Need Sponsorship!!
 
Hate to say it but I might have to sell the 'Stang to pay for some unexpected finances and other things. Unless i get some sponsorship I won't be able to keep the car up and running and will be forced to sell it. I really hate to part with my car. If anybody knows places or businesses that would be willing or maybe willing to..please give me their phone number or something. I feel like i'm begging for something from you guys. I don't like it. I just would hate to sell my car because it's a winner. It CAN GO ROUNDS. I just need the proper sponsorship. I'm not looking for a handout just some advice or something. Thanks for listening to my rant :(

Man if I knew of any businesses that would be interested I'd do my best to hook you up but around here all the companies want to sponsor dirt track cars.

That is rough guy, you can't get rid of your stang. That thing is to bad ***. Maybe ask some local performance shops, maybe try going to a gas station and get them to sponsor you. A girl I work with is a member of a Corvette club and they got sponsorship from a gas station so that could be worth a try. Hope ya don't get rid of her.

dude that sucks

there aren't any buisnesses i can think of around here ,...i'd talk to the local shops around your area ....maybe a performance shop around your area might -want- there name on a monster like that car .....or maybe you could e-mail dan mclain he might be able to help (dudes pretty connected with mustang peaple and probly wouldn't mind helping )

another idea might be to go to the local dirt track and talk to some peaple ......dirt track racing is pretty competitve and has lots of sponcership .....might be able to find a buissness that you can talk into getting in on the dragracing crowd .......

your cars pretty fast so there is lots of possibilitys .......peaple like having there name on a fast car

Thanks guys for all the advice. I have a local Ford Dealership that's pretty big that said they would sponsor me but i need at least one more. The only speed shop we got around here is already sponsoring a guys Camaro :rolleyes: So i'm out of luck so far. I'll just see what happens first.

Take it easy,

hey bro, what is 5 buck's going to get me?, ok how about the 00gt, heheh. im serious it's a worthy cause if we did it, then we could put mw member's sponsership on it, worth it to me,cya. marty:p

Eric4Nitrous 07-15-2002 08:30 AM

If you guys really wanted to help that would be great..but i'm not gonna ask you to do it. It would be great sponsorship for the site and get more recognition. But i'll leave that up to you guys and Dan of course..Marty..your a true friend man.

Eric

polara7777 07-15-2002 09:16 AM

I can prolly swing a bit of help! I would hate to see you lose that bad a** stang. Did you ever get any pics of it up anywhere?

Eric4Nitrous 07-15-2002 02:32 PM

Polara..no i haven't really took the time to take some real clear pics of the car. I'll be sure and get some though :)

I'm sure your relationship is stable enough that she wouldn't even think that. If that was really your goal, I doubt you have gone for an employee of Autozone...not much clout there! If there's a chance the store would go for it, I don't see why not.

Also, just bc you can't really afford the extra cash to RUN the car right now, why not just store her for a few months? That's free, and just means delayed gratification. I don't see why you would go to the extreme of selling her...:confused:

polara7777 07-15-2002 02:53 PM

Look forward to seeing it. That sounds like a killer ride. I know I wouldn't want to lose my Dodge for any reason and it's come up a couple times so I kinda know how you feel. Anything I can do to help let me know. If you have a PayPal account I'll send ya a little bit. I'll consider it an investment in a good cause!
