Post awesome racecar liveries ITT
1 Attachment(s)
I'm thinking about buying a China-bike frame for $600 because I simply don't believe a carbon frame is really worth $2500-4000. If so, I think I'm going to paint it an awesome racecar livery like this one:

And then this, which started the idea. Its feminine, elegant, and can be done will with silver scalloped forks and stays, maybe silver on the top tube.
https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380735838 I was also thinking about "Sixty Six" in the XM script on the downtube. |

More appropriate for Trubo: https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380739409 |
HKS might be cool, Jim Clark ARX is winning right now though.

The black MX6 i'm building right now, "Home School Prom Queen" is getting the HKS livery. Because it's black, and GD chassis MX6s look close enough to an R32 that it'll at least garner some pretty hilarious double takes. |

You're poverty bike is not worthy of that Bimmer paint job. And yes, I did just properly pronounce the "i" as a short vowel sound.

I've always felt passionately about "bimmer" pronunciation but never been enough of a douche to comment about it online.
In fact, all the BMW guys use chassis codes to refer to the cars, not "Bimmer/Beemer" |

This seems to be a recurring theme with Mustangs...

I would suggest Calsonic, but then it would just be blue with a hint of bright yellow. Renown would be my choice.

Sadly, you still messed up the your/you're decision.
Some say the proletariat moderators take out their petty grievances by secretly editing posts and thread titles. I have never made a spelling or grammatical error in my life. |

e-bike post alert!!! And, actually, the e-bike hasn't been getting much use lately except as a heavy-haul grocery getter on weekends on the Jersey side. During the week, I've been running human power only on poverty-bikes. |

Well, I'm not entirely happy about this state of affairs, but at least I'm in an environment where the electric wind is not an absolute necessity. I know you think that the e-bike is a frivolous luxury, but you seriously need to look at the topo maps for coastal north San Diego county. It's insane out there; 15-20% grades everywhere.
I bet it's fun. |
+1 on gulf / martini.
they are obvious to all racers, and most others >30 y/o. They are prettier than most and definitely less complicated than the bmw art car. |

Has to be the e92 art car.
Kinda like this mx-5, its just snazzy https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380848959 but I think it should be recognizable enough for people to "get it" I know you said no gulf but I love the gulf astons and the classic prodrive le mans astons. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380848959 I know you like the old american iron stuff so maybe some american stuff. Sunoco Camaro http://www.camaro5.com/forums/attach...1&d=1254414097 AMC stuff awesome + added benefit of "Merica http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_FoXyvaPSnV...ransam-001.jpg STP https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380848959 Repsol https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380848959 Ferrari. Rosso scuderia or corsa, be a badass and leave marlboro on there https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380848959 This one might translate well to a bike https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380848959 C6r https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380848959 Viper https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380848959 Redbull is way less douchie than the played out monster stuff, some of the stock cars and aussie cars use a big ass bull that looks kinda good. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8318/8...abd6d266_b.jpg Maybe do a black and orange wheel to simulate glowing rotors, could work on some of the liveries, maybe like the prodrive astons where every picture you see has the rotors glowing. Maybe more black than this http://www.atircycles.com/Portals/0/...range_1500.jpg |

After reconsideration, if you do the ferrari car, use the bar code and see who gets it.
