+1 on the day glow accent

Rattle cans all the way mate, but will use a compressor when we move to our new place.

 

Both cars are for drift.

 

The overall project's sponsors colours are (1) yellow and (2) grey/sky blue. My own companies colours are white and blue, so we'll cater for all.

 

The 18" Volks are all white.

 

Here's my vision for the decals ('Tic 1' the SWB zed is funded soley by myself but wearing the TDS project sponsors decals.....'TIC 2' is an S body funded by my company and both additional sponsors)

 

Both cars will be satin black based with white wheels and carbon bonnets etc

 

On both carbon bonnets is a large bulldog (in black and white)

 

 

 

written above the bulldog in US military stencils is 'TEAM DOG SOLDIERS' and below is 'ATTITUDE ABOVE DISABILITY'

 

the front bumper and rear bumpers will display 'TIC 1' or 'TIC 2'

 

*'TIC 2' the TEAM DOG SOLDIERS second car, will be based on an S body (PS13/S14) which will be converted for the disabled drivers (ex service men and women who have lost lower limbs). Several open days/BBQ's will be held throughout the latter part of the year, where we will identify 2 suitable individuals who will recieve one on one tuition from a professional driver. All going well, one or both drivers will be to a high enough standard and eligable to compete at the lower semi pro levels of BDC 2013 season, against able bodied drivers)

 

(I'll run a seperate thread for this but through recent confirmed sponsorship and support from wealthy petrolhead business associates, the TDS disabled drift car project can now go ahead)

 

*TDS is not charity based and is run soley on the generocity of business associates who want to personally 'give something back' to those injured

 

 

Rear 1/3 of the cars will feature a diagonal black and white union flag with half blind punisher skull in the centre (a few guys have seen the original arm patch) 'the full message' obviously won't be displayed on the car!

 

 

 

 

Mid 1/3 is sponsor (1)

 

 

 

 

Front 1/3 is Sponsor (2) *confirmed but due to this companies size there's a lot of paperwork to fill out before hand* so will announce following a subsequent meeting

 

 

along the skirts will run the TEAM DOG SOLDIERS with the 'O' in 'DOG' replaced with the bulldog emblem

 

 

I'm going to spend the next few days working on the photoshopped pics and will begin a complete project thread in order to explain all

looks Bad! in a good way. Mat black always reminds me of robocop or mad max

Liking it mate, I think its epic what you are doing for the injured troops, if you need/want any help give me a shout mate, very willing to help where I can.

Rgr, cheers bud I'll keep you posted

 

When 'TIC 2' is ready to roll and we've got an idea of who the driver/s are then we plan to get Soldier mag to run a feature on the project, but having chatted to one of the sponsors yesterday, they are keen to get this off the ground pretty sharpish

will be good publicity mate. Forces are high in demand, look at the amount of stuff top gear do etc.

I saw the episode of Top Gear where they featured the injured servicemen preparing for the Dakar Rally. Fantastic stuff but unfortunately there were only vacancies for a select few in the team. Whereas the TEAM DOG SOLDIERS project is open to all at the open days with the competetive driving being a seperate aspect but all part and parcel of the overall project.

Plus there are vast numbers of potential practice and open day venues at no cost.

Looks mental. I love it. so its never on the road just the track?

No, this one's still got a tax disc mate

No, this one's still got a tax disc mate

 

but will it be for the road after the tax. Im just thinking that the pigs might have something to say about the front cooler. possibly the mot??

Love the look but love the whole ethos behind the project more, Hats of to you fella. Looking forward to regular updates on how it all unfolds and progresses. If you accept smaller individual donations and have a 'just giving' site then link it up.

Very generous mate, but I'd rather any donations go straight to Help for Heroes, keeps it nice and simple that way (ie. my sponsors and I build it and pay for it/the guys drive it and break it/my sponsors and have it re-built it etc).

I had this exact conversation with my wife yesterday. I'll introduce the local Police to the car and make them aware of the reason behind it and if they have an issue with it or want it changing (ie. oil cooler as you say) then I can make the changes there and then.

MOT won't be an issue (he's a sub-sponsor!)

Just when i thought i was happy with my headlight panel i see yours!!

 

Can you tell me which one that is on yours mate.

 

 

Yes mate, it's a carbon fibre VIS Racing vented panel

Awesome zed :)
