Anyone else interested in Drivers Club Sprint stickers ?

[keelerad 256]

I thought it seemed a bit odd that we are sprinting covered in advertising for others and we don't have any club branding on the cars

 

I have contacted a couple of places about getting stickers made up with this image that we could stick onto mag vinyl

This lot are in Manchester

 

For 10 or 20, the cost will be £5.00 per piece. (This was for 500mm wide)

 

That means we would be talking (if we go with the cheaper) £10 a car

 

Any interest ?

I'll have a set! 

 

Also need to get some company logo sorted out for my own sponsorship, may make sense to use these guys then. 

[Jamie_GRMN 177]

I'll have a set too

[mike-p 116]

Me too!

Can we at least use the correct font? It really irritates me... Plus them prices seem expensive 

[keelerad 256]

If you have a decent vector graphic where the stars don't look like blobs we can use that instead, it stars that are blobby that irritates me

 

I have no idea if that's expensive or not, I got 2 quotes and these companies are not charging tooling up costs, a few of the others I looked at wanted to charge £50-£60 for setup

 

So Rob doesn't like them and thinks they are too expensive ,

 

Do those of you that actually expressed an interest want to go ahead using that image (with the Font Rob finds irritating) from Demon Graphics at £10 a set, if so we need at least one more to get that price.

 

Mike A, Faith are you interested ?

They are blobby for a reason, so they don't peel, that said these are going on magnets so won't be an issue. I can make it later, i'd rather you used the correct font. Otherwise the club is just a waste of time for me. (yes i don't expect you to understand)

[chillismoke 182]

seems expensive, but good idea. I also need 2 stickers making of my charity's logo

[Mike 458]

Can put me down for a set, happy to use the font that Rob doesn't like

 

Don't mind paying a little extra so that they don't peel off like some of the TSS ones did so you end up with bits missing

[Lauren 2259]

I'm with Rob, if we're going to do it, it must be correct, font and all! 

[Polishingpedlar 49]

I'll have a set too please once a font/design is confirmed.

Thanks

[keelerad 256]

I really don't get the love for that font Mate (did you design it for a project at College ?  ), I think it's bogging, but I'm more worried about blobby stars as I said, if you can let me have a file with the w*nky font in I'll do a cut and shut of Steves Scoobie stars round the  official font and see what that looks like.

 

Remember this is being done much larger than the club ones, so the pointy stars will look miles better and shouldn't be an issue with staying on when washing etc as they are not intended to go on the cars directly, just the mag vinyl

It's not a love for the font, it's a case of keeping things uniform. It's like Toyota taking their logo they have used for years and rotating it 90 degrees, or changing their font. It's an identity. 

[keelerad 256]

You mean like Mazda did ? 

 

It's the Subaru stars round the 86 roundel that I like in the logo, sums up the whole joint venture to me and I wish they'd put something like that on both cars as standard.

Rob had ordered some from his local supplier as he gave a much better price, going to be £4 a sticker

Is it likely to be too late for Blyton?

[rob275 1817]

They will be available at Blyton

[Jamie_GRMN 177]

Winning!

I also really need to start putting the DC as my team name on the entry form as well

[Mike 458]

Awesome - what size did you order in the end?

[Jamie_GRMN 177]

Are these already going to be on mag board or just stickers?

They are weeded vinyl, if tyou want them on mag, you'll have to do that yourself

[keelerad 256]

Those who bought mag vinyl from me I'll mount them for them for free as I have plenty left over and you've already paid for the vinyl, for others It'll be a quid extra per sticker, so £5 mounted £4 unmounted (all money from these goes to club funds)

 

So who wants what then ?

 

So far :

Jamie £8 (he gets free mag mounting)

 

Alec

[Jamie_GRMN 177]

Don't worry about mag mounting for me, I've plenty left over so will bring some.

[Mike 458]

I'll take a pair Alec. I've still got plenty of the vinyl left so can put them on myself, just need to know how big they are as I'd rather not bring the whole roll

Nice people -

 

Now that the Blyton entry is published we can see who has entered under the DC team name... eight? ten?.. really good that we're all buzzing - oh, apart from RRG and Fensport, who are Sloane Rangers to our East Enders.. (tee hee..)

 

£8 per pair for DC stickers seems a lot to me. And the Club should issue these free of charge (in my opinion) to anyone who enters under the DC team entry, subject to the (1) below.

 

If the design can be printed on white A3/A4 paper (portrait or landscape)  I can laminate (encapsulate) them free of charge (with overlap for weatherproofing) and double sided tape will keep them on mag backing.

 

10p per photocopy, 20p per lamination, 10p for d/stick tape, 60p for mag backing... £7.00 for beer.... that's what I call a real deal, Mr. Dickinson...Rob, if you'd like to send me a .pdf to required size  I will 'dummy' a set up and bring them to Blyton for the Members to review. I'll dummy a set on mag and wear them/ get Jamie to slap them on his car.

 

 

(1) All drivers who wish to take part in the Toyota Sprint Series GT86 Cup Division should (must?) be personal Premier members of the DC. You might need to get this agreed by Javelin/Fensport.

 

Fensport and RRG have team entries  - all three drivers  (Lauren - Stan - Adrian) are premier members, yes?

This does not preclude any newby/dark sider from sprinting in the 'general' TSS in the GT86 classes  but the DC 'launched' the GT86 Cup, so competitors in the Cup should be Premier members of the DC.
