Not bad and what signmeup said. I would have preferred hotter colors instead of red white and blue in the name. oranges, reds and yellows. the font choice for the towns name is hard to read too.

It's better to have two hands than one glove.
As previously noted, don't stretch fonts. These are right on the edge of being unreadable. Also, the image of the grill is leaving the banner. It should be facing the other way, heading for the center of the banner.

the whole thing is looking squished. If those are custom wheels, they should have been drawn squashed down, not squashed via your program.

Way too cluttered. If I can't read it from the thumbnail it's probably not going to work as a banner. Open it up and my eyes don't know where to focus first. Colors, composition, typeface choice all need work.

Nice job on the grill artwork, however the clip art flames don't match the grill, would have been better with more realistic flames.

The black shadow is too dark, tires blend into shadow, a dark gray shadow with a soft edge would have been better.

Tires are stretched (like text), not round.

As mentioned, the stretched type is hard to read.

One more thing, the very thin light gray hair-line is to light and does nothing for the overall design.

I made some quick modifications to express my points, the second image, it still needs more work.
