True, I guess I should amend that. When I see someone asking for a sponsorship, I imagine they're looking for someone who will pay their entrance fees and give them free parts. AFAIK, that doesn't really happen in autox. But mom & pop sponsorships are common and are cool, and I have gone around asking for them myself. But that's more about you representing a shop you like, just for fun, than about really getting something out of it.
