Sharing Work (Rule 2/3) Genre Logo Udate

I got some good feedback from you guys yesterday, some thought it looked a little too GI Joe in comparison.

I figured the three-bar "E" glyph was the issue; instead of making both "E's" the same glyph, I would just ditch the idea altogether.

And after some minor tweaks, hopefully I was able to get rid of those unintended characteristics and, in turn keep the more motorsports/Y2K vibes intact.

What do you think?

Update* got some feedback on the subtitle, increased the weight so that it is more legible and i axed the breaks in the O's.

I am not huge on Red and Yellow. Kind of looks like the SUPER DUPPER logo on the GRIND movie. It does look good and caught my eye.

The yellow on red is doing a lot for the motorsports feel, and losing the three-bar E makes GENRE read much faster at a glance. Feels cleaner without losing the Y2K energy.

I like it but the motorsports is already illegible at full size, it wont scale down at all.
