Can you post one with the SRIC logo off of the car (maybe on the ground silohette)? Then some more detail on the grill and hood scoop. The car just looks funny with the logo all over it (it could just be my crappy depth perception).
On the pace notes, could you move the handwritten notes (which I like) to the right or at least farther away from the SRIC. The second and third ones take away from the SRIC standing out on it's own.
I second the idea of putting the stars between Sac & Reno, although I don't know if the detail will show up.
C note: Dorifto!

Think of it this way: "Sacramento" and "Reno" are describing the type of "Impreza Club". If there's no slash or an "&", then the order becomes unclear... is this a Reno Impreza Club, that's of the Sacramento variety? We want to convey that the club is as much a "Sacramento Impreza Club" as it is a "Reno Impreza Club"... and I think the slash does that.
At least that's what I thought when I was making it. "Sacramento Reno Impreza Club" needs something... a slash, a dash, an ampersand... something... and I think the slash is the least distracting, and most accurate.

I originally had the handwritten notes all on the right, but I thought they looked a bit "fake", and not so handwritten... however, you make a very good point about making sure the "SRIC" stands out. I'll try to figure something out.
And "Dorifto" is *perfect*!! lol

You are right, of the choices available, it works the best.
I will settle.
Everything else is perfect, great job. I can't wait to get my shirts.
