Custom UV-Printed Acrylic Race Awards for The RC Compound

The brief

The RC Compound runs multi-scale Trophy Race weekends in Dallas Center, IA — 1/5, 1/8, and 1/10 scale classes, on-site camping, and a tight-knit community that takes its racing seriously. For their June Trophy Race they wanted award hardware as bold as the racing itself: a big, eye-catching plaque that drivers would be proud to hang on the shop wall.

Custom UV-printed acrylic awards

We produced each award on 12″×24″ acrylic using our full-color UV printing process, laying the artwork — checkered flags, the RC Compound 2.0 branding, the race buggy graphic, and the event date — directly onto the panel for vivid, durable color edge to edge. Every plaque was finished with rounded corners and offset standoff mounting for a clean, floating, premium look.

• Full podium series — 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Place — across all six race classes
• Big 12″×24″ format that reads from across the room
• Rounded corners and offset standoff hardware for a finished, wall-ready presentation
• Consistent, repeatable full-color UV print across the entire production run

The result

Come race day, every class had real hardware on the line. The RC Compound put on a standout weekend, and we were proud to be a sponsor and to put our name on awards the winners will keep for years. It's exactly the kind of custom acrylic award work we love — bold graphics, premium finishing, and a crew that cares as much about the details as we do.
