wellmost companies dont accept rsume in mid year usally around the end of the season. if you want a plaace that cant help you out you can go to www.sponsorhouse.com

sponsorhouse is a great place to get started with some new sponsors. I've used it the past 2 years and it has been great. Companies are accepting earlier than you think, I'd say 90% of the sponsors on there now are accepting resumes. Theres almost 100 companies on there for quad racers...

Hey I'd suggest Duncan Racing for a place to start as long as you have like 1 or 2 races under your belt they'll take you and you get discount's on pretty much everything they have it'll help out quite a bit

are you sure that they would give a sponsor to a begginer? they would be the first i would try to go to but, I have one under my belt prob more to come b/c the begginers here pretty much suck(besides me:D ). And also how much does that sponsor house cost?

If you are serious and looking to get some good sponsors, the best time to send resumes is September 1st. Most companies are looking and accepting at that time.

Dont worry, your a tad late, but as long as you put a good resume together, and be professional about it, you will get them.

Check out duncanracing.com and they have a section about support riders on there, they are good for a first sponsor, I had them as my only sponsor when I was a B rider and I got what I needed so it was cool. sponsorhouse costs 50$ a year for a memebership and i think it's worth it because it's a nice way to do things and you always have your resume saved online and I scored some good sponsors through there and it saved me a lot more than the intial 50 bucks so I'd say go for it, but don't expect big discounts from companies right away, you have to do more races and move up in class and be loyal to that company for years then they will hook you up nice, or you might get lucky, I have a couple times with good sponsors like Monster Energy and Motorex so you never know.

Ive allways done really good my first races, maintain good results and try to get peoples attention, then I go around to shops and ask.

I like being sponsored by a shop the most because you have discounts on products and such and repairs. That and supporting a site allways helps them out!

I think it is a reliationship with a company, that you use there product while representing them well, and give them feedback on how there product is working and ways to make it better. In return they help you out in some way.

what you would do to adver tise for them like wearing there casual wear after a race or using their products and putting their stickers on your quad etc.

what bike you ride

your age

where you live

your goals

the class you plan on racing in

where you are going to be racing

how many races you plan on doing
