We need a slogan for the race club so we are having a contest to help us decide.
We will put this slogan on shirts and other items but the shirts are first so I will talk a bit about them. This slogan will appear on shirts first but should not be specific to just a shirt in case we want to use it elsewhere. For example on the back of a shirt you might say, “If you can read this I’m winning” but that would make no sense on a coffee mug and neither would “ TEAM VK56 won the race and all I got was this shirt”
Don’t focus on the Club logo either because that will go on the left shirtsleeve or the left front chest in a small 2 or 3” format as the club identifier. The shirts may end up having TEAM VK56 on the front or back as well as the slogan but this contest is just for the slogan alone and nothing else. The print colors have been worked out already as well and they are red, gray and black and the shirts themselves will be white, black or gray. We will have a design contest following the slogan contest to decide parts of the overall shirt design but this contest is just for the slogan.
Here are the rules:
1. No profanity or variation of anything that could be considered profane. For example “My headers have tough nuts” or “How do you like my engine hose” would not be acceptable. Use your imaginations but keep it ultra clean, this is to be a family friendly slogan.
2. Try to keep it short, no one wants to read War and Peace off of a shirt or anything else.
3. No race type or vehicle references allowed. For example, “Titans rule” or “Follow me to the drag strip” will not be acceptable. It’s all about the engine and not the type of racing or the Titan in specific.
4. Anyone can participate, you do not have to be a member of the club yet.
5. You are allowed to take someone else’s slogan and modify it. For example, if you saw “The VK56 rules the races”, you could change it to “The VK56 rules”.
Just submit your slogan in this thread and if you like a slogan or two, quote it in a post and tell us you like it. We will have to narrow it down to three or four for voting but in the mean time we just want to see where this goes and are going to give it a week before we start voting. The voting will then run for another week and after we have a slogan we will start the graphic design portion of the contest.
Have fun with it, you have at least one week to give it your best shot.
