Rep Power: 0 Just got sponsored
Some exciting news that I would share with you all.. Sport Compact Pro has decided to sponsor my car! They pay 55% of parts from a whole line up of manufacturers and they also pay 55% of labor costs. Pretty much the only thing I have to do is keep their decal on my car and attend four events a year.. Events being racing events at the track, sound competitions, car shows, etc.
I was so suprised when I found out just because I hardly have anything done to my car.. I'll let you all know how things turn out over the next year

Rep Power: 0 You don't get 55% off. If you read the contract it says up to 55%. I called SCP to order some stuff thinking I was going to get the 55% off of parts. The guy I was talking to told me most of the time it's around 15%-20% and the only time you get the 55% is if you have the money to buy something big. It' all a bunch of

Rep Power: 0 I had to pay $80.. but I got my contract maybe a week after I talked to the guy. I think I'm just going to try it since I already did give them the money.. and if it doesn't work out, then I'll just be where I'm at now.. otherwise if it does work out, then it'll be all good.. I had my lawyer take a look at the contract and she said that it sounded like a good deal? Ehh oh well.. although I am having second thoughts now that you guys are sayin all this.. Hmmm

Rep Power: 410 They don't really save you any money though. If you search the internet, you can find the exact same parts for equal or lower prices than SCP/Racer-X is offering.
