OK, here's another version of the front, simpler... made me think about making a Superman logo shirt ,
but make the shape a rotor and put an 8 in the middle....
if only there were enough 8 owners in the world for me to make a bunch of different shirts, lol.

I'm going to start a list of people saying they'll buy one, and the size:

1. DAGGOTH - 1 XXL

Please post a reply if you're seriously interested. I'm not sure what the shirts are going to sell for yet, but the damn shipping is like $5-6 so that doesn't help. I'll probably sell them for $15 at the DGRR.... so probably $20 shipped, unless I print a ton of shirts, but so far on here only about 10 people interested.... small print runs make expensive shirts

If it's a pre shrunk quality shirt I'll take two Mediums. Will you offer it in different colors? I'd like a white or a red one. Seems al the 8 shirts are black and its too hot here for black in teh summer.

Yeah, pre-shrunk, combed cotton... nicer feel than a plain old Hanes Beefy T or any of that. The sizing is normal, not slim-fit or any of that. They're also tagless, but they probably won't have anything printed where the label would be because I don't have my own label or brand, and that would just be an extra print charge... Unless the guys that are gonna print them for me feel like being nice.

and I kind of need to figure out where to keep the black and where to lose it, if that makes sense.... I'll try to post an image to show what I mean.....

sorry, i said i would buy it. but i forgot there is a going to be a car on the back of the shirt.

3d will there be a chance in the future that you will be making shirts with just the rotoary emblem on the front? i love the front, just not a fan of having a picture of a car as a tshirt. i think your idea is awesome , just not my sytle.

I'll just stick with black for this time around. If this works out well and I don't lose money, I'll try to make some more rotorhead shirts later and maybe eventually put up a web site or something... for now I'm just testing the waters

1. DAGGOTH - 1 XXL
2. Rotr8 -1 M
3. DarkLord7854 - 1 L
4. RockTown07 - 1 M
5. 9krpmrx8 - 2 M
6. RX8speeddmon - 1 XL, 1 L
7. 3DZukini - 2 XL ;P
8. WhiteSnowflake8 - 1 M?
9. Jedi54 - 1 XL

I think I'll have to print at least 36 to make the printer happy, hopefully I can sell those. I'm not hoping to get rich or anything, maybe make some money to help pay for my gas down to DGRR (1600 miles roundtrip!)

Black is okay, its just that all my rotary t shirts are black. My name is on the list. Grey would look nice too and the gauges would show up.

I might print some with just the front this time around since there will be a lot more 7 owners at the meet than 8 owners... wish I had time to make a back with a FD

Probably not this time around, if this whole t-shirts on the side deal works for me and doesn't take up too much family time, I might make more shirts in the future... this was more or less just a test to see if it's worth it for me, and to help pay for my trip to DGRR

if he wnt with a light color that means he would have to pay more for printing the black inked areas of the design, this way he can maek them with 1 less screen, let this be the way it is for now,,, there will be more...

Grey might work, but it would also add another ink color for the black parts of the art... I'll think about it but I'm kinda running out of time to get these done by next week.... my fault for slackin'
