A heavy, oblique sans built from sharp, angular shapes and mostly straight strokes. Letterforms lean forward with a pronounced rightward slant, using chamfered corners and wedge-like terminals that create a cut, machined feel. Counters are small and often rectangular, and several glyphs use simplified, geometric construction with minimal curves, giving the alphabet a tightly engineered rhythm. Spacing appears compact in running text, and the strong diagonals in letters like A, K, N, V, W, and Z reinforce a fast, directional texture.
Best suited to display settings where momentum and punch are desirable—sports identities, racing-themed graphics, esports and gaming titles, bold poster headlines, and attention-grabbing packaging callouts. It performs especially well in short phrases, logos, and large-scale typography where the angular details remain clear.
The overall tone is high-energy and competitive, suggesting speed, impact, and forward motion. Its edgy geometry and tight apertures read as contemporary and tech-driven, with a distinctly sporty, motorsport-like attitude.
The design appears intended to communicate speed and power through forward slant, sharp geometry, and condensed counters, prioritizing impact and a streamlined, machine-cut aesthetic over quiet readability.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, stylized skeleton, with single-storey forms and squared-off bowls that keep the set cohesive. Numerals follow the same angular logic, staying bold and blocky for strong scoreboard-style presence. The distinctive cut-ins and notches in several glyphs add visual bite but also increase density at smaller sizes.
