A heavy, right-slanted display sans with tightly packed, condensed proportions and emphatic vertical stress. Strokes show pronounced contrast, with thick stems and sharper, tapered joins that create wedge-like terminals and occasional cut-in notches reminiscent of ink traps. Counters are narrow and often rounded-rectangular, while corners alternate between chamfered and slightly curved for a mechanical, engineered rhythm. The overall silhouette is tall and compact, with strong diagonals and brisk spacing that keeps lines feeling dense and fast.
Best used at large sizes where its contrast and narrow counters can remain clear. It excels in headlines, posters, sports and motorsport-style branding, energetic campaigns, and bold packaging or apparel graphics where a compact, high-impact word shape is desirable.
The font conveys speed and impact, combining a bold, competitive energy with a distinctly retro, poster-like attitude. Its slanted stance and compressed forms read as assertive and kinetic, well suited to messaging that aims to feel powerful, urgent, or performance-driven.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch in limited horizontal space, pairing a slanted, forward-driving stance with contrasted strokes to heighten drama and visibility. Its engineered cuts and tight proportions suggest a goal of creating a rugged, speed-inflected display voice for branding and promotional typography.
Uppercase forms emphasize uniform, vertical columns and tight apertures, while lowercase introduces more idiosyncratic shapes that reinforce a sporty, headline-oriented voice rather than a text-first one. Numerals follow the same condensed, high-impact construction, keeping a consistent rhythm for scoreboard-like settings.
