I’m finally back to playing Forza after a 4 year break, and I’ve jumped straight back into painting liveries for the various different series I help organise at EFM. Like the old days, sometimes a series is created off the back of me making a livery and having no use for it…
ETCC
These are cars for the Everfree Touring Car Championship. Some of these are competitors’ cars, others were made for promotional material, or just because I was bored.
#00 Latifs Honda Civic (Zengo) WTCC - This is one of the series promo cars. It’s a reinvigoration of a livery I did back on FM6.
Storefront: Not yet
#00 Motul BMW 125i - Another ETCC promo car. I’m not normally one for an asymmetrical livery, but I’ll do one occasionally.
Storefront: Yes
#13 Gearbox Motorsport Mercedes A45 TCR - A fellow ETCC competitor requested this off me for his entry. He dropped out of the series before it started, but another driver has chosen to run the car instead.
Storefront: Yes, as both #13 and #52
#23 Project 11 Competition Audi RS3 TCR - My own ETCC entry, actually. It’s yellow. It was nearly black. But it isn’t, it’s yellow.
Storefront: Yes
#47 SR Racing Audi S3 TCR - A request from another ETCC for the livery for his competition car. He said he wanted green. He got green.
Storefront: Yes
#69 TI Motorsport BMW 125i - Yet another ETCC competitor’s competition car. He wanted to be sponsored by whoever the UK’s worst broadband provider was, so a quick Google gave me the answer.
Storefront: Yes
#99 Team Red Bull Honda Civic WTCC (Castrol) - This was a request from another ETCC competitor, this being his competition car.
Storefront: Yes
EGTX
EGTX was our main focus at EFM back in the day. It’s been a while, but we toyed with bringing it back. So far just a few promo liveries have been produced, as we haven’t confirmed a start date yet. I mean, I haven’t even decided which style of number board I prefer, so all these cars are technically WIPs until I do…
#1 GAPP Aston Vantage GT3 - This will probably be my entry, we’ll see by the time the series happens.
Storefront: Nope.
#23 Bimmerworld M8 GTE - Yeah, I went through a period of painting Bimmerworld on everything on FM6 and FH3, so my first paint on FM7 was this, obviously.
Storefront: Yes
#67 Advan Yokohama BMW M6 GTE - Very much still a WIP. It’s like a throwback to two of the different liveries on the ALMS M3 GTR.
#91 CRT Red Bull Porsche 911 (991) RSR - A tribute to a friend that I teamed up with back in the old days. The liveries of the two teams he used to regular for in various series, mixed together, basically. Also, it’s colourflip blue/purple.
Storefront: Not yet
NASS
North American Super Stock, as we’re calling it, is obviously going to be some sort of NASCAR inspired series. I haven’t created a logo, or decided on whether we’ll have a mandatory sticker package yet, but I think I prefer the cars without to be honest.
#23 Tire Rack Chevy SS
Storefront: No
#23 Tire Rack Chevy SS (Veteran’s Day Version)
Storefront: No
ETCC Super 90
ETCC Super 90 is a proposed series inspired by the old Group A and Super Touring stuff from the late 80’s/early 90’s
#69 TI Motorsport BMW E30 M3 - I just fancied doing a 90’s version of the ETCC livery, honestly. The guy likes it, so he’ll probably end up using it if the series happens.
Storefront: Not yet
Sprint Challenge
This is another series being talked about, using the Sport Compact homologation.
#23 Mazda RX8 - I wanted to do something that look more grassroots, with no real main sponsor, but still looked ok, and this is what I came up with.
Storefront: No, it’s not quite finished. I still need to decide on the design for the actual number boards for the series.
Other
Other random paints I’ve done, usually for nothing in particular.
It’s a Cusco Civic EP3 Type-R. That’s about it. I like it.
Storefront: Yes
#48 Lunar Racing Ford Focus RX - At EFM, we have a Dutch guy who always had his cars sponsored by this Dutch low-budget energy drink, and he was a big fan of the Ford Focus. This is a homage to him.
Storefront: Not yet
On My Workbench
Here are a few of the things I’m working on at the minute. Whether I’ll finish them or how much they change is anyone’s guess.
My most recent one, another promo car for ETCC Super 90. Will probably end up as 7-Eleven, but we’ll see.
Another one for ETCC Super 90. At the minute it’s looking very 80’s Renault F1, but I don’t know if that’s where I’ll go with it.
This is a Lotus Elise GT1 for EGTX '95. It’s kinda JPS, kinda Petronas, and very not finished.
