Thanks Sal!

I've got so many renderings! Stay tuned for a couple more shortly.

Though, I'm still partial to my original design. It just 'speaks' to me.

Hey bud.... I should give it a try.

I'm was going more for a GT2 type look on the hood.

Hey guys.... Really appreciate the feedback.

Though, you all say to 'nix' the numbers. I actually really like the numbers. Why do you say get rid of them? Too 'loud' for you...?

This one. It's all the little things that make it crazy.
In Orange or whatever is orange in yellow, purple, green. Red just pick.
Design is good. All colors work with all the black. Like your GT3 but the RS will make it much wilder in person.

Because it looks menacing with the colors and the graphics like a race car. in a good way. Numbers belong on a track car. Not on the street.

Even with the numbers I think it looks way better than the 1st drawing.
Too much going on in the 1st one IMO.
I'm not a fan of the checkers like the 997.2.

Fair points.

Does it change your opinion re: numbers if the car hits the track 25-35 times a season?

I figured most of my driving with this car is at the track (or things like the Smokies rally). Otherwise, I'm not taking it out for a 'night on the town'. And certainly not to appointments. I will take it out on the rural roads around me for drives from time to time.

And all the track days I've been to require numbers. And I'm not a fan of the temp numbers on a car that I'm pushing to the limits on the track.

So this is where my head is on the topic.

Thanks Peter. I see your point.

The only thing here....I did this design already. Except for the side stripe.

The other thing (FOR ALL TO NOTE) - before the GT3 every car I had was low key. Plain paint colors, under the radar, 'clean'. All bad ***, just nothing visually 'wild' to compliment the wild/powerful nature of the car. So, the pendulum has swung!!

Phil,

For your intended use I think this will be perfect. You know that I love the number #77.
I use my track car the same way as you and have permanent nr #77 on it.
Enjoy it and have fun. You will be in a 991cup before you know it!

Phil it's your car and you obviously will be spending most of the time on the track with it so do the number's. After all, if ever a change of mind, they can be removed.

Phil I like them all. But my favorite is the orange one. You gave the idea with your old car to do put stripes on my GT3. Don't worry about what anyone says ,it is your car. Life is too short.
Enjoy

Go for it then. Heavy track. Sport road driving.

I would however not put the numbers on the hood. I think it takes away from the stripes.

Plus I rarely ever even see race cars (besides nascar) with a number on the hood. Pointless on the track.

Orange seems to be taking a lot of votes. I'm bias but I also think orange is racier looking than yellow.
