Sponsors for RX7?

So I have a friend with a STI he's sponsored by cruicial and is trying to break the 1/4 time record on stock turbo.

I'm just wonder what kind of numbers have 7's been known to push on stock engine ( none port ) and what kind of times they have.. I know that 7's are getting rare by the minute so not many shops for them around so there for I'm thinking no one really sponsors any 7 owns or do they?

Does anyone know of any 7's getting sponsored by shops or what not. I'm looking to put out some serious money as my seven grows with me buthaving a sponsor would help and give me more goal...

so all in all does anyone knwo of sponsors for the 7s or what not?

who cares about a stock port record or a record on a stock turbo, you're still going to be slower than a mod'd one

You could try to break the record for number of days between engine rebuilds.

yea Tearbo and Carl Byck both did over 500 on stock port S4 motors, i'm sure there is others also. the motors can handle it if the tune is sufficient and no other problems are present.
