Hi my name is keith, I run a small business,

I love racing and motorcyles ,
and I WOULD like to sponser a DD racer next year 2007 season..
I have never done this type of thing before
So It would be nice if you could help me and tell me the diferent area's of your racing where I could help with the costs.

1000% genuine offer !

I believe this way i can get some stickers on your bike for my advertising?

SO WHO WANTS SOME HELP?

dickieducati 19-Oct-2006 09:35

loaded my arse!

why?

you'll get plenty of exposure from a podium chasing bike that will be up there and will look superb next year. likely to be fully faired with huge amounts of space to get your message across directly to the people that will be interested.

could get alot of great exposure for relatively little outlay.

dickieducati 19-Oct-2006 09:37

the other 99,946 words will be along shortly.

madmav 19-Oct-2006 09:38

phil_h 19-Oct-2006 09:55

What would a 10ft sign on each side of my towavan and a 5ft sign on the back be worth ?
I've always fancied looking like I was important and the trailer needs painting :lol:

'The Nurburgring Experience'
sounds good to me :)

Ian 19-Oct-2006 10:07

Keith, just a thought, - have you thought about being a sponsor for the series? Then every bike has your stickers on them. Or how about offering a prize, - for say the Assen round? Just a thought, but you offer a service that might well be of interest to all of the riders, - lots of options.

madmav 19-Oct-2006 10:12

food for thought Ian,

But dont you think 1 "Public flogging" a day is enough for anyone ?

lol

I both agree and disagree with you Ian.

I agree in that I wouldn't mind at all having Madmav's stickers on me bike knowing he's sponsoring the series in any way.

But we already have to apply a lot of series sponsors stickers, and for some of which it's not clear to us racers what they bring to the series. I won't mention any name, I don't want to upset some important people.

So to summarize I quite like the idea Ian, but we need to keep a bit of room on our bikes for our personal sponsors (if we can find some...) as well. And on a naked Monster, the room is quite limited :)

I hope my comment will be seen as constructive as it's what it aims to be.

finished the year as top novice in class B and 4th overall and will be aiming to win class B next year but could do with some help in setting up the bike as its still 1994 standard.

My number is 07921717078 is you like to talk to me

couchcommando 19-Oct-2006 11:38

Me me me , but seriously I don't want your money so give it to fil2 and have your name on one of the winning bikes :)

Grib 19-Oct-2006 11:42

Oooh yes please :) Why, well, as the only girl in Desmo Due (that I know of at present anyway) I am fairly easy to spot, my bike is lovingly prepared by myself and Couch in our workshop and I think she looks the part, but some nice sponsorship stickers would liven her up a bit ;) I can make a mean bacon and mushroom roll in the caravan, essential for any race fan :lol:

psychlist 19-Oct-2006 11:54

Of course you could always sponsor an ex-DD racer. For a not inconsiderable sum I'd happily parade your stickers around the Nurburgring track all day, every weekend during the summer. You can't ask for more than that eh Mav ;)

kye 19-Oct-2006 13:12

I could do with any help I can get Mav

http://www.ducatisportingclub.com/sh...ad.php?t=37700

With the right help and the ability to afford trackdays to gain circuit knowledge, something which I've been lacking this year I feel I am capable of running at the front, which I proved at Cadwell by taking pole 583 position since it's the only track I haven't had to learn during qualifying

Thanks for reading, Kyle

Keith,
Don't listen to Paul, you'll spend an absolute fortune on replacing your advertising stickers when they become abraded against the tarmac several times each year. :p ;) Although I don't race in the DD, I am known to frequent DD meetings and track days to support my fellow DSC / DD members. I'll do the same as Paul at the 'Ring', only at a much slower pace, at least this way "Joe Public" will have the time to be able to read your stickers and anyway I think they'll look good on a 1098S. Sponsor me, you know it makes sense. :D

Richard.

I need sponsoring Mav!!

I just lost one very good sponsor who made a big difference to me this season :sniff:

We have all the gear and a great infrastructure, but I need some financial help. I earn, wait for it... £780 a month!! That just about covers, rent, bills and loans etc. (I've been stacking 2006 racing costs on my dad's credit card, and he doesn't earn much more than me!!)

I know it may look like we have lots of cash and the motorhome etc. but we don't. Chass has invested £000's already (and so have I), so a little help towards entries would be what I'm looking for in 2007.

We won't be doing so many trackdays in 2007 (probably none!) and we'll use 3-4 sets of tyres (£390-£520).

It doesn't sound much (to some), but I simply don't have the £300-£500 a month spare income to go racing (and I aint gunna retire yet!!). I've had a couple websites which have helped get me out of a hole here and there, but it's sporadic.

I think my sponsors get value for money too.

Racedays for example will be getting 40 (hopefully) potential new customers on a pre-season test weekend in February. Louigi Moto has got lots of business via the Doomski. I think Henners had a good season, and Chass does it for the love :D

So there we are. Dom's 'plea' for help. I think you could help anyone in DD, they're all deserving of some support - even the filthy rich ones - it takes a lot of effort and commitment (as well as cash) to get out there every weekend - especially when the yacht is calling :lol:

:)

Tonio600 19-Oct-2006 20:36

If I had some, my money would be on the wonderboy :)
