I have that setup too. ^^^^


Yes they do a good job with the conversions. Talk to Jeff@theQuadshop for it he can do it for you.

I know im gonna sound like a wannabe when I say this but How did you get them to sponser you? I don't race yet but im going to in a month or so and Elkas are something I really really need. If you could tell me I would really appreciate it. :o

first of all you don't sound like a wannabe, and secondly, a lot of people wonder. Just make up a nice resume, and have a bunch of people you know, look it over to see as what they think or what should be changed, type it up, and send it out. Not just elka, but anywhere really, but don't expect to get all the ones you want, or all of them that you send to. Say you send out like 100 of them, you might only get like 5 responces.

Exactly what he said^^^
Thats how I got all of my sponsers.
I have to keep updating my sig cause I get more and more responses every week.
