Sponsorship Idea. This could Take Off.

[davidwest]

I have a Sponsorship idea. What if everybody got together and sponsor somebody here on the forum. This is my Idea. This forum has about 250 (Pacific Northwest) people that view it(?). Everybody pools $1-$10 dollars, and a name gets pulled out of hat....or ? If we pooled $500 dollars that could be Stage 1.... window tinting.... Mopar Exhaust.... BOV.... STS.... etc (whatever). I would put in $10 to have the chance to have the forum sponsor me. I would like to hear some feedback on this idea. How could this idea be successful? First the monies should not go to a person (the money needs to go to a trust account of sorts). Next, everybody needs a fair shot at getting the sponsorship.

I bet you'd get a better response if your termed it a raffle. But it'd still have to appeal to everyone. The only thing i'd give money for would be a stage 3.

A raffle would be great. Maybe if we ran it on the main SRT forum. If we ran a raffle how many members are there on this site?

David it is not a bad idea. A Car Club in Oregon use to do something similiar. Monthly dues were like $25. they had like 20 members. So there would be like $500 in the kitty every month. well each month it went to a new member. So like Jan. it went to Paul. Feb it went to jason. so on. they had to use the money on the car, you could use the $500 towards your 5k paint job. or buy $500 worth of new wires and wheels. That way the group was constantly making there cars better and winning more trophies at the shows, and cars always had new stuff done instead of car always looking the same.

Anyways I would pitch in $10.

I would pitch in money if it were for something more generic and not manufacturer specific as I don't own an SRT, but am constantly modding one of my cars.
