hmm. i dont know for a fact. but i always live by: "if you have to ask if it is a scam, it usually is".
but that isn't always true though, so..... good luck!!!

if its a deal where you have to pay to be sponsored....its a scam, you never have to pay for a real sponsorship, and judging just by the name (site is under construction) its a scam

i hate to be blunt about things and no offense but sometimes you have to, you deserve it then. theres a sticky right in the newbie forum about sponsors and someone even said "if you have to pay to be sponsored, its a scam"
look at the quote from the other site. you have to pay 100 bucks up front. real sponsorships dont make you pay anything up front.
if you still want to go head w/ this so called "sponsorship" then go head but your just setting yourself up

You never had t pay for sponsorship but you usually have to spend x amount and have x amount in the car for sponsors to put there money into you. So realistically you do have to pay for it but in a different way. Tell me one car that was completely stock and wasn't a known person that got sponsors that paid to build there car up. Just tell me one and prove it.

they are on myspace.....and i notice they have friend requests with just about anyone who has pics of their cars on there.
id say its just another one like getsponsored.com, etc.
maybe they just have a different way of getting their money as opposed to $ up front then u just get discounts.

That's generally not how sponsorships work.
I'd love to drive in NASCAR, but I can't just call some companies up and put together a team and have them foot the bill.
There ARE cars out there built from scratch with sponsor's money but they're built by people who have already proven themselves capable.
Why the hell would some company just give money to some jerkoff that says he's going to build a car?
First you prove yourself, then companies get on board to back you. That's how it works.
These companies that charge for "sponsorships" are just banking on the idiots who think sponsorship is the goal and will do whatever it takes to think they've achieved that. Basically, they're running a sort of Sam's Club for auto parts. You pay for the membership, and then get some discounts. Of course, you can get better deals just dealing with companies that are supporting us in the scene, like CarCustoms and Gravana and others.
As mentioned, if you're dumb enough to pay after reading all the warnings, then nobody will feel sorry for you. Sadly for the rest of us though, it's people like you that are keeping these companies running. You probably also buy fake Viagra from spam.
If people didn't fall for them, they wouldn't be in business and we wouldn't have to address these questions again and again.
most of the companies here give better deals than those companies do
Yeah any company that sells parts for Js is on this site.

you know what i mean man
if you have to give money up front, its a scam.....of course you have to mod your car and go to shows and stuff...but i meant if you have to pay an upfront cost its a scam

SPONSOREDWHIPS.COM IS A FRAUD, I ONLY GAVE THEM $49 FOR A DOWN PAYMENT, I WAS GOING TO PAY OFF THE REST AS WE GO, HAMI OR HIS OTHER NAME TOMMY SAID THAT I COULD PAY SMALL PAYMENTS SOMETIME, BUT WE COULD TALK ABOUT THAT LATER ON, HE WAS GOING TO GET MY PORTFOLIO STARTED AND THEN SEND IT OUT. WHILE HE SUPPOSIVELY WAS DOING THIS I TALKED TO MY BROTHER IN LAWS BROTHER, HE TOLD ME HE WAS PART OF SPONSOREDWHIPS, HE GAVE THE FULL AMOUNT AND HAS RECEIVED NOTHING IN RETURN. AFTER A FEW MONTHS HE STARTED TO FEEL IT WAS A FRAUD. HE ASKED FOR HIS MONEY BACK, HE WAS TOLD YES YOU CAN HAVE YOUR MONEY BACK JUST DON'T SLANDER OUR NAME ONLINE, BUT PLEASE CALL BACK TOMORROW AND WE CAN FIX EVERYTHING. HE CALLED BACK FOR A WEEK SENT EMAILS, NOBODY GOT BACK TO HIM. WHEN HE CAME BACK TO CAPE COD FOR HIS BROTHERS WEDDING TO MY SISTER, I HAD TOLD HIM I TOO HAD STARTED BUSINESS WITH A SPONSOR TYPE PLACE, WHEN I SHOWED HIM THE NAME HE SAID IT WAS THE SAME ONE AS HIS. THEN STARTED TELLING ME HE HASN'T RECEIVED HELP. HE GAVE ME THE GO HEAD TO CONTACT TOMMY OR HAMI WHATEVER HIS REAL NAME IS, AND SPEAK FOR BOTH OF US. HE'S KIND OF YOUNG AND I CAN BE A REAL A**HOLE WHEN I HAVE TO BE. WHEN I CONTACTED "TOMMY" HE SAID I COULD NOT RECEIVE A REFUND IT WAS NONREFUNDABLE PAYMENT. HE GAVE ME A NUMBER FOR HIS MANAGER WHEN I TOLD HIM I WAS GOING TO GO OVER HIS HEAD. I'VE CALLED IT FOR TWO WEEKS STRAIGHT, EVERY DAY, NO ANSWER! JUST SOME ANSWERING MACHINE WITH THE MESSAGE THAT COMES WITH THE PHONE. I CALLED TOMMY YESTERDAY AGAIN, HE TRIED TO SHIFT WORDS AROUND AND MAKE EXCUSES FOR HIMSELF AND THE COMPANY, I JUST TOLD HIM I'M GOING TO MY LAWYER.
MY FRIEND CHAD, ALSO TOLD ME THAT HE GOOGLED SPONSOREDWHIPS.COM, TURNS OUT THAT THIS GUY IS GOING TO COURT OVER OTHER STUFF, APPARENTLY HE WORKED ADVERTISING FOR A MAGAZINE, AND TRIED STEALING THERE CONTACTS TO PROMOTE SPONSOREDWHIPS, APPARENTLY SOME OF THE STUFF HE DID WAS ILLEGAL. HIS NAME IS NOT TOMMY OR HAMI, ITS SOMETHING ELSE. NOW GET THIS HE TOLD MY FRIEND HIS NAME WAS HAMI WHEN HE SIGNED HIM, TOLD ME TOMMY, WE FOUND OUT ITS THE SAME PERSON, HE TOLD ME YESTERDAY HE WAS THE ONE WHO SIGNED CHAD.
SINCE I'VE RECEIVED NO HELP FROM THIS COMPANY I'M GOING TO EVERY FORUM WHO DOUBTS THIS GUY AND THIS COMPANY, AND I'M GOING TO SLANDER THE F**KING HELL OUT OF THEY'RE NAME, I ALSO WANT TO SCHOOL NEW COMERS AND ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO ARE WITH THEM AND HAVE DOUBTS THAT THIS COMPANY IS A FRAUD, I'M ALSO REALLY GOING TO TALK TO MY LAWYER TO SEE IF THERES SOMETHING WE CAN DO, THAT WON'T COST ME TO MUCH MONEY TO TRY, TO BRING THIS GUY AND COMPANY DOWN.
I ALSO JUST LEFT AN EMAIL FOR WHDH BOSTONS HANK PHILLIP RYAN FROM CHANNEL 7 NEWS, WHO IS AN INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER, AND I LEFT MY STORY FOR HER TO READ IN HER EMAIL.
I'M FULLY ENCOURAGING ANYONE WITH DOUBTS OR WHO KNOWS THIS COMPANY IS A FRAUD, TO CONTACT HER, THERES STRENGTH IN NUMBERS ! IF WE DON'T GET A REFUND BACK, IT WILL STILL BE AWESOME TO SEE THIS GUY AND COMPANY GO DOWN FOR THERE CRIMES.
THANK YOU ALL FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ THIS.
