During a recent top secret meeting of some of the top minds in the UK Club (and Richard and Baz were there too), the idea of decals for our Germany trip was discussed...

One person, (who shall remain nameless at this point, but I'm sure you can guess), suggested that we all put roundels on our doors, but personally I think this could be asking for trouble...

Anyone got any better ideas for a 'fun' UK Viper Club Theme that we can all do?

Just a thought...

What about the Pistonheads logo in black over the St, Georges flag ?
Maybe a Viper club - UK, line at the bottom ?

I refer you again to the Event Dates list at the top of the Viper Forum... Bookings for this event were closed a couple of months ago though I'm afraid.

Just a couple of small points, anything with an RAF type roundal will probably really piss off the Germans, who are our hosts, it may also make us arrestable under 'Public Order' type offences such as wearing the Nazi sign in the UK, offences likly to cause upset must exist in the whole of Europe.

Also we are the UK VCA not the English VCA so I think the White and Red cross is just going to make us look like a load of football supporters, which could also cause us some grief with the French and the Germans, that is if the average German knows what the English flag is.

Should there be any anti German type things at all then I will travel on my own.

ALL CARS WILL ALSO NEED FRONT PLATES IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ONE YOU WILL GET PULLED

The German Potitzie do not muck about !!!!

we are at the ring on the 31st August, just for the morning

I'm with Paul, deffo no RAF roundels etc, no wanting to stand out for the wrong reasons and leaving the cars out overnight, something tasteful yes im up for that, maybe a revival of the old 'SPEED TEAM' badge, user/nicknames,even sequenced numerals

I would prefer the Welsh Dragon, thank you very much. A rather elegant creature, distantly related to the Viper I believe.

Good point, wonder what Joel would like???

No I like the logo that Neil designed, lets keep it at that but with the speed team theme.

Perhaps Neil could post a grapic, if he still has it.

That does not mean that we are not going to Germany to kick some German butt on the track because that we are.

Sounds like a plan is a foot... Looking forward to seeing the graphic... If not, how about the old UK Viper Club flag, (Sneaky pete over a Union Jack) with some kind of UK Viper Club Speed team type theme?

And please rest assured that you won't need to travel alone Paul, there was definitely not any Anti-German, xenophobic, or racist comments made during the top secret meeting, and absolutely no thought other than that it would be good for us all to be 'wearing' a group badge on the cars. Hopefully that has clarified the context of my original post...

It was just a thought and would show that we are all together... (Not that 12 UK Vipers driving through Europe together would be likely to be seen in any other way I suppose, but you get the idea).

Really looking forward to it!! woohoo
