BDC / BDC Sponsor Sticker locations - Drifting forum

LUFFY · 19-12-2007, 21:27

Just a quickie and not to sound pushy at all but do you guys know what stickers and where they are going to be placed on the cars.

Reason for asking is a few mates/companies are helping me out with a few bits and pieces so i said i would chuck their name on the car to return the favour.

I presume there will be the usual Sunscreen Banners and Number boards on the doors but are there any other stickers to be placed elsewhere.

Cheers

Also very intrested in this but didnt want to be the 1st to post

Iv left the windscreen as i just assumed thats standard placing but i really need to know what space is going to be left for champion ship sponsors, i think iv got the rear spats and roof left

LUFFY · 19-12-2007, 21:51

I thought being the newbie id go straight in for the kill!!

BDC · 19-12-2007, 23:32

Full details will be released soon.

We will be using door cards for numbers, we will be providing sun strips and we advice you to keep your front wings clear of any stickers/art work etc.

We will also be asking drivers to have their full name on the rear side windows, minimum height of 50mm, if a car doesn't have rear side windows (Rx7 for example) the name must be placed as near to the window as possible.

I repeat, full details will follow.

Many thanks

The BDC team.

FlikstRR · 19-12-2007, 23:36

cool, thx for the response.

LUFFY · 20-12-2007, 08:16

Cheers Guys, i was going to place mine on the rear qtrs anyway so sounds like should be ok!

Polo · 20-12-2007, 09:26

My front wings have gone to a sponsor, any chance of a compimise? Pm me please.

Have to cover my splat thingy with a number

MJG · 20-12-2007, 09:46

Unlucky. Haha.

I asked this in one of the other threads but it must've got swallowed up by other questions and never answered.

Good Job I'm not competing in BDC, I'd never fit Cassian Jeremiah Dominic Carstares Ezekiel Marshall Watkins The 3rd Esquire on that tiny little quarterlight window in those size letters...

Pah, you give up to easily

dannyboyS14a · 20-12-2007, 11:47

One question, do you get one set of stickers for the whole season? or per round?

Just wondered because its my daily driver too and wondered if they can be taken off after every event.

MJG · 20-12-2007, 11:58

Normally they are provided at the start, once, but if you paid extra I'm sure they would provide you a season's set. What's wrong with having BDC livery on your car anyway? It's for a legitimate race series so it's not like you are putting fake sponsor decals on the car.

dannyboyS14a · 20-12-2007, 12:05

I guess its all the more advertising for the event and the sport too.

Guess i didn't think of the bigger picture! lol

cookwibble · 20-12-2007, 12:20

cool, my car is gonna look rediculus i think. good. all or nothing.

Please dont take this the wrong way as its not meant in the way it might sound.

Why should a compramise be made for you? If a series requires stickers to be placed in certain places then all people should adhere to it.

10000000000 million sponsors or none, it shouldnt matter.

Captain Muppet · 20-12-2007, 16:23

I'll have to sand down my carbon front wings to get my sponsors stickers off.

I don't mind a bit of effort for the BDC.

Worth a try init

+ im getting £400 for that spot so its kind of means alot to me

DriftLexus · 20-12-2007, 16:29

it is worth a try, but the fact that in the rules and regs it did state that a press release would be made, about sticker placement should have been the pre warning you needed not to "promise" advertising space on the car.

you cant expect a compromise..a pre thought out format, is designed to give maximum publicity to the sponsors of the series, not the sponsor of the individual

i am also in the same boat...but im awaiting the final layout

Pikey · 20-12-2007, 16:31

Who's giving you people money, and why aren't I getting any?

If I do my own numbers on the doors will I still have to put your numbers over the top of them?

DriftLexus · 20-12-2007, 16:36

the best thing is to WAIT till BDC state the layout/format of any sponsor decals/series decals, this will include where or where not to place private sponsor decals and where and in what size the door numbers must be, as has already been stated the full name of the driver needs to be in the rear 1/4 window in a size of 50mm high each letter
