We have enough money in the prize fund from last year, along with a little bit left over from the previous year,

that we can:

 

1) give plaques down to at least 15th place, in each class,(with bigger ones for the top 3)

2) give plaques to the top 3, and get T-shirts for all the guys who have attended at least half the races

 

If you qualify for an award, please respond on your preference in this thread. 

 

Feel free to post for friends / sons that qualify, that might not post much, or are not Slotblog members.

FWIW, I like option 2 with the Can-am champ passing on his 1st place plaque, because he's not a "plaque guy".

I like option 2 myself. I also agree with KVP you can't wear a plaque.

Talked to Dave G. from Thazer and he's a #2 guy.

 

So shirts it will be.

 

Next question.

Design and color.

 

An F1 car and light grey is out.

 

I'm not a Black fan because I got 8 million Black T-shirts, so my vote is for a Can-Am car and a Dark Grey.

 

Please chime in with idea's for colors, including if you prefer Black.

 

Also any other reasonable idea's  for a design other than a Can-Am.

 

I.E. - Please, nothing silly like a caricature of KVP cleaning out Bernie's ear canal with his macroglossia.

I would take any shirt that is yellow or orange or red in color...

 

I have way to many black t-shirts now - I defiantly don't want my more.

I would like to see maybe a brighter color shirt with black lettering. Yellow, Green, Blue. Just something a bit different. Like the Can-Am idea as well Mike.

Below is the final color and artwork on the 2013-2014 IRRL shirts.
 
Super-thanks to Ralph Thorne for sticking with this until he could find the image I wanted.
 
If you made at least half the races, make sure I get the size you need immediately.
 
If not, I'll be guessing.
 
I'll also be getting some extra's in the common sizes.
