Now we're getting somewhere! lol

How about the rally style shorthand notes vs. the longer notes in the ()'s? Keep 'em both? Ditch the shorthand? I wanted the notes to look realistic, but I also wanted them to be understanable to the common person. Comments?

Indeed!

And I think maybe a handwriting font might look cooler on the pace notes, authenticity aside.

agreed entirely, I really like the "active weight transfer" comment, not sure how it would fit in..

How about a "snow donkey" reference

Oh noes is always good/

How about black lower grill cutout, windshield cutout, and SRIC/"notes" in the windshield?


Or is it better from an applique persective to have a large block with cutouts than smaller elements?

Ditch the () on either side of the long notes. I say keep the shorthand, add the jokes, personalized stuff below. Of course then you have to work them back into the shorthand notes still.

I second the idea of white/blue or blue/white... let's stay away from black or grey, we all have a bunch of those anwyay.

The resolution of the screening process is incredible... you don't really have to worry too much about things like that.

Also, I like the silhouette of the car... it's obvious what it is, and helps emphasize the "sric" in the pace notes.

I like the car logo as is...all the other logos already have the grill headlight cut outs, I like the variation on this one.

How about Navy shirts with yellow ink
