Racing to Success
When 3ZERO3 Motorsports needed a sick wrap done for a Volkswagen GTI for the SCCA Pro Racing World Challenge Touring Car Championship, they called Soapoint Graphics. The race, which lets companies and pros prove their knowledge and skills on the track, took place in Ontario, Canada at the Mosport International Raceway. With renowned Robb Holland driving the 3ZERO3 sponsored car, he set record by turning the fastest lap ever recorded in track history and placed with a podium finish in the top 3. The high placing position was a true victory, with having the VW GTI totally torn apart, rebuilt, tested and back to the track within 27 days!
With only having 27 days to get the whole car completely ready for the race, it was definitely a crazy deal! We received the call that we needed to design, print and install a wrap for a race car within one week. We jumped at the challenge and got to work basing design parameters and size from email relayed dimensions, and internet sourced photos. 3ZERO3 and Soapoint Graphics worked together to nail down the final design and from there we went to print.
The install came down to the wire as the cars arrival date pushed back later and later. The car was still being prepped and tuned all weekend and we finally got it late Monday night. Soapoint dedicated installers wrapped into the twilight to make the Tuesday morning ship date.
It was a very exciting and fast process and everyone was super ecstatic in the end with the final product. Here at Soapoint we thrive on unique situations and are always up for the challenge. This race car was a quick turn around and took a commitment level that we uphold every day. Working overnight to get the car wrapped and shipped out was just another example of how we do it around here; we love your clients and the lasting relationships we create! Thanks to 3ZERO3 Motorsports for the opportunity and also check out their BLOG about the car, the race and the whole experience! To see more pics of the wrapped racer, check out our GALLERY.
