You can dream all you want but if you want a well funded team you're going to have to work for it. Teams like team 60 work very hard to get the money they have. They are constantly calling companies and writing letters, going to meetings and trying to come up with new ways to get sponsors.

I would highly recommend reading team 60’s marketing plan, to get an idea of what direction you need to move in and just how much work it takes to be well funded.
