So I found the web site a couple months ago(http://www.getsponsored.net) and I thought what the hell Ill try it and see what happens. So I get this call the other day but I didnt answer it but the guy was like call me back about getting sponsored. So I did and he said i would get 20-50% off parts and labor and stuff. All I have to do is pay a $88 fee and go to 4 evens next year. My question is, is this a scam or do you think it could be ligit? I still need to call him back for payment and get some more info but i wanted to talk to some people first. Let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Mike

Yeah, they do a shitty job, my friend got sponsored, he wanted them to find him a motor swap and they never did (mr2). They're "great" savings and shit were more expensive then most places. Is a waste.
