    Default ***Design the Batlground drift cars for 2008 Contest***

    We need to redesign the cars for 2008. They need to be orange and black. They also need to match, but they don't need to be twins. We want to be able to tell them apart for next year. We want them to be artful, but we still need to be able to read the sponsor logos...so keep that in mind. We will paint the cars for a background and then we can do the rest in vinyl.

    Post up your design and if we choose yours we'll put it on our cars next year.

    some Japanese examples:

    We have a sticker plotter. I wouldn't mind a wrap but I don't want to pay for it. I have a paint sponsor.

    Sorry I forget that not everyone knows our cars

    It shouldn't take much more than knowing the cars need to be orange and black. The title sponsor is Maxxis. The rest of the logos shouldn't really matter just yet. That's just a matter of placement. I'm sure you can improvise for now. I'm speaking of the theme of the cars right now. I don't expect the paint scheme to stay the same either. It just has to be mostly or all orange.

    Here's pics of the car:

    Keep in mind that they have those wheels because that is what Konig wanted them to have on them.

    I already knew that but i'm sure they can find a better sponsor or at least one willing to give them wheels that they actually sell, not the ones nobody wants

    Maxxis if anyone should have some pull on wheel manufacturers.

    BUT if you don't want to do the "all" orange scheme then maybe something like the G'zox JGTC 350z but that would be too much like the Hankook cars, which i seriously doubt Maxxis would be too fond of

    We like Konig. THEY have a lot of pull in the industry and they have been very good to us. They asked us to build a car for their SEMA booth which is a huge deal. Their booth is very high profile and it may give us the opportunity to get a free car out of the deal. You might be surprised to hear that lots of people like those wheels. Everyone always asks us about them at the events. Maxxis has no pull in the industry right now. They are starting to, but they are the new kids on the block.

    The wheels are what "makes or breaks" any paint/design scheme, looking at their 2007 line now...do you get to have a choice?

    Most of their wheels seem to only be a 7" width, assume you need at least 9" in the rear? haha

    The Stampede (Black Opal) is available in 18x10, guess it's a decent looking one

    Doubt you'll get a logical answer back.

    It's a hybrid of the LS1 and LS6 -- only arguement you can really have is in stock form it has high compression for a V8 of its size and might not the best for boosting. I'm sure the LS2 would be (re)built to match Dan's needs so not like it would really matter what stock form is. Change the cam's, a little intake work, plus fuel work and you should be able to get 500hp out of it

    Then as you know with Erin's, the wingless vs. winged oil pans -- gotta have that baffled 'vette oil pan, holds a quart less oil but keeps it where it should be

    How about tiger stripes and a picture of Tigger on the sides bouncing on his tail? I'm not the sharpest at photochops, but I can draw a 'lil
