Webroot iRacer Race Car

So, if you were wondering what a Webroot sponsored race car might look like, I threw together quick rendering on iRacing. It is hard to read from this angle, but the text on the decklid reads "The Fastest Security on Earth."

I am really glad everyone likes it!
 
In case anyone is wondering what the blue coloring is for, that represents the license level of the driver. Blue means Class A driver. The only level higher, Pro, is black.

My old computer probably cannot handle running the sim, but hopefully I will be able to get a decent upgrade before long... I would love to try it out!

Things at Webroot seem to take forever to implement.  Some really solid ideas in the Ideas Exchange seem to languish and take a long time to process.  But this iRacer concept was implemented and approved in a flash.  Less than one day and it’s already a reality.  :S
 
Is there a lesson to be learned here? ;)

You are right. This idea was implemented FAST!
 
See there? I made a reference to being fast. We are talking about racing. How about that?

Hey Corey,
 
Great job! Now all you have to do is Webroot-ize one of these bad boys:

Corey, be careful when racing 😉. Today's crash in Daytona was horrible and terrifying :S

Being an NHRA fan, I would love to see what you could come up with for a Funny Car.

If you can turn left and stay in control, you aren't driving fast enough! 😉

I wonder why you don't have the green W in front of your nickname if you belongs to Webroot :D
