Joe Kral, Test Pilot Collective have designed this one. Its called Wrongway

II remember it pretty well because it was done about a year after my first one... NEW Global which was based on a typeface used in the magazine Details in the mid 90’s. My version is a bit more condenced though...

This is one of David Carson’s fonts: SerifedSans.

However, it’s no longer available now so you may want to look at alternatives offered by Stefan et al.
Angel,
You’re right I now notice the capital “C” which is different to Wronway. Thanks for pointing that out.
Cheers
thanks alot you guys! how come SerifedSans isnt available anymore?
are there any similar freefonts?
I’m sure they’re out there, but I wouldn’t know.
SerifedSans is essentially Alternate Gothic 2 with serifs tacked on.

and it looks it. There was a lot of that mix and match stuff going on in that era.
