St. Clair College student designs wrap for race car

A St. Clair College student will see his work displayed on a race car as it zips around the ovals.

Jacob Wright, a third-year graphic design student at the college's downtown Windsor campus, had his race car wrap design chosen for Nathanial Greenaway, a Tilbury-based driver.

Wright pitched the idea to the instructor of his agency design class. All 27 classmates had one day to produce a concept and create a design.

The designs were whittled down to five after being reviewed by Greenaway and his girlfriend, a graduate of the graphic design program. Wright's winning design was unveiled Friday during an event at the St. Clair Centre for the Arts.

"I'm honestly just blown away, to be honest," said Wright. "Being able to do a project like this, I was happy that I could do something that I was passionate for, and then also make something that he was passionate for."

Greenaway's military background went into the design, with a digital camouflage template in the team colours of red, white, and black.

Greenaway drives for the Ontario Sportsman Series. The 2025 racing season begins on May 16.
