So I entered my info on http://carsponsorships.com/ and John just gave me a call asking if I was still interested. Idk if this is some sort of scam, but it does say that they don't charge you until you get sponsored so idk? All I have to do is hand out shirts/fliers at some car shows and then pay $89 and get sponsored for a year. What are everyone's opinions on this? He was a pretty nice guy and told me to give him a call back when I decide, but just want to make sure I won't get shafted lol

 

your getting shafted.

i mean, seriously.... no offense, but who gets sponsored with your mods??

no one.

 

and if you do get sponsored by someone, its probably BIC lighters or soemthing..

maybe pens.

 

no they give you mods/discounts lol to show their stuff

 

^nah dude, they'll give you the wackest sponsers, did this shiit like 5 years ago, thought "OH **** sponsership for $89, sweet" its a rip off and a scam.

 

but i say just for chits and giggle call him back and ask him waht sponsership you'll be getting?

 

I'm sponsored by:

Meguiar's
Dunlop
Valvoline
Kicker
Autometer
GS Motorsports
Will's Discount Tire
Zeetoyz
NOS Energy Drink
Top Speed Auto

Carsponsorships.com has a contract you have to sign if I'm not mistaken, which you should fully read over and understand. There will be quite a few requirements on your part before you can see benefits. If I'm not mistaken it's typically a discount on parts. Landing full sponsorships isn't as easy as paying a fee. If you're serious about showing your car and landing full sponsorships, you'll need a good track record.

 

I think you should sponsor yourself like that guy in the old bmx movie, remember, he did the backflip on the bike








I'm sponsored by my bank account.

 

where did you get signed up with all urs waijai

 

waijai hook it up with some tires.

 

There's no where to sign up for it. You have to make contact with the companies through networking. SEMA is a good spot to meet and discuss.

 

that company is a scam.

Get some real sponsors.

Im sponsored by 4 companies for My maxima. It ios not an easy task, and is a lot of hard work.

 

yeah im just not going to be doing that :P thanks for the tips guys.. i don't really think I'd have enough time to make it work anyways

 

like waijai said you dont sign up places and they say hey cool a g35 with exhaust, let sponsor him!
gotta talk to reps from companies (eg: sema, ces, etc...)

but that website is a scam

 

It is very hard to make it work it is all about networking and who you know, and what you can do for them.
