Overdrive inspired NASCAR

I am a huge "left turn fanatic" as people like to tell me, and upon seeing this year's game design, it inspired me to paint a NASCAR in celebration of this years game. hope you like it!

Should have used blue or red instead of black on the car.

Re: Overdrive inspired NASCAR

Nice. What is that from? (I'm assuming a video game)
I might paint a plane (or two) for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 in an Overdrive theme... Just have to work around CAD for our team.

Re: Overdrive inspired NASCAR

I took the template from the Game "NASCAR Racing season 2003" and edited it with Photoshop

I've been playing that for a long time and when i saw yesterday's kickoff, i just felt like that car needed to be painted.

Meh, i wasnt going for a team designed car, even though i do have one that i made when we first started up 3 years ago...I really liked the concept of a FIRST themed NASCAR and I finally found a reason to Paint one

NASCAR is just too slow... A Champ Car at Fontana could average over 241mph... About 45mph faster than a Stock Car... And FIRST makes me think High Tech. Open Wheel cars with 2.65L Turbocharged V8's that make 750hp... Thats what this game makes me think... Except on a Milwaukee Mile level....
