Some of the cars aren't running the windshield banner. Was it optional?

I know the last thing that Jimi and the people who run that series are thinking about is decals, but I think a little more thought should go into them. That strip of contingency sponsors has always bothered me. All of the contingency decals should be die cut and individual like every other form of "racing". All that blank white background looks odd on any car but a white one.

The main search for a Ultimate Street car logo on the doors looks fine, it looks like someone spent some time on that one and it has some style.

The windshield banner has always looked out of place to me with the white background also. If it was diecut vinyl similar to what they give you on the hotrod power tour or street machine nationals it would look so much cleaner. Or if it was black with Optima and Advanced Auto Parts logos and was designed to be trimmed to fit the full width of the windshield it would look a lot better, similar to the Pirelli World Challenge Windshield banner.

Just my opinion. I spent quite a few years putting decals on racecars and checking out other cars and the overall package that USCA participants are forced to run just looks a bit off to me. No offense to anyone at the USCA, just constructive criticism. Maybe other people like it the way it is. I think it should look more badass to fit the cars that are running the series. Trim the fat and get rid of all that extra white background.
