DSRA T-Shirts! Need design ideas....
by mrwillys
Posted: 02/04/2002 15:24 EST

O.K., this is getting serious. I've got a lead on reasonable T-shirts for DSRA. I need design input. Do we go with Lugnut the DSRA mascott, beer and dipstick in hand? Catchy phrase? Also, who's interested in buying one? I'd like to debut them at NSRA Nats East. For those who haven't seen the mascot yet, check out this link,

I'll update everyone when I know more......

Nah, another headache over here - no checking my fluid. I think the T-Shirt should feature an open car, no not neccesarily a bucket, but something OPEN, so we can see our favourite mascot, the stick, the beer, the American AND Canadian flag too as he's gone International

Go ahead and use it...that's why I put it up. I've got a higher resolution version of it too if you need it. I could probably come up with a clearer picture of LugNut too if I worked on it.

Does this earn me a charter membership in the DSRA?

Getting scary now. I have to agree, I think the Official Mascot should be in Denise's Big Olds, there's plenty of room in there for the necessary beers, flags and whatever. I do like the Dipstick too.

NO, NO, NO, no! The Dipstick mascot needs to be cruzn in a dipsticker's rod.

Big Olds has already graced the front of a t-shirt already. When the demise of Rodders Digest was forthcoming, Steve Hendrickson had t-shirts made with Big Olds on the front trying to get the last of the promotions out for all the sponsor of the project. He was kind enough to include a couple of these when I purchased the rod.

Big Olds has a huge trunk, although not a big as Debb's, and I'll be happy to cart around all the "stuff". Could even put tons of stuff in the backseat area cuz there's actually no seat in there right now and probley wont be till the interiors done. Or the dipstickers can bring milkcrates and I'll cart them around at the Nats! :)

I forwarded the design to a guy that NitroFC (Big Al) refered me to. Looks like small DSRA on left chest, and Lugnut on the back. I'll wait till he quotes me to see if we can do it.

As for showing, I'ld have to say that on the other thread, I officially withdrew my request to join,.... however... I did suggest that I become one of the official Dipstick photojournalist-type persons.(or camera person)or maybe an official "Friend", like Friends of Dipstickers dont let others drink..Ooops, I'm lost again.

If the Squirrel and the Dipstck are on the T-shirt I've got to have one! No, make that several.
Question, Does DSRA have regions? If so, who's in charge of the Western Region? I vote that if we do have regions the shirts need to have something to signify your region. Western Region, put a pair of Sunglasses on the Squirrel and place him on a beach. Eastern, put a tie on him, or plaid suspenders and a cap with ear flaps and place him with trees in the background or sky scrappers. LOL
We definatly need a picture of a Street Rod on it somewhere though.
