...so a couple years ago I had a local trophy shop engrave some "Pablo" signatures on 15 thou brass sheet.

Those are all gone. Here are the new ones, same 15 thou brass but engraved slightly deeper:

And we want those cars done by next Friday LOL. The engraving looks great.

A motor is only as fast as the chassis it's in.

Hey Pablo.  The engraved pieces are nifty for sure, but the way I see it, your work speaks for itself.  Having said that, I think a cool "maker's mark"...a symbol of some sort that is "YOURS" would be the way to go.  Dennis Sampson's and Tony P's both come to mind...so something with a "P" or maybe a sombrero  :)  N-E-Waze...build-on!
