Demolition Derby Slogans FAQ

Which derby slogans work best on a shirt?

Short ones read best, like Crash specialist or Talk derby to me. Save the longer sayings for the back of the shirt.

Can we add our car number and driver’s name?

Yes. Many crews put the car number on the front and the driver’s name and a slogan on the back.

When should we order our shirts?

Order a few weeks before you need them. That leaves time to approve the design, collect sizes, and have the shirts arrive in time.

Can I get help with the design?

Yes. Start in the Design Lab, and Custom Ink’s Inkers can help with fonts, colors, and placement.
