I was browsing cardomain.com the other day, and saw an ad for "carsponsorships.com" so I clicked on it. Decided to fill out the application just to see what came back. So far I have gotten three "offers" one from "national automotive company" for "$7,000" to go to the HIN competetions. One from Blaupunkt USA that is "Open" and another from "Decalkits.com" for $650. Can anyone offer any advice or information on this? I am kind of skeptical but I don't really know what to think about it. I don't want to sign up for something that is a bad deal and end up making my car something I really don't want it to be. Thanks, any information is helpful.

 

From everything I've heard, don't do it.

 

Big BIG scheme..... I hope you did not pay any money to them yet.... You should find the "how to get sponsored" thread.. funny stuff there... aww well.. I'll give you the best part


A little PhotoChop I did.. this Kid Outburzt was getting roudy...

 

It's a scam for your 75 dollars and then they try to sell you crap at regular price. I would stay clear from this scam.....

 

thanks all... thats sorta what i figured, but there was no way for me to know for sure

oh and no i havent paid anything to them yet, didn't want to if it wasn't legit ya know?

 

Good man mrpratt.

 

Kid? Unless your 70 you cant call me a kid bro. You have no idea what your talking about. I am not one of those "kids" that payed 90 bucks and nothing in return. Heck, I didnt even pay 90 bucks. Thanx for the help though cuz with all this crap your talking people keep pm'n me. I guess your my sponsor.
Thanx for helping out.

 

Mike that is funny as hell.

As far as car sponsorships, just create a resume/proposal for your car.. . Find a POC at the company you are interested in e-mail him the resume with pics. Then call to confirm he recieved and go over your resume on the phone with him. Include any magazine shoots you have lined up and all the shows you plan to attend this season. You have to convince them that they will get plenty of Media coverage for them to make it worth their while.

 

lets make this thread sticky so all newcomers can find it.

 

your whole attitude on this board is **** poor. that's why everyone is calling you kid. how that g-hey kit and electric supercharger coming along. you in the 10's yet. such a troll.

 

troll troll troll your boat...

 

Clicky

Using the Search feature I found this useful info, j/k just giving ****

Hear is what happened to me last year

 

damn... theres already at least two other forums on here about this scam... sounds like its all the same... hasn't changed a bit in the past year, except for the fact that they dont take your money until after you accept the "sponsorship"... i know i didn't get charged just for applying because i do online banking with boa and i can check balances and its basically up to the minute on charges (you know the guys in the coffee shop and he buys a coffee and his friend sees it on the comp... yeah that kind of thing) and nothing ever showed up from them so hopefully I am safe... uneasy though

 

here's the face of someone that will try to scam you for the sponsor program as he just got a 12k deal. yeah right

You just use THREAD LOCK.

OUTBURZT has gotten enough attention in about 5 other similar threads, and this thread was a question asked and answered, so to prevent any additional visitation (which is generally unproductive except for our very own Big MD's awesome photoshopping), I'm shutting this one down.

Carry on. There's nothing to see here.
