: 0 the guy from racerX lives in my development... no one respectable in the import scene around here likes that guy.. LIke people who own other shops and mechanics.. you have to PAY to get sponsored.. He always drives around in his WIFES evolution with racerX stickers all over his car. I think he used to own a shop or something and it went out of business, that guy is wack. I think u pay him like 70 bux to "maybe" get sponsored. Then if you DO get sponsored, he gets you stuff at the same prices as if u looked throughly on the internet. It's really stupid. Sponsorships are stupid, unless u get free stuff or at cost (manufacters price).

Rep Power: 314 OK OK OK OK.....
heres an update... YES it did cost me $79 for the contract fees and yeah sponsorships should be free but the money for the contract fee is tax deductable AND goes to a charity.. as for the whole sponsorship deal.. i get wholesale parts from a TON of companys that have stuff for my civic.. also i get deals on labor for installs (which i wont use since i do it all myself), anyway.. i get $12,000 to use for parts.. i buy the item at wholesale price and SCP (sport compact pro) pays the difference... you guys know of the vis trunk for the 4dr right.. yeah i get it for the same price as dealers do AND i get it shipped to my door AND i can wait and save up enough money to get it whenever i want, that means i dont have to fight to get in on the groupbuy or fight to get the last one that a dealer has forsale.. also all i have to do is go to 4 (yeah only four) car shows with my car entered in 'em.. i put there sticker on my car.. (only for the show if i want..) just have to make it easy to see.. THEN ITS GAME ON FOR PARTS... seeing as how i have only been in the USA for 3 months.. (i'm an in the miltary so i have been in korea for a year..) and i have been to 3 shows i dont see a problem with making in a year with my car entered in it... SO WHAT DO YOU THINK....................... yeah for me or what??????????/

Rep Power: 0 Hey, paying $79 for a wholesale opportunity is pretty good in my opinion. If you were going to car shows anyway, what's the big deal sporting their sticker. I paid $45 for my Costco Membership and no one is saying that is a rip off. Best of luck to you and I hope you get the "full sponsership". (wow did that sound like an MLM pyramid just there....hmmmm)

I know a lot of people who got their srt-4's sponsored but that is a very very popular car right now that draws a lot of attention...but the way they get it done is when they have a SHITLOAD of mods, running minimum 11's...then the sponsors agree to trade a small decal for a specific part (or part value) and they get multiple sponsors for one or two parts each...they get a 50% discount or whatever...

Rep Power: 0 I got my contract in the mail, and I'd like to see a parts list before I send this back in. I'd be all about the up to 55% off on parts deal, but I wanna be sure I can make my car show worthy. I wouldn't want to be "one of those guys" that enters their car in a show with like, a few rinky dink mods. The shows here in Pittsburgh generally have like 40 cars or so in them. If I was one of those 40, I would want to represent.
