Not a problem at all.

In reality there really is no one right way or wrong way to go about this as the formula will change for each sponsor you are seeking. for some sponsors you will want to be more detailed in certain areas than others.

The basic premise of the entire resume is that you will represent them in the most positive way you can and that you have something that they are looking for. If they see that then they will most likely be interested...then they will watch you for a bit...then they will contact you or however it goes from there. Some companies are harder than others.

As for magazines sponsoring cars...well thats not really a very likely item there since they usually build their own cars in conjunction with parts manufacturers for coverage and how to articles. I have yet to honestly see a single car truly sponsored by a magazine since for the most part a magazine is supposed to take a fairly neutral view of their sport...adding a sponsored car would create an imbalance and possibly cause their personal involvement to influence magazine quality and coverage
