Im putting together a packet of information to send out to various companies to let them know about me and possibly work out a deal on parts. Ive got background information on my site (how many hits members etc). I also put the future plans on there with regards to my car and Super Street mag.

What stuff has worked for people on here or know that works?

Saw some stuff online about it...like TotalEclipse said U have to spend the $$$ first sponsership comes AFTER youve gotten a bunch of awards appeared in several magazines etc...its by no means the easy way out of paying for parts on your car...good luck tho.

I know you have to spend money before youll even have a chance at sponsorhip. I did however get the word that Phantom grip and Clutchmasters will be hooking it up Im working on some boost now and hopefully some tires.

Lets take time for a word from my sponsors.....

well i joined a car club then we got sponsored by a shop last week. we only get %15 discounts though. but with how expensive a lot of things get the savings really ad up. say you bought some cam shafts. about $525 after tax. then the discount.it will total out to about $446. thats a lot saved. well at least for me
