Have you guys ever heard about this contest they are holding and if it is for real that they give out sponsorships? They called me up and asked if I wanted a sponsorship but they needed a $79 setup fee. I am kind of hesitant about doing this.

I know the guys at Racer X and from what I know the contest is legit. The setup fee is only if you are selected. If anyone has any other questions I will ask first hand.

As far as I know you only pay the 80 dollars or whatever if you are chosen for sponsorship. I was told selection will not be easy. And they need a credit card to verify age. I'll holler at them on monday if I have a chance and see what they have to say.

Hey Malachi. did you accept the sponsorship? If you did, have you gotten your papers from them yet?

I got a call from them Wednesday in the middle of class and they selected me for a 10G sponsorship and a scouting job and I should be getting my papers from them within about 2 weeks. As far as legitness they do have Motorex as one of their sponsors and everyone knows them. . . .

Have they selected the the winner of the Skyline yet?

It's legit, I'm there every day. I buy all of my parts from them.

Im not questioning the legitness . . . Im just saying thats my reason for actually trusting them. . . .

They are actually my first sponsor and Im excited about the whole thing . . . it was one of those things I just did out of nowhere without thinking I would actually get selected. Im glad I did though. Does anyone know how the whole thing works with them?

Actually, I did get my papers and found out that it is a co-op sponsorship. They will only pay for a percentage of parts up to $10,000. Needless to say I was very pissed off.

Post by **nightshift** » Sat Mar 08, 2003 9:47 am

well whats the percentage ???

I mean something is better then nothing . . . I think I heard them mention up to 52% over the phone but they called me during class so I really wasnt paying as much attention as I should have since I had a lecture for a test I had to get back to. . but **** a lil over half off of everything is a big help compared to nothing when your talkin about doing some serious ish to you car. It does put some limitations on it but still a big help.

Just think 1/2 of my SR swap :pface . . . . . . .

They are actually a wholesaler. They sell parts to other shops and the like. You'll get close to wholesale. They do take care of you as a customer. I've actually shopped around and they've beat prices. If you have questions e-mail them or call. Or I guess you can ask me and I'll try to find out for you. And they only charge you if your selected for the 10,000 slot. If you get 7500 etc. they dont charge. Also there are a number of people who arent selected. I've seen some of the entrys.
