Here's something I threw together. Hopefully it will provide a little inspiration for the face. I would suggest keeping it as simple as possible. A complicated logo isn't fun to look at.

I like it without a face, your choice.

Without a face definitely works

I actually like this design as its quite different. It is a little big/complex/colorful which wouldn't work as a sticker too well as most people don't want to have big bulky stickers. I can see it working for a business card though. I like the Toronto, Canada part, Canadian rotary pride, we need more of that! Issue I see with having the cars, is it would be difficult to include all generations, or would it?

I really like the rotor and love the font (exactly what I wanted font wise). But the wizard! Where did that come from LOL, I don't see me ever loving that. This might work as a sticker if its made simple enough. I don't know about the RX-TP, it sounds funny to me, what do you think?

This is the kind of simplicity I was looking for a possible sticker.

I had an idea also if anyone could create it into fruition. I made a quick paint sketch of it. I could see it working as a simple white sticker like Nextmod's. I just put the rotor holding a turbo and a rotor but the mascot doesn't need to be holding anything. I just thought it would make my 2 second paint drawing have a little more content compared to you guys. You guys are awesome, I'm already smiling.

I got the idea from a customer of mine that had a rotor giving it in the butt to a piston. I thought it looked kinda cool...

Are you looking for a logo or a sticker? or a logo you will use as a sticker also? I think you can get a nice intricate logo for the company, business cards t-shirts etc. Also get some simpler designs to put out as promotional stickers

It would be nice if the "sticker version" was a dumbed down version of the main logo but I guess that would be more difficult.

Sorry, for the lack of input. I've been pretty busy as of late and always tired when I get home.

Just brain storming...
Instead of "The Wizard of Oz" try "The Wird or Rotary" or "The Wird of Rx"

And you prefer the RX-8 font? I like the original RX-7 font, but I'm old school.

Or how about incorporating the epitrochoid shape, into a character like Mr. Peanut. But make him look like an Evil Wizard. Give him a Triangular head and a turbo belly.
(Ok, I'll stop now.)

Incorporates the blue, it's simpler and has all three generations. Also has 80s styling cues with the block letter duplication. This one is more a sticker design.

I liked the one that looked like the Pespi logo. You know, considering that you're always drinking Pepsi, might as well let everyone know you tune and drink Pepsi

Yah, I think you guys were trying to hard with the fancy stuff. I currently like this one for a business card... I think it just needs some updating with the fonts and cars and put in rectangular business card form.

For a sticker logo, I think a simple text sticker will suffice. A rotor would be nice but it would have to be simple to stay "clean" if you guys know what I mean.

So, is that a confirmed yes for the Pepsi logo? I can make it in business card format then.

Hmmm, I am late to the thread but I liked the wizard one. Truly tuning is both an art form and a lot of wizardry, because only a few can do it well!

Since I spend a fair amount of time on these, I think I'll do myself a t-shirt or two of each.

Are you still interested in submissions? I'm by no means a graphic designer but I'd like to give this a try.

I think that turned out alright, I'll try a couple other things as well. That would definitely make an awesome marquee.

(I just put wankel down for fun)

Or Black Background
