IMO, what they offer, you can pretty much get from anyone. I looked at their contract etc...when they first started coming out in the mags. If you buy all your parts from one vendor they will usually hook you up, so why would you need these guys.
If your sponsored for $5K, once they give you $5K in discounts like if you buy an exhaust for $600 and retail was $675 well now you have $4925 left of your sponsorship...LOL so they are really not sponsoring you, you are just buying parts from them at a slightly discounted rate (they still make their money) and you dont get a better deal if any.
Sorry to sound so negative, but in NO way should it be called sponsorship. Once again IMO
