[QUOTE]Originally posted by Duncan Motors: [QB] the thing with sponsoring people. is that someone will be putting alot of time and materials in someones car. whats that person doing with that car? is that person gona make it worth while? is it something there serious about doing? are they gona quit the next day. most people that ive seen that are looking for a sponsor have a whole portfolio filled with pics, or history of there past races showing that there serious, and there continuous time slips of being at the track faithfully. is a big risk to sponsor someones car that just sits in the garage lol,<no offense>! and might never get it out, or doesn't really hit all the events or is even 75 percent serious. and if u don't have any proof or history of continuously hitting the road race or drag race scene. how can the sponsoring guy know the difference? when i sponsored and did itsstock motor he had a portfolio , he was the most heard about kid out this way always racing anybody and everything win or lose, and he mostly won. he was serious as they get to a point. i did a motor for him, i never got no stickers on the car,u tube videos of a 9 second car with no body knowing who built the motor, he went on his way like thanks but now i gotta go attitude. never got a public thank u till way after a couple arguments. shoot till after he already sold the car was anything said. if he would have kept the car and did what was expected i could of got iron fifty to sponsor his roll cage as well. and then that would of been some proof this guy iron 50 can follow a simple rule book and got a certified done cage under his belt. but its stock did not follow thru. i dont mean to bash on its stock, me and him have talked and he was just caught in the moment of being young, a new born baby, and wanting to get his car done and driving and probably forgot to eat he was so excited, this guy blood is sponsored by redline oil! and we have made up sense then, i hold no hard feelings towards him, but i will never get my 100 hours of work and time on that motor back. 100 hours lost. and thats something any sponsor has to think about before going thru what i went thru. i also spent 20 hours on jae jae heads porting the crap out of them for free, his car runs hard hands downs!!! id like to see any similar car run against his, aluminum headed or not! i would of paid any entrance fees to any drift event just so he could get some seat time cause he is really very very talented, and great kid. but he cant muster the what ever to go. so if u want to get a sponsor grab a portfolio and dig out some pics, get the car together as gd as u can and hit the track.if your any gd or being consistent or maybe going to enter the car in some big magazine, an just being a decent guy, with a lot of history already. u could get one in no time.
