Ok so here is the deal this company called rk sport offered me a sponsorship ? whats up with this should i be taking it or what kind of steps should i approach?
55% payed on all parts ordered
$10,000 contract
thease are the specs and all parts have to be bought thru them only what should i do take it or have a little bit of caution about it ??


Here is the problem with all this. The whole deal was NOT through RkSport. If you look carefully, and you actually read what the guy said in his first post you will see that its very close to what the "scam" company called Sport Compact Pro or Racer X is / was offering a long while ago and they prolly still are. The problem is what they do is they get a very long list of "manufactures" and they put them on the so called "list" which you will be sponsored from and make it seem like its the best deal in the world.

The reason why I know this is because two years ago, Racer X set up an account with me (Car Customs) and was buying parts. I had no clue about the whole sponsoring thing until a long while after which then they just stopped buying parts.... The problem is when you actually get the application to fill out Car Customs is listed under the list of "companies" which you will be "sponsored" from . . . . . . . I don't know if they have taken my name out of there scam or not.....

All in all, its not RKsport, its Sport Compact Pro or whom ever that has put RK down as a company which they "deal" with and thats why the guy got it all confused . . .

Cut the guys some slack... no need for everyone to jump down his throat...

Seriously, Karo. You've gotta go back and read the whole thread.

You know me well enough to know I'm not gonna wish harm on someone just because they're a moron. That kid was OFF HIS ROCKER.

At the end of page 2, it all comes together, hence my first response earlier in this thread.

alot of it had to do with the way he came off to everyone


granted he was new here , but rk's name gets mentioned alot , so its not like you could really miss the fact rk sport is a real company , and been around along time


he got the kinda resonse anyone would have gotten asking if rk was a real company


granted its hard to see humor over the internet , but like alot of people it was easier for him to go off on people rather then to ask why it was a stupid question

Still the kid shouldnt have acted like that. And granted some of our responces were not totally called for. None the less it was still funny.

And even if that kid did own a J i dont think he will return for our friendly advice.

As for RK i think they really should look at the legal aspect of the SCP scam. From the sound of it they should be taken out.

I'm glad something got RK's attention on this site, but maybe that attention should be put towards their @!#$ty customer service.


AMEN!

Hey Jim, how about a simple acknowledgement for our shop (since any discount was too much), AUTO AND AUDIO, figuring out how to PROPERLY hook up the headlight conversion for oem function which none of your "techs" have a clue how to do. We posted it here last year. Not to mention the horrible customer service we received - twice. And the fact that you personally renigged on your end of the deal (May 3, 2004) to reimburse me for the price of my kit if I mentioned RK Sport 3 times in a magazine feature. Which I did in 2 seperate magazines, one of which was Car Sound and Performance, not some little rag.

Way to jack the thread!

Jim is dishonest, I spoke to him on the phone when he refused to fulfill the agreement. I haven't condemned RK on the .org before, but if he is listening I will. I'm sure everyone of you would have been equally irritated.

HOLY COW!!! I looked at that post earlier today and there was 1 response... what in the heck did I miss?!?!?! LOL

I can't believe that kid was being such an arse about everything. What company in their right mind would ever want someone like that to represent them???

Wow, I got such a big laugh out of that last thread by Jakie, I see why I love coming to this site alot...never know what I am going to read. Maybe this was Jakie's plan...perhaps start with a small question that snowballs into a big fuss in hopes of obtaining sponsorship through RK Sport. If he was being scammed by a different company using the good name of RK Sport, I say that Jakie boy should have gotten everything that was coming to him because of his urine-like behavior.

Now not to thread jack...but I probably am anyways, but is WinMX really back up, I thought they closed shop.

Hehe I know that. What I meant was who would think with an attitude like that, that some company would want to sponsor them?? ie... wouldn't he think for one minute "Hey, this company is giving me a sponsorship. It wouldn't be cool if I was acting like an arse, I have to represent them. Instead, he seems to think "Yo I'm mad cool yo... I gotz sponsurships, and I iz beter then ya'll cuz i hav a sponzurship and yew don't yo... u all suk and r fagz cuz muh ride iz mad tyte yo..." Wait... nevermind lol.

Just reaffirms that people just plain don't think. I wish people would think.... and learn to accept responsibility for their own mistakes instead of blaming anyone and anything else they can.... and stop being "offended" by everything... amongst other things lol. It'll never happen... but one can dream... right?

thats why i notified Rksport about the thread. it wasnt to "own" him or anything like that, it was because if for whatever reason he really did apply for or had been granted a sponsorship that the company understand the personality of the person they were dealing with. Turns out the whole thing was a scam anyways so it didnt really matter. I am sure however that the fact that a lot of people defended RKsport in the thread that the company still found reading the thread worth while.
