Sponsorship

How easy is it to get sponsored with sport compact?? Is it worth getting sponsored anymore? The same guy I talked about with the Trans Am taking the Evo on the track is now say he is getting sposored by them and getting 75% off all their products just by sending in a picture of his car.

Uh, it is NOT easy to get sponsored. You will never be able to just send in a photo. Usually the following gets sponsored:

1) People who dump crazy amounts of money on their car and do unique stuff.
2) People who dump crazy amounts of money on their car and go to tons of shows
3) People who race at a national level and place high

No one gives a **** about your stock Evo.

See thats what I thought, retarded. I know no one gives a **** about my stock car thanks for that input. Just getting peoples opinions.

I'm doing most the work myself I don't car about sponsorship cause I don't want to deal with someone else telling how my car is going to look. I bought this car for my own reasons and imagination not someone elses.

i got small sponsorships on my Z really easily. I just called a couple companies(one that made an intercooler chill kit, and hose techniques was the other). Hose techniques sent me a FREE kit after me sending some pics of my car, and telling them how i was big into the Z forums and could help sell their product. Free 150 dollar hose kit, and 75% off the retail of the intercooler kit.

No big name company is gonna put up any kind of money or parts that matter though....the EVO/DSM tuning community is too big

Go for it! I'm sponsored by 5 different companies, but I'm just waiting on them to send me free stuff. I already paid $79 to each of them. I heard that was a great price for getting lots of free stuff from c00l sponsors! You should see how cool my Evo is with all their stickers...
