Posted: 23:17 - 29 Mar 2005 Post subject: How Many Racers |
|
|
How many privateer racers are there on this forum. Iam not interested in trackday dudes or people racing for fully sponsored team.
Just people with local sponsors or financing them selves.
Iam thinking of trying to get some joined sponsorship going but need feedback |

With bemsee in (mostly) sourthern England.
I failed to get any sponsorship for this, my rookie year. However I was hoping for that needle-in-a-haystack chance of a big sponsor, and didn't want to ask for smaller amounts as I didn't know how much I could commit to it this year.
Have got various 'in kind' sponsors for pretty much all my major consumables though |

Thats fine G, basiclly iam not looking for people who have been gifted rides, i.e. rich daddy financing son etc or been asked to ride for big team, just people who have gone out bought a bike maybe got couple of small sponsors and compete at first or second year level.
I want to try and generate money for us, but I need to know how many people race before I let everyone know the plan. |

Is there anywhere in NI that does track days or am I right in thinking there's a place in Fermanagh/Tyrone? Never heard of Nutts Corner or anything doing them. ____________________ Northern Irish? www.nibikers.com |

What club are you racing with?
I was initially supposed to be starting racing last year, but money and life conspired against me, so I've had plenty of time to get used to the idea.
Bit sad that I'm 'missing out' on some of the 'newbie' excitement . |

I have done work for 3 race teams now (including 1 pro team) doing web, graphics, clothing design etc. The team that I've just done all the logo and clothing designs for have just got the team fleeces printed up and selling them for £40 each - top price and helps him fund some racing too. This is mostly aimed at G really, as I know quite a few people would be interested in buying Team BCF clothing!! It won't make you lots of money, but anything is better than nothing IMO. Just a thought as sponsorship is near impossible to come by unless you're very very very good. ____________________ Current Toys: 06 Yamaha WR250F | Nissan 350Z GT | Tech 4 Homes |
