Read the dialogue
A celebration problem
Ryder holds the P1 trophy beside the parked SP1 Porsche 944. Ryder: “First win! Where’s the confetti?”
The parts department delivers
Zip holds up a very long parts receipt while Wrench cranks a paper shredder. Zip: “I found the parts receipts.”
Budget confetti
The three teammates cheer under a shower of shredded paper beside the parked car. Wrench: “Now that’s a celebration!”
The winning balance
With the trophy raised and paper stuck to his cap, Ryder says: “We’re rich!” Zip: “In memories.” Wrench: “And zip ties.”
Meet the cartoon crew
One driver. Two mechanics. Zero chill.
Ryder
The driver in the white FuelLine cap. Chasing P1 and trying to keep the celebration under control.
Wrench
The mustached mechanic. Confident in the car. Less confident in his folding chair.
Zip
The mechanic with short, shaggy hair and a backwards white cap. Quick with a fix, a deadpan comment, and a handful of zip ties.
The illustrations are inspired by the crew's reference photo. Wrench and Zip are fictional nicknames; the jokes and dialogue are invented for the strip.
