well i got sponsored by carsponsorships.com, its cool but at the time its dissapointing, charges you 90 bucks for supposedly lots of companies, just 15 though, the only good deal i found was the wheels, but not pretty sure if they are a scam also.
I would recomend you if you want to be sponsored fast,

need more info?

if you wanna good sponsorship, make up a buisness proposal. Bring it to a few places, performance shops, body shops, etc and have it explaining what you are intending to use this sponsorship for. My friend has gotten sponsored for his AE86 for drifting for raceworld.ca. In his contract, it states that he will attend at least 6 car shows in our province, 2 out of province and 3 in the US. Also it says that he has to attend 7 drift days and races. Also, he has to only have products in his car by the sponsering companies, IE, only momo, no sparco, only hankook tires, no falken..etc. If he breatches the contract, its voided and they take away EVERY thing he has gotten. Even if he has put some of his own $ into it, they still take it. Becareful about being sponsored. If you can, get sponsored by a company you deal with regularly or by some one you know. Like right now, if i were to look for a sponsor, i would only be sponsored by 3 companies. 1. the one i work for to get parts, 2. my friends garage to get them installed, and 3. my friends body shop to get the car modified exterior wise. Pretty much, if you get a sponsorship, make sure you are going to be able to help these companies. Handing out flyers, going to car shows, going to track days, etc. Get your self out there, get the companies out there, and becareful about what you sign/agree to.

valo pretty much said it.....you want to sell yourself and your car to the companies and explain to them why you think you and youre car are a good investment to them. It is also better to have a show or race record with all your coverage and accomplishments listed (trophies and such). Most companies want to see that they are going to be sponsoring a car that has done well and believe will do better with time. If you have any coverageof your car from past shows/ races give this to the companies they will see it as a benefit.

From there all I can say is goood luck and don't get discurranged if you do not recieve an sponsorship within the first year to try to recieve one.

"If at first you don't succeed try, try again."
