I’ve been thinking for a while about a name for the car. It’s going to be white with black accents. I’ve though of it as a Stormtrooper color scheme, but I didn’t want to go the Star Wars route so I went a different direction. When I was around eight my grandparents took me to Sea World and I was picked out of the audience. They had me stand at the edge of the pool and the Orca came half out of the water and gave me kiss — my guess is that they don’t do that anymore. Given that it didn’t chomp me, maybe it was an omen. They’re bad ass, so I’ve named the car Orca and created the badge shown below.
Many people are more interested in the result than the journey, so I have started a parallel site OrcaAutsports.com which has summary-level details and some professional photos (more to come). The coolest page is the one that allows the headers to be interactively rotated 360 degrees. Click the button below to check it out.
