A heavily slanted, compact display sans built from rounded-rectangle / superellipse shapes and dense, ink-rich strokes. The letterforms are broad and squat with tight counters, softened corners, and a consistent right-leaning motion. Many glyphs feature small internal cut-ins and notches (especially in bowls and joins), creating a slightly stenciled, high-impact texture without introducing true serifs. Overall spacing and rhythm read as solid and chunky, with simplified geometry and minimal detailing intended for strong headline presence.
Best suited to headlines, posters, title cards, sports or racing-themed branding, and bold logo wordmarks where its slanted, chunky silhouettes can carry the composition. It also works for short, high-contrast messaging on packaging or merch, but is less appropriate for long-form text due to its dense counters and strong stylistic texture.
The tone is fast, tough, and assertive—closer to motorsport, action, and athletic branding than to neutral editorial typography. Its rounded corners keep the aggression friendly enough for entertainment and youth-oriented contexts, while the slant and cut-ins add a sense of motion and urgency.
Designed to deliver maximum visual impact with a forward-leaning stance and rounded, geometric construction, while adding recognizable personality through consistent notches and cut-ins. The emphasis appears to be on motion, strength, and immediacy for display-driven typography.
Round letters like O/C/G and numerals lean toward squarish, rounded forms with small apertures, which can reduce legibility at very small sizes but increases impact at large sizes. The distinctive cut-ins across multiple glyphs create a cohesive, signature texture that reads especially well in all-caps settings.
