This keyset was inspired by Tech3 early 2000s colorway. A 250cc class motorcycle racing team. Olivier Jacques, and Shinya Nakano rode for them that year and they had a fantastic season, culminating with Olivier being crowned the World Champion in 2000. As a motogp fan, I have long wanted to make a set based on this theme.
The colors are based off the team livery that season, primarily cold grey and acid green with orange accents. Acid green is for Olivier Jacques and orange is for Shinya Nakano. I hope other fans of motor sports will enjoy this keyset as much as I have creating it.

I was just thinking the same thing, the mods are softer on the eyes. I really like the look of this one, Neon Yellow is my favorite color. I went all in on GMK Night Runner, now I have to get this one. lol

Cool colorway, it looks fairly close to GMK Flow but with more contrast. Are you using RAL colors or Pantone?
The kit was based on RAL colors except the Orange accent which is Pantone atm. Will try to find the best RAL to fit the colour.

I think that would be a great addition, for reference, you can check Mito's last sets (https://drop.com/buy/drop-mito-project-mythos-pegaso-custom-keycap-set) which were expanded for the most compatibility that I've seen in a base kit (he separated the numpad but not necessarily relevant in this case)
I personally like the idea of having more compatibility without having to commit to kits that one might not actually have a need or plan for; only for those obscure kits to become coveted in the used market down the road. I've recently sold my GMK 3Run because compatibility with that set was near impossible and would love to replace it with this.
Any chance of including a Formula 1 car in the novelties? I know the set was inspired by MotoGP but the colorway reminds me of Brawn GP (https://i.redd.it/udecvdo08zwz.jpg) including the Orange which almost matches the highlights of Barrichello's helmet and the rollbar of Button's car perfectly!

Added RAL color references
Added placeholder for the 40 kit as people are asking for it on several networks. Preparing it.
Also Added render on the Bauer with Orange accents.
While doing the render for accent, the yellow numpad looked really weird with the orange enter on a full size. That's why now the numpad enter key is a part of the addon kit.

Hi friend! Would you consider adding R3 PgUp and R4 PgDn to your base kit? If you're looking for a few keys to shave off, I'd say the duplicate 1u Ctrl and Alt would be prime candidates for that :)
There will be some updates on the base kit and yeah this is a consideration i had in mind. :)

Would you consider changing one of the ISO alpha keys to avoid having a duplicate \| legend? I've been hearing complaints about these recently. You can either change the R4 key to <>, or the R3 key to #~, based on what you prefer. R4 <> is better objectively speaking (details here (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=90706.msg2894820#msg2894820)), but many people (mostly ISO-UK users) seem to prefer R3 #~.

Hey, what's the mod-colored R1 \| key in the base kit for? Split backspace is already covered by the alpha-colored one. The most common split backspace setups are \|, `~ and \|, Delete. Mod-colored \| would be useful for a `~, \| setup, but I don't think that's very common at all (at least not enough to warrant including that key).
This is mostly aesthetic choice to fit the theme with Nakano's colorscheme.

As a non ISO user i was not really triggered by this as the current base kit has a ISO US compat. Having a partial compat with changing one of those keys seems odd. I'd prefer to have an international kit complete instead of this trade-off situation.
Also because i had lot of questions i'm considering adding a second B in a child kit for Alice users.

Yeah, I get that, but you already have a mod-colored R1 `~ for the top right corner key, right? So what's the mod-colored R1 \| for?

With R4 <> it's still full ISO US compat (“terminal style” (http://www.farah.cl/Keyboardery/A-Visual-Comparison-of-Different-National-Layouts/index.html#enUS)), just without a duplicate legend, which is why I'm suggesting it as the better option.

At first it was mainly for split backspace use but it's pretty uncommon to have also the pipe mod colored. Fixed in the base kit.
Also i've added a second B in the spacekit for alice users.

At first it was mainly for split backspace use but it's pretty uncommon to have also the pipe mod colored. Fixed in the base kit.
Yep, exactly. Cool :thumb:

Great set! running in august is probably also a good decision, simply too many great sets for June as of now!
I can't decide it, i'm dependent on all the proxies. The best slot i had is October.
100% in for a base + novelties. Any plans for a deskmat or rama cap?
Biip will do the deskmat.
Regarding the Rama cap, i've openned a discussion with them so it's in progress but nothing confirmed yet.
Any chance of splitting num/iso to save on costs?

Kits are finalized now so nothing will change. Regarding pricing it's currently in quote discussion. Will update when i have news.

Is there any chance of getting 2 Suzuka, and 2 Bugatti novelties? As an F1 fan I can appreciate people would want the Suzuka cap for both colourways, and I'd imagine if Bugatti is someone's favourite track they'd want it for both too.
edit: Or perhaps Suzuka replacing the Bugatti novelty?
Sorry but no, the colors refer to the 2 pilots of the team

Regarding artisans, some makers confirmed me their collaboration for the keyset; will announce soon.

I feel like the rama cap designs are nice but having only one brass artisan and the other one being a colored aluminium would be nicer!
Agreed

I would also love to see a render of that 1u rama either with white infill, or all white with metal showing through.
Love them overall though
that would be a nice take

Thanks for putting in the time and effort to make this set a reality. I personally have no interest in racing so the theme doesn't actually matter to me but it turned out amazing either way.

Are both Rama's PVD Brass? This just definitely rose in my interest meter.
Yes

Also consider adding a generic R3 1.25u key (e.g. Meta, Code or Fn) to the 40s kit. Staggered 40% boards use various R3 1.25u keys on the left side, not just Enter and Tab, so it'd be nice to have this option. This one key, being generic, could cover many different layouts.
Perhaps also consider reducing the number of accent/non-accent variations in the 40s kit to make it less expensive. For example, drop some of the non-accent Enters.

I wish I could get a keycap with Laguna Seca on it!
Laguna Seca could fit only on a ISO enter IMO.
Maybe it would fit the MotoGP theme better if the brake and shock were modeled after motorcycles instead of cars. Possibly a smaller brake caliper or a reservoir on the shock. Either way I can't wait.
On motorcycle brakes there is more details to add and can be either too sketchy or not even possible due to GMK constraints :/ Also as i read there is couple of car folks interested in this set, which ends up as a compromise.

The 1.25u Shift on the lower right end of the Base kit looks awfully crowded between the arrow and text, if no one's brought that up yet.
its a render...

It's a render of how the final key will be made. How is that not valid?The 1.25u Shift on the lower right end of the Base kit looks awfully crowded between the arrow and text, if no one's brought that up yet.

Unless you're talking about it being close to other keys, whereas I think CS is talking about the legend.

IRL the mold is less bold on the arrow and the arrow is more on the left.
