A compact, right-slanted sans with tightly compressed proportions and heavy, uniform strokes. Curves and counters lean toward rounded-rectangle geometry, giving letters a soft-edged, superelliptical feel even in straight-sided forms. Terminals are clean and blunt, with minimal modulation and a consistent, forward-leaning rhythm. The overall texture is dense and punchy, with small apertures and sturdy internal spaces that hold up well at display sizes.
Best used where impact and forward motion matter: headlines, posters, sports or motorsport-themed branding, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for compact logotypes and wordmarks that need a condensed footprint. For extended text, it performs more comfortably in short bursts such as captions, labels, or UI accents where the dense texture remains controlled.
The font reads fast and energetic, combining a streamlined, engineered look with a distinctly retro athletic flavor. Its italic angle and condensed build create a sense of motion and urgency, while the rounded corners keep the tone friendly rather than severe. The result feels confident and attention-grabbing, suited to bold, headline-driven messaging.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in limited horizontal space, pairing a strong oblique stance with rounded-rectangle construction for a modernized retro feel. The emphasis is on bold, kinetic display typography that stays cohesive across letters and figures while retaining a smooth, approachable finish.
Numerals follow the same condensed, rounded-rectangle logic and maintain strong consistency with the letters, creating an even typographic color in mixed alphanumeric settings. The narrow set width and tight counters can feel dense in longer lines, so spacing and size choices will strongly influence readability.
