Local artists: LVMS has you covered for truck race program

NOW

Las Vegas Motor Speedway is inviting artists, designers, photographers and race fans to enter a contest to design the cover of the Las Vegas 350 NASCAR Camping World Truck Race souvenir program. The contest will run Aug. 1-Sept. 1 and the winning entry will become the cover of the souvenir program on Sept. 26 when the gentlemen start their engines.

This one has LeRoy Neiman written all over it.

Contestants must submit a high-resolution 8” x 11” vertical color or black-and-white design by Sept. 1. Artwork must depict themes pertaining to Las Vegas or racing.

Word of caution: If you submit a black-and-white design and Neiman does his usual thing, you probably won't have a very good chance to win, unless your name is Ansel Adams.

Any medium -- photography, drawings, paintings, a Rohrschacht design that sort of resembles Ron Hornaday, Jr. -- will be considered. Photographic images must be certifiably yours or receive the photographer’s stamp of approval.

Electronic entries should be submitted to: Aubrey Hall, Las Vegas Motor Speedway, 7000 Las Vegas Blvd., Las Vegas, NV 89115. Entries also may be e-mailed to [email protected]. Please include name, address, telephone number and e-mail address.

THEN

Green race cars used to be considered bad luck, but I'll bet if a guy like A.J. Foyt or Richard Petty drove them, they would have just been considered green race cars.
