I'm a really good driver in Need for Speed, can I get a Scion Racing sponsorship?

Then why should we?

I have done quite a few track days, car shows, car events, autocross events, so on and so forth. Thats the reason the scion representatives spoke to me in the first place. My car isnt heavily modded, but its more modified than a general car.

Im not telling you to you are the one who elected to view this post and comment your thoughts. If you werent going to donate so be it. The fact that you keep posting is pointless if you had no plan on donating.

Ok, put the resume for you AND your car on your page and be humble about it. Be as detailed as possible and list all mods/dates/events/times/data/pics etc and sell yourself and your car.

And what do you mean "more modified than a general car." ?

He's stationed at Dyess AFB. He's probably an A1C or a young SrA based on his demeanor and the fact that he's taking college, which means that he's done with his career field training. Given that he didn't include housing or taking care of his family in his list of expenses, he may still live in the dorms. The boys and girls club is a volunteer bullet, which we all have to do one or two of for our performance reports. Not exactly out of the goodness of our hearts.


Military pay is not the greatest, as you well know from your time. Even once you've got some years behind you. You know what I do about that? I don't go to track days. After housing, family, college, and everything else, I can't afford the entry fee and I can't afford to fix my car if it shits itself. Sacrifices have to be made, and luxuries are always the first to go.

Someone who isnt really into cars will leave the car relatively stock but i have had stuff made for my car by engineers so that i have a little more power compared to a basic one.

I'm an engineer, I modified my tire pressure therefore it is better than your modified tire pressure which was likely not done by an engineer.

Gotta be careful man, not every modder has the right know-how to add a safety factor of 2 in all the right places, that's why my tires are at 74 psi.

Lol at your post

I remember the first time I went to investors to get funding for a project I had been working on. My presentation was half-assed thinking that my idea alone would sell itself without any practice or prep. Welp, after my presentation came the questions. They were questions that I did not have already well thought out answers for, so I went on the defensive trying to defend myself and my idea, not realizing that the questions were merely a test to see how I handled myself when rattled. Needless to say, I did not receive any backing...

So I put on my big boy pants and got myself honest-to-god prepared for another attempt. Planned out for every contingency, got my strategy and goals well articulated, and even ironed my shirt/pants for the next meeting. With my visual aids, charts, and business plan ready, I went in with my head held high and gave the most kickass presentation of all time (seriously, Abe Lincoln and MLK would be proud).

And you know what?... I still didn't get any funding. Do you know why? Because life doesn't owe any of us shit, and it would rather see us curl up into the fetal position drenched in our own piss and die, rather than help any of us by giving out even one rusty penny fished out from amongst its crusty toe-jam casually discarded into a locked trash bin!
