NEW t-shirt art, opinions?

[XcYZ]

Here's the new t-shirt design that I had Don Vierstra work up. I never intended on using my own car for the shirt, I think that comes off as being on the arrogant side. But, since I was paying to have the artwork done, I figured it made sense that I'd use my own car. I think that's what anyone would do, really. I've talked to Jody and I think it would be cool to do his car next... Maybe his car with with a turbo in the background? And then maybe another car from our site down the road? It could turn into a whole series of limited edition/limited run member's rides t-shirts.

And I really need to point out the patience that Don has had with me while working on this. I looked back, and to date, our correspondence has a total of 74 e-mails. He's been great to work with. :thumbsup:

Here's the artwork and what it would look like on a t-shirt. What do you guys think? I was given the green light at Auto Meter to use their logo on the shirt, I thought that was really cool.

I love the one with the black shirt. Sign me up for a large :thumbsup:

[jack67rs]

Black is really cool!!

[Autokraft]

Yeah Scott that kicks ass. (except the tach should be pegged at 8500):lol:

I'll be havin one of those

[radrambler]

yeah scott

...mine old ones need to be retired..
hell,just put your full name under the picture of your car .in bold letters..
if your gonna do some self promotion,might as well go all the way :rofl: .

no really ,looks great...whats the possible trigger date on them.
ill buy..

[V8TV]

That is very cool looking. Too often car-related tee shirts bend towards the trashy side, but this is all class. Well done!

[7TSS]

I like the black one also. Let us know when they're ready to go.

[72 RS/SS]

I have to agree, the black one is very cool - great job. Let us know when they will be available.

[Steve1968LS2]

It would be perfect if the logo was tilted ;)

I vote for a white or gray shirt.. Not a fan of black shirts, too hot.

[Spiffav8]

Looks great! :thumbsup: But I have enough black and white in my closet. Gray wold be nice.

[jeff hanson]

Looks good Scott. I have to agree on the Black, it definitely looks the best, hot or not. I don't know about the car though?? I mean, c'mon, a 69 Camaro, isn't that getting a little old?:rofl: Sign me up. XL.:thumbsup:

[awr68]

I love the new artwork!! Can't wait to fill the closet with them!! :thumbsup:

[Tom.A]

:cool: Looks nice. I vote for white but I will sport whatever color you choose.

[bigtyme1]

Looks great to me Scott. Gray sounds like a good option as well. I'll take a few when your ready. XL

[130fe]

Shirts look great, I would be in for couple of XL's when they are available. Probably black and grey. On a aside note, in the black one, is the gauge face going to be white (phantom series) or silver (correct for ultralite series)?

Here's what Steve is referring to:

i like what you guys have come up with and im also a grey or white shirt guy.
i would buy to promote this site with what you have now but
i have questions..i keep looking at the design .it almost looks like your the guage company trying to promote autometer
..why is the guage so big in relation to the car .it could be ghosted in behind the car and that would kinda help ..and to promote lateral-g the lettering should be larger in relation to the car and guage. just my opinion and i know
im just trying to help...

radrambler

[mdprovee]

I like the grey idea too. I'd be in for a couple.

[nvawgn]

looks good but maybe try a carbon fiber gauge face or black or silver or some other color.

[XcYZ]

Looks like a grey/heather t-shirt would have the broadest appeal. I'll talk to Don about making the gauge face silver.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the input. :cheers:

[V8TV]

I like black shirts 'cause they don't get destroyed when you work on the car!

[trapin]

Would that design be on the front of the shirt or on the back?

If it's on the front I'll take a white and a black.

Those big designs on the back of a shirt are like solar panels to a big guy like me. LOL!!!

[buickfunnycar.com]

Like the new design Scott,black shirt looks killer to me...nothing more classic than black.:yes:

[HRBS]

I cant believe you used you own car you arrogant jerk !
BTW.. I'll take a few in white :lol:

[Tom.A]

Like I said before the art work looks great and I will buy what ever color you choose. But I still think a white shirt with the url on back (in blue) and small brake caliper logo on left for the front would look classy and simple. Big art work on the front is kinda too nascar or outlaws type of shirt in my opinion. I might be in the minority in my thoughts though.

[ironworks]

I agree tom, It kinda looks like it needs to lightning bolt print to go all around the shirt like a nascar shirt. It is to busy for my taste.

How about the side profile of the car, with lat g above it across the chest.

Rodger

[Jr]

How about a simple lateral-g.net shirt? I would like a gray shirt with the Lateral-g.net(logo) on the left hand side...please.

[XcYZ]

I cant believe you used you own car you arrogant jerk !
BTW.. I'll take a few in white :lol:

:D

I agree, Tom. The art will be on the back and the front will be really simple. :thumbsup:

[Roberts68]

I like it. I'm in for a white (okay, maybe grey... if it has to be) one too as even though I can appreciate the black not showing filth because none of us can stay outta the engine compartment etc...

Black is just too hot when you are trying to look...and be Cool

[zbugger]

I like the artwork, but I'm just wondering what it would look like wet on a hot chick with big boobs.....









Sorry Theresa. I'm a guy. What can I say?

[trapin]

I prefer the logo on back too but man you get out in the sun with that big silk screen on the back and it's not long before I need to take a shower. LOL!!!

I'll have to wait and see the final product. Maybe it won't be that big on the back. My old Lat-G shirt ended up as a nighty for my Wife.

....she did look pretty hot in it though I'll have to admit. :unibrow:

[Nate Hanson]

I'd take a few of the black ones, when they come available.

[RussMS]

I love the checkered flag look. Also casting a vote for a grey one :thumbsup:

[jannes_z-28]

Looks great, except that I think that you should replace the AutoMeter logos with Lateral-G instead.

Jan

[tones2SS]

I'd get a couple of shirts.
A black & heather grey. COOL LOOKING DESIGNS!!!:thumbsup:

[Rick Dorion]

I like it, Scott. Also, the idea of a series. But, you need a vert at some point!

I would get a black T since it holds up better working in the garage :)

[bigtyme1]

I Agree Rick,By the way how is the vert?

I'm fine with Gray, Black, or White I know I'll end up wearing them in the shop so black and gray don't show the dirt as much.

Vert is great. This weather has me out in it all the time. All mechanicals done. Looks like I need to learn some body work skills for this winter!

Well at least your having fun with it, I'm still in pieces at this point. Hope to see paint soon. Send me some picks.

[Stang's Bane]

I like the design, just don't care for the car:_paranoid

:lol: :hail: :hail: :hail:

[Smack_talker]

I like the black one, it really pops. The grey would be good also. Scott, what about a smaller lat-g over the breast in front and the big artwort on the back? I like those kinda shirts. Either way let us know when available and sign me up for a XL.:thumbsup:

[lhkustoms]

Love the design when can we order:thumbsup:

[DVierstra]

lhkustoms Love the design when can we order

Good question. Haven't had the go ahead for separating the design. Thanks for all the comments everyone! I like the checkered flag design also. It took many, many revisions to get to this point. :cheers:

[XcYZ]

Hopefully soon. I've been swamped this week. I'll be bugging Don early this week and getting it finished up.

[bigtyme1]

Scott, will these be ready for SEMA?

[brans72]

why does it have to be a camaro???? always hating on the chevelles!

Brandon

[Patrick]

BLACK for me...also try to do some long sleeves as well.

[hyperz69]

sweet looking artwork, being a new member i,ll retire my protouring shirts for the real things ,i,ll take on of each. great job and great site, hyperz mike.:wow:

[MnHotRod]

Saw some of the designs and the latest per your first post. Love that one. Told Don I had to have one. These available yet?

[68LS1]

Like it a lot, especially liking the black version. :yes:

Would like to see a version with the gauge face as a slightly smaller "background" item maybe with a transparency layer, and with the bottom of lateral-g logo running over the of the gauge image from 3,500 to 8,000 on gauge.

[2L8IWON]

I'm a newb but would really like one of these shirts, even though it has a Chevy on it. :captain:
