Well, I will put it to you the way my sponsors put it to me.....

Do you Travel?
Do you race National level events, IE Nationals, Regionals, Snowbirds, Cleveland, or Any of the "BIG" off-road races (if that is what you are looking for)?
Can you help get "our" products into and thru your local hobby shop?
Do you have enough knowledge of "our" products to help others?
Are you well liked by other racers and Hobby shop owners?

These are just a few of the "simple" questions you need to answer for yourself FIRST!

I have been told for the last almost 15yrs of racing "If you have to ask, 'Can I get sponsored' you are prob. not ready" So far that has been true!


So take this post for what it is....

I can live with that. my big problem is money. I just never had the money to go to big races. I spend it all on my cars. I work in a hobby store right now. No one I know of has a proble with me, I'd like to know if they do. I'll just get the money up to go to a big race. SOMEDAY

Start small maybe a ROAR state race then a Regional or Super regionals are perfect, cause they kindda are a who's who of more than one region.

Also, don't Start with the "BIG" name motor and Battery companies....

With chassis there really aren't any "smaller" companies so you have to go for the gold on that.

I will PM you something to consider....
