well really i dont feel "owned" what i ment is that they dont seem like they help enough to get things alot cheaper. I got alot of parts thought them and it was easy. the money thing.... its 80 dollars.... and you can claim it on taxes because it goes to a charity against illegal street racing. anyhoo... without them my car would be what it is today... its 90% done and all i need now is my Sr20. don't bash on them too hard they help you out alot if you have nothing to start with. i would love some kind of full sponsorship, but those are really hard to come by. SCP isnt bad at all guys... i guess you wouldnt know unless you try it for yourself.
