I love doing race car lettering.
Because I am a female, my business plan is to always wear my tightest shortest Daisy Duke coochie cutters and bend over a lot when lettering the cars.
And a white wife-beater with no bra adds to the attention.
Usually it's just me and the race car guy and his buddies.
I letter a late model for a case of beer and them allowing me to put my name on the car, real fancy. Make sure you learn to use as many special effects as you can with your new printer.
Race car guys love that.
Also buy lots of fluorescent vinyl, sure it fades fast but it's flashy.
The race guys' favorite font is usually Brush Script but I get a lot of use from Serpentine and even Comic Sans. Make sure you use all capital letters and spell everything right.
Get a tramp stamp tattoo with your business name on it so folks notice it when you are lettering their cars.
And make sure to charge as little as possible so you get a lot of work in.
As for the plywood sign, why buy that when you can get a sheet of MDF for $8 at Lowe's?
Sure the texture is a little tricky but nobody's gonna notice that from the stands.
You could also cut a lot of Peeing Calvin stickers of him urinating on rival racer's numbers. That will get you some quick sales.
Jill, I've never met you or talked to you, but you are now my hero.
:U Rock:
This was B-E-A-utiful.
