Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series

[Nitro Dude]

The 2 worded Monster NASCAR was better. In advertising, the name matters alot. Starbucks makes millions, because it is a shorter name, as does apple

I must be way out in left field because I have never thought about the length of a name when I buy something. I wouldn't be surprised if Starbucks makes millions because a lot of people buy their over priced terrible tasting coffee because they think they look high class carrying a cup with the name Starbucks on it.jmo

...and by Phoenix we'll all be calling it the Monster Cup. And as always the cars will be "Cup cars".

Brevity is your friend.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

You'd be surprised how good the picture quality is on most smartphones.

Yes, I probably would be, but I don't have any reason to find out.

 

[Team Penske]

With the on track product Nascar routinely produces it may not be a bad thing and as long as they have paid for a ticket that is all that really matters. For whatever reason people don't fully engage in work or play anymore as the electronic device they have with them trumps everything. Go to a restaurant and see the couples and families individually hammering away on devices instead of speaking with each other or glance over a the cars you pass and you see the same thing.

You have to look at the bright side. While you may say something wrong no one is listening anyway.

I like the slant

I do too. I actually think Andy is technically correct according to current design standards, but my gut reaction is that I like the slant. I think it's the sense of motion that it creates, as without it the logo is too flat and static and like everything else out there at the moment.

Hey, if slanted is good enough for this logo, it's good enough for the rest of the sport.

 

[sdj]

This is OK with me. As long as they show up and race, they can call it what ever they want. I will still call it CUP.

 

[DanicaFreak]

I like it.

Its a "young" logo. Add this logo to scantily clad girls walking around the pits and drivers talking trash at one another 2017 could be interesting,.,...

Would monster care if drivers hate each other?
Would monster care if drivers punch each other?
Would monster care if the wives hate the monster girls?

Monster wants emotion in the sport. So does NBC.

 

[Kiante]

Instead of Falcon Punch, it will be Monster Energy Punch...

If anyone gets the reference.

I love reading this logo described with adjectives it would never occur to me to use. Modern, edgy, and now 'young'. What makes it 'young'? I'll avoid any comparisons to Fisher-Price products.

Monster is a young brand...the claws make it seem like you are watching adrenaline soaked junkies race around "motocross-esq" to me anyway

If NBC wants emotion they can scrap their race announcer line up.

Let the race dictate the tone, not Rick "WE HAVE PRAWBLEMS!" Allen.

NBC's announcers illicit emotion from the audience at home though

 

[Marcingak]

I think the new name and logo are terrible but I'm sure those overpaid marketers know better.

Not a fan of 2- yellow, 2 red, one blue

monster music

Get read for green window bars and green splitter accents in the chase

 

[DSquad48]

The NASCAR energy monster series cup is gonna be awesome

 

[gnomesayin]

To reiterate, I applaud the new NASCAR logo. I'll gush over how good it is at striking a balance between classic and modern. As for Monster, let's just say that they are very lazy consistent with their motorsports sponsorship branding.

The 2016 Monster Energy Supercross logo:

If you look carefully, you can trace the evolution from the 2011 Monster Energy Yamaha Supercross logo:

Now, behold the Monster graphics wizards' creation for the Monster Energy Kawasaki race team:

It's remarkable how these guys manage to cut and paste adapt to all of these different entities. I don't know if you have heard, but Monster has announced two more new racing sponsorships for 2017.

Might as well. A TV costs $150, a phone costs $700.

My phone only cost like a $100. iPhones aren't the only phone bro

This is my phone. It's a Phone. I can talk to people and even text if I want to go high tech. I got it free when I signed a two year contract with Verizon.

Got mine from the spy surplus store when CONTROL was shut down under Carter. 98¢.

I am not disagreeing with you as a person sees what they see and perceive what they perceive but I think I would have to be well into the second day of an acid trip to see as much as others do. A quick look says to me the green things look like something a kid would doodle in class....well....they also look like mutant ducks with elongated necks too but that is a different story. The actual "Monster" name in the chosen font looks like something a hair metal band like Quiet Riot, Ratt, Poison or Bon Jovi would have emblazoned on merchandise in an attempt to not look like the posers they are/were.

For practical purposes what does that look like?

 

[Charlie Spencer]

You have no idea how much I want this to be a real thing.

Ha! I got mine for 86 cents, and it came pre-programmed with Barbara Feldon's number.

I believe in today's vernacular those phones are referred to as "drug dealer phones."

Thank you! I knew I'd seen that style of demonic wanna-be font in the past. Thanks for reminding me it was from that era.

With trailers.

Would you believe I prefer one of these over any phone ever made?

I actually forced myself to look at the logo and that is what I saw and I am glad you did too!

A lot of crying

You pay for it in your monthly bill.

You mean mine that's like 35 a month? Unlimited everything?

[PhillyAndroids]

I referred to it as a "Sprint Cup race" or "NASCAR race" when telling non-race friends why I was headed to Dover those weekends.

I am just going to call it the monster cup im way to lazy to say that whole thing haha
