Trompo for brands

Your brand next to a drift car

One BMW E36, one driver and your brand on the car for a period, not for a day: you come in as the official supplier paying in kind, as an associate sponsor or as the main sponsor, and your sticker stays on for the whole period, whether the car goes out or not. If what you want is a single date, we also run one off activations. On the circuit we work Monday to Thursday. At your own venue, to be arranged: it depends on transport and on the space passing the site visit.

What sponsoring drift is (and what it is not)

For a small brand, sponsoring is not renting a banner and waiting, and it is not buying a day either. It is being on the car for a period, and what you get scales with what you put in: it can be money or it can be a trade in kind, like the oil shop that hands over the oil and takes a small sticker.

  • Sponsor, auspiciante or patrocinador of a car: all three are used in Argentina and we say sponsor. Careful with the bare Spanish word patrocinio, which in Argentina usually means legal aid, which is why we talk about being a sponsor or about sponsoring a drift car.
  • The permanent livery of the car belongs to Trompo. Your brand goes on as removable vinyl over that livery for the period you book, and it comes off when the period ends. The exact size of each piece is set in the proposal: the panels have not been measured yet and we are not going to invent centimetres for you.
  • Exclusivity by industry and for the period you book: if your oil brand comes in, no other oil brand comes in while your contract runs. And never more than four outside stickers on the car at the same time, so yours can be seen.
  • What is not for sale at any price: the big TROMPO on the sides, the 36 on the roof, the number plate on the bumper, the name of the car (there is no title sponsor, the car is called TROMPO and no brand goes in front of that) and the paint. Every outside graphic is removable vinyl.
  • A trade in kind is valued at counter price, goes in writing and the product has to be really used: if the car does not consume it, it is not a trade. And the trade is discounted from the amount, never added on top.
  • What it is not: we do not sell reach, impressions or sales, and we do not shoot video. We sell presence over a period, access to the car and photos.

Tiers and activations

Three tiers by period, from the supplier who pays only in kind to the main sponsor of the year, and apart from them the activations by date, which carry no period and no exclusivity. The floor of each tier is not published because it moves with what you put in: the only published figure is the one for the show. The rest is built to measure and quoted on WhatsApp.

The three tiers

Tier 1: official supplier

  • Three months, renewable. You pay only in kind: oil, filters, fluids, pads, tyres, alignment, fitting and balancing, bodywork or transport.
  • The tyre unit is a pair of rears per track day. Fitting and balancing also count as a valid trade.
  • You get a small sticker per side, a mention as the supplier for your industry in the date announcements and photos of the car with your product fitted. The exact size is set in the proposal.

Trade only, agreed on WhatsApp

Tier 2: associate sponsor

  • Six months. You pay in money, or in money mixed with a trade in kind.
  • Medium surface: the front wings and the boot lid. Logo and link on this page for the whole period.
  • One class seat for whoever your brand picks, one passenger run for your team and photos from every month the car goes out.

Quoted on WhatsApp

Tier 3: main sponsor

  • Twelve months. You pay in money and we accept up to a third in kind.
  • The big piece on the front or the rear window, plus everything in the tier below.
  • One outing of the car to an event of your brand within the year and a written wrap up every six months.

Quoted on WhatsApp

Activations by date

Drift show at your event

  • Outside the tiers: it runs for one date, with no period and no industry exclusivity.
  • A run of a few minutes with the E36 and a driver, with the public behind a marked perimeter.
  • Coordination and transport are defined by venue and date. Extra runs, ambulance and medical cover are quoted separately depending on the event.

from 500 USD

≈ $795.000 ARS (dólar P2P del 08.09.2026)

Price per event. The base show is one run of a few minutes.

Track session for your team

  • Outside the tiers, for one date: you bring your film crew and we provide car, driver and track.
  • Your product on the stand next to the car. Photos yes, video we do not do.
  • The footage your team shoots is yours; our photos are ours and go out with your brand named.

Quoted on WhatsApp

Curso Pro for a driver or a creator

  • Your brand pays the Curso Pro for a driver or a creator: from zero to their first linked slide in five classes.
  • Classes run Monday to Thursday and the series stretches over weeks, because it depends on how the days come together.
  • Photos and posts from us with your brand named; whatever the creator films belongs to the creator. It runs for the series, not for a period.

Quoted on WhatsApp

Integration with a creator of yours

  • Car, driver and track for the video of a creator with your brand. The creator films, not us.
  • We do not promise views or reach, and we do not find creators for you: if you already have one, we coordinate it. No period and no exclusivity.

Quoted on WhatsApp

Exclusivity by industry and for the period you book, and never more than four outside stickers at the same time. The tiers publish no floor because what you put in can be money, a trade in kind or both: the trade is valued at counter price and discounted from the amount. Activations by date give no period and no exclusivity.

If you have been comparing with other sports

We are going to say it before you ask: drift is not more popular, more massive or more watched than football or Formula 1, and the gap is several orders of magnitude. There is no independent audience measurement of drift anywhere in the world either: the series publish their own numbers or they publish none at all. We would rather you hear it from us and not from your boss once you have already signed.

What we can back up is something else. Your brand is on the car for the whole period, you are the only one in your industry while it runs and your guest gets inside. That is what we call a high quality contact: the person got into the car, or saw it go past 10 or 20 metres away from behind the perimeter, and filmed their own video with their phone. What you will not find here is a cost per contact comparison against other sports, because we have not run a day with the guests of a brand yet and we have not measured it: any number would be made up. What is published, sport by sport, with source and date, we put together in a separate note.

How it is measured

What you will get in writing and what we will never promise you.

What we give

  • Our photos of every date the car goes out during your period: the car, your graphics and your guests.
  • Our posts and stories from those dates, with your brand named.
  • Every guest leaves with the photos and videos they take on their own phone: they make them and they own them, we do not film or edit.
  • A written wrap up of what was done: dates, runs, guests who got in and material delivered. On tier 3 the wrap up comes every six months.

What we do not promise

  • Reach, impressions or views. They are not bought and we do not guarantee them.
  • Video. We do not film or edit: if you want video, you bring your crew and we give you car, driver and track.
  • Sales. Nobody serious will promise you that an activation sells, and neither do we.
  • A number of dates. We do not guarantee how many times the car goes out during your period: your sticker is on for the whole period, whether the car goes out or not.

If you have to take a number back to your report, the honest thing today is to count pieces of content and high quality contacts (people who got into the car or who saw it go past 10 or 20 metres away from behind the perimeter), not impressions.

Facts and conditions

What a sponsor and an agency ask first, with dates and no rounding.

Our numbers, with dates

  • The car needs around 30 minutes standing still between one run and the next to cool down. We measured it on 24.08.2026, on our first real track day with students.
  • That is why a show lasts minutes and not an hour, and why the drift taxi runs with pauses. We would rather tell you now than on the day of the event.
  • Two track days of our own held up to 11.09.2026. We have not run a day with the guests of a brand yet: the day we do, the real number will be here.
  • We do not publish followers or social reach until we have our own figure with a date. If somebody hands you that number without a source, be suspicious.

How it is booked

  • Factura C invoice (monotributo).
  • Contract for the period you book, or for the event if it is a one off activation.
  • Declaration signed by every passenger.
  • 50% by bank transfer to block the circuit and the car; the balance before the event.
  • In pesos, at the P2P dollar of the day.

Safety

  • Every guest signs the declaration and the safety briefing before getting in. Helmet provided.
  • Over 18 only in the car.
  • Ambulance and medical cover are quoted separately depending on the event. None of this includes a policy of ours: we do not have one and we do not offer one. The cover at the venue is provided by the venue, according to what the venue tells us: ask us for the written certificate before the event and read it.
  • No alcohol before getting into the car, passengers included. If your brand runs a tasting, it goes after the last run.
  • The public watches from behind a marked perimeter, never inside the sliding area.

The car

There is only one: a rear wheel drive BMW E36 328i, with a standard interior, no roll cage and no harnesses. In the drift taxi the car moves between 20 and 50 km/h. We say it before your compliance team asks, not after.

Frequently asked questions

How far in advance do we have to book?

It depends on what you are booking. If you come in at a tier, the period starts once it is signed, and for the graphics add the days for design, printing and applying the vinyl: that does not happen overnight. If it is an activation by date, we work Monday to Thursday and the date is blocked with 50% by transfer, so the sooner you close, the more dates you have to choose from. With two or three weeks we can put together either one; with less, it depends on how the circuit calendar looks.

Can we see the car and the circuit before booking?

Yes. We arrange a visit so you can see the car, the surface and where people will be watching from. If the event is at your own venue, the site visit is not optional: we go, we measure the sliding area and the public perimeter, and if the space does not work we tell you before charging you and not on the day of the event.

How many guests fit into one day?

We are not going to throw you a number we have not measured yet. Your contract runs for a period and guests are counted date by date: the car takes three passengers per lap, the runs are short and it needs around 30 minutes standing still between one and the next, measured on 24.08.2026. In the proposal we put in writing how many laps fit into the track window of that date, and you work out guests from that, instead of buying a pretty figure that later does not fit.

Do you work with agencies?

Yes. We invoice the agency or the brand directly, whichever suits you better, and we work with a single contact on your side so nothing gets lost in between. The proposal comes with the lines itemised (car and driver, track, graphics, guests, ambulance) so you can present it to your client without having to recalculate anything.

Can my industry be a sponsor: alcohol, betting, tobacco or vaping?

Tobacco and vaping no: Law 26.687 bans their advertising, promotion and sponsorship, and since Resolution 549/2026 (Boletin Oficial, 04.05.2026) vapes fall under that same law. Alcohol yes, with the legends required by Law 24.788, no minors in frame and the tasting after the last run. Betting, case by case, according to the rules in force in each jurisdiction and what the school approves. This is not legal advice and we reviewed the rules on 11.09.2026.

Is it a social event and not a brand?

If you are organising a wedding, a birthday or a farewell party, it is the same car and the same driver, but the page you need is another one.

Shall we put your proposal together?

Tell us which brand you are, what you can put in (money, a trade in kind or both) and from when you want to be on the car. We reply on WhatsApp the same business day and put together the written proposal with prices within the week.
