Is this a joke!?!?! Who in the hell would give you a $10,000 sponsorship with a car that has maybe $800 into it.

R3DL1N3 05-21-2003 08:00 PM

whats up with this racer x motorsports shit? ive heard all sorts of shit about them.

Jodster 05-21-2003 08:03 PM

I don't know what the deal is. I mean its hard to get a sponsorship with a civic unless you have alot of work done. I mean alot.

joski 05-21-2003 08:30 PM

Yea thats pretty unbelievable! Congrats if it really works out bro, but do what the others say.. Wait till you have it in writing before you buy anything!

david02civic 05-21-2003 08:43 PM

I will guarantee you its Racer X motorsports. They are a scam man, They called me and they wanted 79 bucks upfront for them to just send me a T-Shirt and decals. I told them no. They called back 2 days later prectically begging me to accept it. Im serious.They said you get 52% off products up to 10 grand, they dont just give you 10 grand, i Wish it was that easy. I hate to burst you bubble but noone is going to give you 10 g's. Lok on thier website, there are absolutely no products on the site, Thier whole site is about sponsorship.They called me 4 times asking and trying to make a deal by only sending them like 50 now and then the other 29 when i receive the package. I say SCAM.

david02civic 05-21-2003 09:40 PM

Jodster 05-21-2003 09:49 PM

Did the phone conversation go something like this?

Racer X Motorsport: Racer X Motorsports
JDM EM2: Yeah, I'm intrested in a sponsorship.
Racer X Motorsport: Ok, how about we give you $10,000. That sound fair?
JDM EM2: I'll get $10,000!?!?!
Racer X Motorsport: Sure kid. Your checks in the mail.

Bartkat 05-21-2003 10:05 PM

If someone is sponsoring, they're going to want you to use their stuff. They certainly aren't gong to give you money to put what you want on your car.

david02civic 05-21-2003 10:15 PM

LOL, yea you got me.Good one.

JDM EM2 05-21-2003 10:17 PM

david02civic 05-21-2003 10:22 PM

Its hard to find a money sponsor. Just Hand write some letters and send them to different companies. Youll be suprised the difference hand written letters make compared to emails. It shows the company you really want it.

rowdyb7 05-21-2003 10:32 PM

lol yea Racer X is a scam... i know about 5 basically stock Civics receiving this "$10000 sponsorship"
If its too good to be true then it probably is.

I know lots of people that have put $20gs to $60gs that would still be unable to get a monetary sponsorship for their cars. This topic has come up several times. I hope no one has lost too much money to them! you got to remember that sponsorships are based on return on investment. If a company gives you $1000 of goods they will expect over $1000 worth of advertising through shows and other events with coverage or large crowds. Your basically stock car is not going to provide a company with $10000 in advertising. You know that right?! Start with smaller type sponsorships. Its a building exercise, no one just jumps to the top without modding their car first and having a history of successes.

JDM EM2 05-21-2003 10:38 PM

Thanks davido2civic 4 the info
also thanks to all that reply.

BlueBoyCivic 05-22-2003 08:29 AM

Ok...this may sound lika dumb ass question to some, but oh well I'm new to this shiet.

What does having a sponsership actually give to you? I mean I know they hook you up w/$$ and shiet like that. But what for? I mean they just don't say here, take this money and fix your ride up and advertise our name at the same time!!

If someone can explain, I would really appreciate it. Maybe I'd want a sponser for my broke ass LOL

reytito 05-22-2003 09:22 AM

prolly require you to do alot of publicity. meaning alot of shows, alot of photos for ads, alot of conferences. basically...they give you money for their parts and you're their little b!tch to show off. its kinda worth it...

incubus7d 05-22-2003 11:17 AM

The racer x place called me yesterday for a sponsership is it beat or is it ok i dunno what to do??? ideas???
