    FFR Renegades

    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.
