This Hitman Racing Suit Is Either The Most Ridiculous Or The Most Brilliant Thing I’ve Seen

We’ve featured Joey Logano, the driver who races the No 20 GameStop Toyota in NASCAR’s Nationwide Series, several times before. He’s had some awesome car wraps before, hoods dedicated to Bioshock 2 or Red Dead Redemption — things that still look a little strange turning left at 190km/h.

Well, when the flag drops at the History 300 in Charlotte in about 30 minutes, Logano’s going to outdo all of that. Touting Hitman: Absolution, he’ll be wearing a firesuit patterned after 47’s costume. You know, the one that is a black suit and red tie. (Click the image above to embiggen.)

It’s not a real necktie, but the idea of Logano looking like the world’s deadliest limousine driver as he hurtles around the tri-oval is hilariously brilliant to me. I followed up with a Square Enix representative to get more details on Logano’s getup.

Me: Please tell me Joey’s helmet is just a blank bald head with a barcode on the back. And 47’s steely gaze screened over the visor.

Square Enix Rep: Let me check with marketing. (Checks with marketing) Sadly, no. The helmet is not included in this.

Me: Man… OK, well he’s got to be wearing badarse black gloves with this thing, at least, right?

Square Enix Rep: No, unfortunately.

Me: CRAP.
