If you have a company in mind I would suggest contacting them and asking them if they are interested in sponsoring someone for whatever you have in mind and then asking them what they would like you to do for them

I had some friends get coca cola to sponser them to go on a cross country road trip in an old *** winibago just for painting both side of it with big coca cola logos


call who ever you want to do the sponsering and ask if there is anything that you can do for them. Don't expect to get paid though they will usually give you free stuff for you and stuff that you can hand out to people I've never heard of anyone getting paid though

How is this in the wrong section? The lounge is for this random stuff.

As for the sponsorship, I'm not entirely certain how to obtain sponsorship for car shows. I might be able to give you some pointers, still though. I used to work for a late model team at the local racetrack where sponsorship is key. So if you think you could use that advice, hit me up with a pm.

There is a website called carsponsorship.com (or something like that) that will find you multiple sponsors. But they charge $90 to do it and I'm too cheap.. I've been talking to some local business but haven't had much success. But I'm not willing to sticker up my stang.

What kinda sponsors are you looking for? Like random *** companies or auto part specific? Show off their products at car shows and whatnot?

Really isn't worht it to be sponsored by major companies IMO. Unless you're a garage queen and only do shows.

Had a buddy sponsored by TrueFiber and some other brands, he basically signed the car over to them. Rules like "you won't race this car, you will attend x amount of events in these areas" ect..

i read somewhere that you will have better luck getting a sponsership from a large corporation like McDonalds or Coca-Cola as opposed to something smaller like an auto parts store or manufacturer.
