I thought I would upload this graphic I did a long time ago. It was done originally for SCGT (Sports Car GT) Renegades website forum as their Logo, which is now gone. SCGT for those who don't know is a old racing sim.

I wish I still had the original PSD files, but I don't so if I do a new one I'll have to do it from scratch again.

Almost Everything was created from scratch on the original, including the helmet. The Lightning above the Helmet was from a download, then enhanced. The Lightning on and below helmet was done from scratch.

The new one would be: FFR Renegades

Something that could maybe be a group racing team, T-shirts, posters etc.

The inspiration was from AC/DC's Thunderstruck song.
I rewrote the lyrics to reflect racing, of course not in the actual song, just in writing. Would be cool if could get AC/DC to do a race version though.

The race version lyrics are below, word changes are in purple.

Ah crap can't post the videos here, sony content, so I will just do the links to the music videos.

Live version at Donnington Park I believe, notice the Dunlop Bridge in the background.

AC-DC Thunderstruck Lyrics

Race car version
(Thunder) (x10)

I was Caught

In the middle of a race track (Thunder)

I looked round

And I knew there was no turning back (Thunder)

My mind raced

And I thought what could I do (Thunder)

And I knew

There was no help, no help from you (Thunder)

Sound of the engines

Beatin' in my heart

The thunder of engines (it)

Tore me apart

You've been - thunderstruck

[Rode | Went] down the highway

Broke the limit, we hit the town

Went through to Texas, yeah Texas

And we had some fun

We met some racers

Some friends who gave a good time

Broke all the rules, played all the fools

Yeah, yeah, they, they, they blew our minds

I was shakin' at the knees

Could I race again please?

Yeah the ladies were too kind

You've been - thunderstruck, thunderstruck

Yeah yeah yeah, thunderstruck

Yeah

Oh, thunderstruck, yeah

Now we're shaking at the knees

Could I race again please?

Thunderstruck, thunderstruck

Yeah yeah yeah, thunderstruck

Thunderstruck, yeah, yeah, yeah

Said yeah, it's alright

We're doing fine

Yeah, it's alright

We're doing fine

(So fine)

Thunderstruck, yeah, yeah, yeah,

Thunderstruck, thunderstruck, thunderstruck

Whoa baby, baby, thunderstruck

You've been thunderstruck, thunderstruck

Thunderstruck, thunderstruck

You've been thunderstruck

Enjoy!

Ok what happened to my graphics I uploaded, it's gone, not even in my attachments section.

Ok this is really frustrating, Webshots used to let you upload the pictures in full size, but now only a thumb and up to 600px. Looks like time to find another place to upload photos to.....arrrhhhh.

I guess this will have to do for now.
