Need this text without the background.
There goes both versions, but you could also paint the decal inside GTS. Sorry for the low quality mic, but it was the best I could find.
Do you know what font it is by any chance? It could be very helpful.

Bit of a clarification here in regards to the 1998 decal you posted:
my last request wasnt to recreate the actual 1998 champion decal on the Pennzoil GT-R, but it was to do an exact recreation of the irl 1998 champion decal (the one you made) with these two decals here:
My apologies if i didnt initially specify and explain the request well enough at first. @Seebsma

Anybody got any ideas why the attached SVG is cutting off most of the logo in SVG OMG? I just processed a load of decals and this is the only one playing up. All made in the exact same process.
Should look like this:

Any help greatly appreciated!

I was wondering why a simple, single colour decal with a border came in at nearly 60kb and it turns out all your decals are in the same svg. I think you need to change your process. If you delete all the other layers, and save it as optimised svg it comes out as 3kb.

@daan I've tried that and ended up with the same issue... Still chops off 80% of the logo. Any ideas?

Have you tried to upload it into GTS? SVGOMG doesn't always display the full image but it may be fine once uploaded.

No, I'll give that a try.
Also, a question on stroke weights. I've used Inkscape to have much heavier strokes than my previous files so they're effective when the decal is small, but when it goes into the livery editor it seems to drop the definition it has in Inkscape and in SVG OMG where the stroke is set behind the main paths and the decal just ends up a black splotch. Am using the wrong settings to achieve this?
That one in particular just comes out as a black blotch. Do I need to use one of the other "Order" settings instead?
EDIT: That TRUST logo worked in the game, just displayed weirdly in SVG OMG. Thanks for the tip!

As you've discovered there are pretty major "issues" with GTS and files output by the official, up to date, version of SVGOMG.
I could go in-depth into the reasons why but they are many, long and, if all you want is your decal to upload correctly, extremely boring!
Technically the "fault" doesn't actually lie with SVGOMG, but rather with SVGO, the GUI-less software for which SVGOMG is just a "front end". So from now on I'm just going to refer to SVGO...
Basically, to cut a very long and multi-faceted story short, the official, up-to-date, version of SVGO outputs files that are incompatible with the GTS in-game SVG renderer; SVGO spits out SVG 1.1 Specification files (even if the original input file was SVG 1.0 Spec) while GTS' in-game SVG renderer expects SVG 1.0 specification files.
There is a further "issue" with how SVGO interprets incoming SVG files; it expects them to strictly adhere to either the 1.0 or 1.1 Specification. While most software will try to work-around minor, non-critical, issues the developer of SVGO took the hard-line approach that its not his (or her) job to "fix" files issues created by other software not sticking strictly to the SVG specification(s). You've witnessed this when part of your decal appears to have been cut off.
Fortunately for us the SVGO developer didn't always take this hard-line approach so there are versions of SVGO (and by extension SVGOMG) which are compatible with GTS; that do spit out 1.0 Spec files and do work-around minor spec compliancy issues. Also fortunately for us is the way SVGO (and SVGOMG) is stored and presented on the web (via the github code repository) which allows us to effectively go back in time and grab (fork) one of those old versions so that anybody can use it...
Exactly like I did here: https://djshades.github.io/svgomg4gts/
As @daan has correctly pointed out, if your file is already <15kb straight from your SVG creation/editing software (once you've removed any unnecessary/hidden layers) then you may as well just avoid SVGOMG (or any SVG optomiser for that matter) and upload it directly to the GTS website. If you need to run an SVG through an optomiser to try and get it under 15kb then don't use the official version of SVGOMG but the version I've linked to above.
If that is displaying correctly in Inkscape and SVGOMG then it could very well be the 1.0 vs 1.1 issue rearing its head again.
As per the advice earlier, if you really need to run it through an optomiser then try the one I've linked to above.
It's okay if you set strokes in paths, since GTS recognize this SVG feature. The problem is that the game ignores the order property so it always clips the stroke over the fill color, although you specify the stroke behind the path. You could duplicate the layer and remove the stroke in the path above, but bear in mind that this will increase the final file size.
The preview might not be accurate with SVGOMG, but you could turn on this setting so its scale displays better as an output:
Btw, SVGOMG removes hidden layers by default.

Thanks guys, your help is immensely appreciated!! I managed to get it done using the "duplicate and remove stroke" approach, but I'll try uploading direct from inkscape more often too.

I'll update this post with the missing ones.
EDIT: The silhouette is not precise, but might help.

Have you converted the text to paths? How have you created the svg files? If it's something you've made with text and saved as svg, you need to convert the text to paths, then ungroup the text.

Uhhh I wasn’t actually the person who created them so I don’t know tbh
Edit: Fixed, thank you for your help
