Well, a club isnt gonna help much for sponsorship, but it DOES raise the possibilities for more frequent meets. When you have meets, you get lots of VXs in one place. Lots of VXs turn more heads than 1. Turning heads is the first key to getting a sponsor. Once a club/meet is established, locating a good site for the meet in the next key. Find a speedshop or a car audio shop that will allow the meet to take place in their parking area. Like I said, the VX turns heads and people will come to see. This, in turn, can generate business for the shop you are out front of. And THAT, in turn, can pave the way for that particular shop to offer some sort of incentive, thus sponsorship. My 89 Z24 was sponsored years ago by Pinnacle Audio in Jersey years ago. It all started by holding Z24 meets in their lot, with their permission. This, is probably one of the more trial and error routes to take, but it works. Also, like any other system in the world, it's all in who you know.

But, a club that can arrange occasional meets and keep a tight knit community of VX owners is a good start for now. I'm telling you, with the attention that the VX draws, it is hard for a sponsor not to look in your direction. The one problem we have in THIS area in particular, is getting the VX owners to keep in contact. That makes it difficult to get more than 2-3 VX in one place at a time. I think the most we ever had show up for a meet was 6 or 7 last spring, and it was kept short. We will see though, once the weather starts picking up.

We should talk about this some more soon Nav. My sister runs a nonprofit organisation and is pretty good at setting up systems of congregation. I can get some advice from her if you are trully interested.
