I signed up for it and they sent me papers back but it seemed kinda scandal i never signed the contract. There are many rules, you must attend at least 4 shows, you need to always and show proof of your sport compact sticker and any other sponsors what it really is, is like discounts on new parts and you have to buy them from them unless they dont have it there are many rules, but i dont know what happens if you sign the contract.

My only thing in their defense is that its just an application, your not for sure to get selected.

i signed up for that too. n i got a call from a guy about it saying i got the sponsorship.

like michalo said. theres a bunch of rules n **** for it. and it only lasts a year. the major thing is, before u get sponsered by them, u gotah pay $70 bucks for the initiation of it. if ur not gona buy parts from them within a year for the discount........ its worthless cuz then u just lose ur money

hm.. basically they have a list of companies that they have affiliations with. and if u want somethin, then u tell them what it is n what company its from. from there, someone (no idea who) from the company will look at ur request and evaluate it. depending on their decision u can get a discount from anywhere between 10 - 40 % i think?

i cant remember the exact percentage number. but its something like that.




FYI - i didnt go with the sponsorship becuz im broke n wasnt gona get nething within the year. so i havent done it. but from talking on the fone with them for some time. that is what was explained to me.

just give them a call, or they should have called u alrdy if u applied. and if u didnt apply, not everyone will qualify and get their sponsorships. i dont know how they pick you. before u sign up, they give u a call n answer any questions u have on the fone. simple as that

They called and I talked to them tonight but I was just wondering if it was even worth that 70 bucks (tax refundable) that they make you pay for the paper work? I really wanna do it cuz I would love cheaper stuff. Any body know of anyone who used these guys cuz it seems legit to me. thanks asahi
