Silly hypothetical question regarding sponsor sticker priority and placement
Purely for fun, the title says it all! I guess ultimately it is personal preference but was wondering what is the general consensus regarding prioritizing sponsor stickers, and placement on the car?
If assuming sponsorship $$$ was entirely EQUAL, and using an electric 2WD car as an example, how would you prioritize sponsor stickers in terms of size and placement (for higher exposure). The following DIFFERENT brands sponsor your buggy:
a) Car
b) Motor
c) Battery
d) ESC
e) Tires
f) Body e.g. JConcepts
g) Paintjob e.g. Darkside
h) Tx/Rx
i) Servo
j) Turnbuckles, ball ends e.g. Lunsford
k) LHS/online shop
l) A.n.other
You can wallpaper your buggy on the following areas (can place more than one sponsor on each area):
i) nose
ii) vertical sides
iii) horizontal sides (that sit above ESC and Rx)
iv) roof
v) back (behind cockpit rear window)
vi) back of car (facing rear CVDs)
vii) wing main area
viii) wing sides
ix) wing back
x) A.n.other
Cheers!

Interesting topic. We want 3 stickers. One per side and 1 on the wing. But we are the car manufacturer. I feel that should be the most important, second is tires. Servo, radio, maybe it is relevant. Batteries, tools, fuel, etc..... It is nice to mention I suppose, but do they really help win races?
We are actually switching over to shirts for people with multiple sponsors that have multiple logos on them. Spending a fortune on paint like some do and then littering it with stickers is silly in my opinion.

But at the same time, if a company is helping you out, you should represent them even if it is screws or paint. Got to help everyone in the industry as best as we can.

Then I suppose tire additive should get a mention

rofl, It had to be said.
Besides...
I used to spend hours contemplating over decal placement, until I realized they just covered all my hard work.
Then TL came out with sheets to tell us where to place the decals and cut me to 70% off(Horizon take over period), so I figured if i'm buying the stuff, i'd buy what I wanted and put the stickers where I wanted. It was costing me $8,000 a year to be sponsored anyways. (travel & non covered items to be competitive)
Freed up a TON of space and cost WAY less to just race for me. Easy, no pressure, just fun.
