Dragonball 2012 - where to go?

[Tyson]

John, I've just been on the Castle Combe web site and Japfest is on the 12 of May 2012, which clashes with the dates we were thinking for our little trip.

 

Good find as Jap fest is probably the biggest meeting of the year bar suprapod would be a shame if we had to miss one or the other. Have we decided what route we are going to be taking yet?

[BOB B]

I always go to Japfest, starts the season off nicely, I would hate to miss it, especially the convoy. In those famous words "I like Japfest, But I also like Dragonball, but which one is best? there is only one way to find out.......... FIIIIGHT.

[Guigsy]

I got bored of shows. Same cars over and over. Yawn

If you had to choose, what would you rather do?

 

As Guigsy said, look at other cars or drive across some beautiful roads, white sandy beach, beautiful women, glorious sun & me (okay, maybe the last bit might put you off).

 

[BOB B]

I still like the whole meet at Reading, convoy down, then the hustle and bustle of the show, but Dragonball wins hands down, I would just prefer to have all my bits of cake and "eat em all".

Wouldn't we will!

 

I do agree though, this date may need to be re-evaluate!

[Branners]

date has moved to the 18th May now folks, subject to the usual getout clauses of something else being in the bloody way like Japfest.

 

So thats the 18th May now people...not the 11th.

 

And the stickers were made of static cling plastic for the windows, and sticky back for the doors.

[DodgyRog]

That's a shame, we won't be able to make it, flying to Florida on the 21st

Similar here, we're off to Vegas on the 3rd June.

Bit gutted, but understand the need to change it and to be honest it was always going to be a push to afford Florida for 3 weeks and the Dragonball so close

 

Hopefully be able to make Dragon13all

First ideas for white car graphics!

 

 

[Branners]

I'm liking the look of that, especially the big 12 on the side. For those not being fully stickered we could use the 12 with the Dragonball and url under the 2.

 

Need to find a sticker company that can do that design for a reasonable price.

[johnny g]

Could this be done on a white background to work on non-white cars?

[wile e coyote]

If ellis can send me the file ill speak to my local mr sticker, ill def go for that mate, what about the bonnet ? and something on the rear

[Branners]

At this point we arent sure how much it will cost. The plan was to sticker up 2 cars using club funds, and the 2 cars offered were white.

 

If the price is cheap enough we may be able to subsidise others running the same livery and then get it inverted for the dark cars.

 

I also think the big number 12 might be good if the whole livery costs too much.

[ellis]

I'll prep designs for roof, bonnet and rear as well, just wanted to gauge reactions before going further. I'll sort vector files Darren for spot on repro - these can be supplied at 50% size (as we do for any vehicle livery artwork) in EPS/AI or PDF format depending on who's producing the vinyls. More tomorrow.

[ellis]

Technically, yes, quite easily too. I'll mock one up tomorrow.

[wile e coyote]

ok mate , all that jargon went straight over my head mind

[ellis]

It'll make sense to Mr Sticker!

[wile e coyote]

cool

[Guigsy]

Me and my wife both prefer the top one. It's more obvious what it's for. Id probably leave that on my car for ages looks ace ESP if the bonnet was done too . Don't mind chipping in a bit with the cost if it's needed.

[Abz]

Ellis, you are freaking awesome! They both looked brilliant, but top gets the vote from us.

[SupraDan24]

Top one from me as well, the reasoning of 12 on the bottom one wouldnt be apparent to anyone but us imo.

[wile e coyote]

just a thought what about both of the stickers dif on each side

[Darron Q]

they both look the nuts

 

great work Ellis

 

Its gona be a another awesome trip
