Best of luck to you mate. There are a huge number of people out there trying to do same thing. If you have any mates that run a company, or mates of mates then they should be your first point of contact.
Get yourself a copy of 'Flat out, flat broke' Perry McCarthy's autobiography (ex F1 driver and the first Stig on Top Gear). That book is a real eye opener. It'll give you some inspiration but also tell you what an absolute nightmare getting cash to go racing is !

Have you tried a bank? Seriously? Try talking to their head of PR. They all have a tranche of money they divvy up after 1st April. I suspect you are not asking for a great amount. If your activity fits into their current sponsorship agenda they might listen to you. Obviously you have to be in a position to offer them some sort of social or publicity return, or both. It's worth a try.
As usual, you've missed my point.
that's nae bad - I'm goin to sell the hot rod this month so hopefully I can cover costs when I sell it.
I tell you what, once go into the new job, I'll put a bit in the sport for you - a pic of you and the car and a bit of text about hillclimbing etc and mentioning you're looking for sponsorship.

at would be good like when you say hot rod you mean the pug
are you goin to put the nissan into a garage to get done
have you had a right look over it yet to see what amount of work needed 4 mot yet
aye the pug. once I sell it, I'll use the money from it to fund the work on the Nissan. It'll need everything that was on the mot failure sheet and probably a wee bit more (can't remember what it needs exactly but it definitely needs track rod ends, rear discs, 2 tyres. There's probably a whole lot more and I doubt it'll pass emissions at the moment).

you gan to dee a that yourel casue i will gee you a hand if you want save you money min cause you will
need most o the cash for the parts
Aye, if I can get a hand that would be superb. You'll have to have a right look at it and see what if you can see anything that needs done. I'm nae in a rush to get it done - don't think I'll do the 1st Fintray, but want to do the second one and alford.
