CSR may be on there but they don't pay anyway.
I do not see how they get listed each year when they don't pay the racer anyway.
Still waiting on my payment from CSR for a starter and water pump!
No More Purchases From Me!

CSR's stuff is beautifully made, but as a company... what a mess. Called to ask for a certain catch can. You could practically hear her rummaging around in the back room...

"Hmmm... gee, no, I don't think we have... wait... no... hmmm... nope, don't think so."
"Can I order one?"
"Oh! Order one? Ummm... no, I don't think so."

Fortunately Summit had one in their basement...

CSR beautifully made. I don't think so.
My water pump lasted about 6 months and the motor just quit during a run.
Lucky I was at a national event and was able to buy a replacement motor.
Next time I will buy a competitors pump since CSR does not even pay their own dealers who race.
No More CSR for me.

I bought a Meziere water pump instead of the CSR (because they would actually ship it) and I love it. Works well, and pretty too.

Been running CSR for years, have always kept a spare motor in trailer for yrs because I have always needed on at the worst time.

BB you are right. I just sent an email to Dart for what I thought was going above and beyond.

In case the rest of you don't know about this I will fill you in. I was fortunate enough to win T/D at Summit Motorsports Parks Div race. When I go through contingency is that Dart only pays for one product (heads?) and I have decals on for block and intake as well but hey they posted for heads and I have a decal I will take the money. I get a check from them a few weeks later and all is great. A couple of months later I manage to win the LODRS race at Bowling Green and claim my one Dart product. A couple of weeks later I get the check, but there is also a note that says "you can claim more contingency by going to www.dartcontingency.com". So I log on to their site and fill out the form for both Norwalk and BG for my block and intake and two weeks later I get a check for both products for both races! How's that?! Not only did they pay me promptly, they told me how to get more money and it was simple. I'm still amazed by that.

Maybe some complanies see it as a gift card they hope never gets redeemed, but I'm not cynical enough to think all of them or most of them do. Certainly not Dart.

I'm also with BB on getting paid. I don't win all the time, but I got paid by every sponsor but one in the last 3 years in both IHRA and NHRA. The one didn't pay went out of business. I have never called a single sponsor to hound them for a check. I don't mind waiting for them, as long as they come.

Carry on....

Glad she is paying attention! I'm working with CSR to get paid and the proof of purchase seems to be the most common snag! I mean that, just because your car has the part on it isn't enough for a lot of these companies! You have to be the purchaser of the product, not the guy you bought the car, motor, or weather station from! Alot of them have posted registration rules(some are ridiculous) and some are understandable! Some have a very short(1-3 year) time limits. I guess they don't think their part should last very long! Anyway I think Lindsay at CSR will get it right! I will let ya'll know as should GGFast! Miss you out here Gar! It's HOT down here and some Ice Cream would really hit the spot! LOL
