Designing The World's Fastest...

In 2007 I worked with Evernham Motorsports to crea

In 2007 I worked with Evernham Motorsports to create a stylized team helmet design. Evernham’s idea was to establish a consistent design foundation for each driver helmet with the Evernham “E”, and the remaining sections of the helmet would be customizable by the driver. These images are a few examples I submitted for this program. The Red and Black areas of the helmet (sides and chin area) are the standardized elements and the gray textures on the top, lower sides and back were open for the driver to customize. Design #3b was chosen as the team style that year. A little NASCAR trivia… Elliott Sadler’s ‘signature’ design element for his helmets was the forward pointing arrow on the top. On Sadler’s actual helmet, he chose to use a hunting camo texture for his personal touch. I found a few photos on Gettyimages of Sadler with his helmet (three of the photos were taken by Jason Smith and Todd Warshaw). The last slide was his special Autism foundation helmet painted by @indocil (Nice work)! I’m not sure if Indocil Art painted all the Evernham Driver helmets that year, so if you’re a helmet artist that created something for the team that year leave a comment below, I’d love to give you some credit.

This is a special tribute metal hood design I created for Bobby Labonte and Interstate Batteries in 2005. A company named HiREV commissioned me to produce many of their custom collectibles, such as wall-mount tribute hoods like this.

Here is a design I created in 2007 for Front Row Joe (Nemechek) when he raced for Ginn Racing. I re-created this Haier Chevy by keeping all the art as authentic to 2007 as possible, using my original design files, only putting the design on this year’s Cup Series body style… along with the current style of glass treatment. On the last two slides you can see the original car mockups I used in 2007. The actual car ran with a COT body but I created the design before the COT came out… that’s why the template uses the previous Gen body style.

Happy #MarkMartinMonday I can’t tell you exactly

Happy #MarkMartinMonday I can’t tell you exactly why I’ve been fortunate enough to design so many cars and shirts for the legendary Mark Martin… over several years and with different race teams @valvoline @roushfenway @pfizerinc MB2, Ginn, DEI, ARMY,etc… but looking back I’m extremely thankful. You may not know this about me, but I have never really promoted myself as a designer. For the most part everything that I’ve had the privilege to design over my career has just come my way… and yes, I’m still taking calls! I’ve only actively started revealing my design portfolio on Instagram a year and a half ago. I’ve enjoyed flying below the radar most of my career and I’ve seen a lot of changes over the years… so one change for me has been to connect directly with you on social media. I hope you enjoy the ‘reveals’ as much as I’ve enjoyed posting them! 👊
Mark Martin raced this car at Daytona in July 2007. I re-created this car by keeping all the art as authentic to 2007 as possible, using my original design files, only putting the design on this year’s Cup Series body style… along with the current style of glass treatment. On the last slide you can see the original car mockup I used in 2007.

Rusty Wallace has a record six Food City 500 wins.

Rusty Wallace has a record six Food City 500 wins. For the Bristol race today I opened up my 2006 archives and brought out this special livery. This car design was part of a partnership with Rusty Wallace, Checkers/Rally’s and Birchwood burgers who had the officially licensed NASCAR Burger in 2006. Bristol Motor Speedway’s official commemorative virtual program cover for the Food City Supermarket Heroes 500 is a tribute to Rusty’s wins.

Thank you to all the designers out there that are giving their time and talents to support local small businesses!

NEXT GEN! Do you enjoy seeing a design come to life… from sketch to the finished piece? It’d be too long to show the entire process but the beginning sketch is the best part anyway. I got a little inspiration from Boris over at @joegibbsracing to create a iPad sketch, and the “GEN 7” theme idea from @michaellcarey’s last Twitter Showcase… nice work out there designers! I don’t know about you, but I’m excited to see those new wheels! I wanted the final image to have a little vintage NASCAR Tee feel 👀 … Crank up the volume and enjoy!

Thank you to all the veterans who serve and have served our country on this Memorial Day. Today’s post is a combo tribute to my dad who was a veteran and served in the US Marine Corps and Richard Petty motorsports when they ran the Kroger/Coca-Cola 43 Chevy in the 2018 Coca-Cola 600 during Bubba Wallace’s rookie year.

My Dad spent some time in the Food Service Course in his early days as a Marine (second slide middle front)… and he exercised his love for cooking his entire life, especially around the grill. The third slide pretty much encapsulates his two passions.

My Dad passed away in March of 2018… later that same year I designed this Red White and Barbecue car for the Charlotte Memorial Day race.

I re-created this car by keeping all the art as authentic to 2018 as possible, using my original design files, only putting the design on this year’s Cup Series body style. However you’ll notice I did add the current style of glass treatment. On the last slide you can see the original car mockup I used in 2018.

Salute to all those who serve or have served in our armed forces this weekend! 🇺🇸 On Memorial Day weekend In 2008 Kasey Kahne won the longest endurance race of the year… the Coca-cola 600. During that time I worked with Gillett Evernham Motorsports in creating various helmets and uniforms for the team. These slides show the mockups I used for designing. The last slide is a photo of Kahne celebrating after the race where you can see him in the finished product.

DESIGN CHALLENGE, let’s support our local small businesses to make this a faster economic recovery (Details below)… but first let me tell you about Moosehead Grill. Moosehead is locally owned, and has been in business for over 20 years. They serve award winning wings and everything else on the menu is stellar! Since we can’t go to the next two Charlotte races, let’s help support Moosehead so they can have a strong rebound. As of today in NC some of the restrictions for restaurants are being lifted and they can start serving in dining areas with limited capacity. So, grab some take out at Moosehead Grill or dine-in and watch the races with some excellent tailgating grub… this is their Instagram account @mooseheadclt
Fellow designers, this is my challenge to you… let’s help out with this economic recovery and use our talents and skills to support local small businesses! Our local small businesses might not be able to sponsor a race car on the track, but let’s give them an extra marketing boost and design a custom livery for them and post it on your social media accounts! Restaurant, Landscaper, HVAC company… pick your small business. Use the hashtag #RaceToSupportSmall and #SupportSmall with your post.

In May of 2012 Aric Almirola raced the #43 GRAVELY machine at the Darlington Bojangles Southern 500. Gravely has been around since 1916 but this was their first appearance in NASCAR, teaming up with Richard Petty Motorsports. Aric finished 19th in that race.

I re-created this car by keeping all the art as authentic to 2012 as possible, using my original design files, only putting the design on this year’s Cup Series body style… Petty/Chevy. However you’ll notice I did add the current style of glass treatment. On the last slide you can see the original car mockup I used in 2012.

Happy birthday Tony Stewart 🎂 (Post 2 of 2) For

Happy birthday Tony Stewart 🎂 (Post 2 of 2) For Tony’s birthday I decided to open up the 2006 archives and do a little Six Flags celebration! This is a one-off special paint scheme Tony ran at the Monster Mile. Miles got the best of this car during that race so that’s why I included the visual on the second slide. I illustrated all the roller coaster tracks that wrap around this car too… have I ever mentioned that I like doing illustrations like that 😀. Also you can see a review of this die cast on @buschwhacker_reviews YouTube channel. One thing I noticed; it doesn’t look like the die cast has the red tint going over the top of the car 🤔. I re-created this car by keeping all the art as authentic to 2006 as possible, using my original design files, only putting the design on this year’s Cup Series body style along with the glass treatment. In 2006 Tony raced a JGR Chevy so I decided to keep this design on a Chevy. On the last slide you can see the original template I used in 2006.
