Just got sponsored
 
Some exciting news that I would share with you all.. Sport Compact Pro has decided to sponsor my car! :rockon: 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

That place is a rip. They sponsor anyone who applies. Not worth it, I wouldn't even get back to them if I were you.

they won't give you $12,000, per say. They will, however, allow you a $12,000 budget. This doesn't mean that they will be paying the $12,000 for you. They're just telling you how much you can spend.

yep it's all a scam.They sponsor anybody. They make their money by u giving them the $80 for some bull shit.

robo1040 01-04-2005 10:29 PM

they wanted to sponser me too once, i was about to do it until they told me i had to give them like 90 bucks and i might not get it back. i see some beat ride rollin around with the SCP sticker on thier window and i wonder how they got sponsered. but let us know how it turns out

jeffsta17 01-04-2005 10:36 PM

I just got the contract after like 3 weeks of waiting...Still trying to figure out if im gonna sign it. Making sure there is no hidden fact that they get to keep my car or something.

yes! the guy lives in my neighborhood! apparently sport compact pro bought out racerX, but the guy that owned racrx owns the sport compact pro shop!
its such a scam

JDM TypeR 01-05-2005 03:18 PM

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. :tdown: It' all a bunch of :-bs:

darklegacy540 01-05-2005 03:53 PM

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

I wouldnt say their rip offs, There saving me money, money that I can use for other things now.

dirtySAMURAI 01-05-2005 05:32 PM

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.

Caucasian.Asian 01-05-2005 05:49 PM

good luck i hope you don't get scammed
