2020 Racer Contingency Program To be eligible for the 2020 Nissan Contingency Program, the following guidelines must be adhered to and compliant with all applicable competition rules and regulations in effect at the time of the event. Visual Identity Requirements Towards the back of this packet, please see the Visual Identity Guidelines that must be followed. To summarize: Each competitor must display the official, current NISSAN/NISMO die- cut logos as supplied by Nissan Motorsports. Logos are either black, white or red. These colors are the only approved colors for competitors. NISSAN/NISMO double stack logo, or either logo after cutting, must be prominently shown on the front bumper/spoiler/air-dam, the leading edge of the hood, or the top of the hood. NISSAN/NISMO double stack logo or either logo after cutting, must appear on the front/rear fenders, doors, or mirrors if the vehicle is equipped. Please see the registration form to request die-cut logos from Nissan Motorsports. These logos may be cut to fit. Usage of old logos and slogans, such as, but not limited to, ‘Datsun’ or “Enjoy the Ride” are not approved under this contingency program. Driving suits must display the NISSAN wordmark logo on the upper chest area. Nissan Motorsports can supply patches with the NISSAN/NISMO double stack logo or custom embroidery is allowed. Size and font must meet the Visual Identity guidelines. Logo requirements will be enforced.
