I believe that's the primary purpose of this form of advertisement, and in that regard it does stand out when compared to most of the others. In fact, the ONLY other one that really caught my eye was the first banner pictured, the Bluegrass Corvette club banner. Even more plain and barren than ours, with a pleasing choice of colors.
I wish I had the image file of ours, I'd certainly experiment with changing the color scheme a bit. But otherwise, I still like what Bucky designed for us.

Yep. That was the whole idea. Most car clubs have somebody with a copy of Microsoft Publisher and an old CD-rom of clipart and they throw the entire mess up there. I thought we needed something you could see across the parking lot and that highlighted the address so people might check out the site.
And it was done back when Vettes all had round taillights, so yeah, maybe a little dated.
I'll see if I can find the old logo files, likely a couple of laptops ago, and get you some files to edit. These were done in Adobe Illustrator.
