I need a little direction. At what point should i feel comfortable trying to get sponsered? Money is money right, and who couldn't usa a little more to mod their quad more.
Here's my deal. I am going to my ony 2nd race on the 19th of this month. It's pretty much a local race (Soiuix Falls, SD), but we had over 50 bikes and nearly 30 quads there last month, not to mention about 15 Jr bikes, so it was kinda big. I am currently in the Air Force and i work a second. Because of the 2nd job, i don't get alot of riding time. So, if i could get a sponser, I could cut a few hours a ride more. Here's the problem. I have issues taking someone else's money. I have ALWAYS worked for what i have. And, for someone to give me money to support my habit just seems wierd. To me sponsers are for those who are running GNCC and big stuff like that.
There is alot of local owned business here, and i think i could get a few of them to sponser me. Am i just talking out of my ***** here? Should i take what i can and run with is and be happy that i can con someone into suporting my playtime?
Since i'm not a national/regional racer, i just don't want to feel like i'm stealing someone's money. Can anyone shed some light here?
