A heavy, right-leaning display face built from chunky, rounded-rectangle forms and sharp wedge terminals. The glyphs use extended horizontal strokes and flattened curves, with frequent cut-ins and notches that create an ink-trap-like, stencil-adjacent rhythm. Counters tend to be compact and geometric (notably in O/a/e), and many letters sit on pronounced, extended bases that read like underlines or skis, giving the line a continuous, low-slung silhouette. Figures are similarly wide and stylized, with squared bowls and strong horizontals that echo the alphabet’s forward-tilted momentum.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, packaging callouts, esports or motorsport-inspired branding, and game or arcade-style titling. It can work in punchy subheads or large labels where its underlined baseline motif has room to breathe, but it’s less appropriate for long-form reading.
The overall tone is energetic and mischievous—part racing-era signage, part comic-tech futurism. Its exaggerated slant and long baselines suggest motion and attitude, while the quirky cutouts and asymmetric details add a one-off, experimental charm.
The design appears intended to communicate speed and boldness through a consistent forward slant, wide proportions, and a distinctive underlined/runner baseline motif. Decorative notches and compact counters add a wacky, experimental edge meant to stand out in display applications.
The extended lower strokes create strong horizontal banding in text, which can be a signature look but will dominate spacing in tighter layouts. Letterforms remain broadly recognizable, yet the decorative notches and low counters push it firmly into attention-grabbing display territory.
