Well, I'd like to hit the show circuit but I need a couple of things first: : 1) A new paint job. : 2) New seats. : 3) New steering wheel. : 4) Under car neon. : Plus, I want to win the SCC Ultimate Street Car Challenge for which I'll need: : 1) New engine (700HP min.) : 2) New suspension. : 3) AP Racing 6 piston brakes. : 4) Stand alone fuel, ignition, boost computer. : 5) ESS Racing SAW Tiptronic transmission conversion. : 6) About a million other small mods (See SCC Project Z). : Unfortunately, I don't have the funds to make all of this happen right now, hence the sponsorship request in my subject line. Does anybody have any experience with getting sponsorship? Who should I talk to? What can I expect from them? What do they ask for in return? Any help would be appreciated. : So, I hope you all enjoy checking out my Z. I'll be happy to answer any questions about how it was done. Thanks. : -Dave My CarPuter Headquarters [ ashleypowers.com ] [ agpowers@bellsouth.net ]
