CarSponsors.com?

Does anyone have any input on this company? I saw their ad on Speed, went to the website, filled out the application then bailed when I saw that they wanted close to $100 to get me sponsored.

Now don't get me wrong, if they are a good company who can get me sponsored with some good parts, I don't mind paying it and taking my car to shows, wearing t-shirts and passing out business cards, yada yada yada... I just don't want to shovel out $100 and them say "Here are some lug nuts" and a hideous bumper sticker advertising "Joe's Nuts"... :3d_frown:

It's 100% legit.

However, in the long run, they'll end up making more money off of you than you will save.
I shamefully tried this years ago...
I can't say they didn't offer decent deals on discounted product,
But a majority of what was available wasn't even compatible with my car!

ie. Offered Fidanza flywheels at half price.......for my built Automatic Supra. :nono:

I suppose if you're into the whole car show scene and want anything and everything,
Go for it...But I'd never do it again. Then again, I was 17 at the time,
And was open for trying anything. :aigo:

HTH,
Jeff

Jeff's evaluation is pretty much dead on.

ya, to get a useful sponsor you're cars gotta be fast already...
no one is gonna give just anyone discounted parts, only the fast and well known cars get the good sponsors.

+1 No one is going to hand you parts if they have no clue how you are going to represent them.

Did the same thing when I was 17 too LOL. Like Jeff said it is legit, just not worth it.

That's about what I was expecting to hear. Mom always told me "If it sounds too good to be true...."

Thanks for the input guys.
