No, it doesn't really belong to any 'official' character, neither is there a 'special custom driver' guy. What happens is that you get to choose one driver from your bank of unlocked drivers to pilot it. For instance, I invitied Mr EAD to pilot my Bright Sparrow Z, but if I wanted to, I could change it to Captain Falcon or Blood Falcon anytime.

What do you mean what kind of tag can I create? I don't really understand.. Technically, you can create anything as long as it fits in the boundary. It could be a name, a picture, some random polka dots - anything.
Anyway, don't expect too much from the emblem creator. The paintbrush is far too big to create anything intricate. In those earlier screenshots, you could see the Mario, Starfox, and Kirby emblems which, in my opinion, are still possible, but extremely difficult to create.
If I have time, maybe I'll take a picture of the emblem creator mode interface later.

You can't name your vehicle? oh well, at least they come up with cool names
I'll just make a decal to put on it so that it'll unofficially have a name! Yeah!
The emblem creator tool will give me even more hours to this game, hooray!

www.cube-europe.com posted some videos, including one of the custimize function. Looks pretty cool to me..just hope nobody will abuse the emblem function to create stuff like Nazi crosses and stuff...-_-
I can't wait to put Tingle and my personal Emblem onto a car!

Here are some pictures on the customisation mode that I created myself.
TAKE NOTE: COPY THE URL AND PASTE IT IN ANOTHER INTERNET EXPLORER WINDOW. Somehow the links bring you back here.... -___- I have no idea why. When I used IMG SRC tags, the pics didn't show either. WEIRD.
http://www.freewebs.com/winde/fz1.jpg - the emblem editor mode, featuring my custom Kirby emblem!!
http://www.freewebs.com/winde/fz2.jpg - stamped emblems onto my Bright Sparrow Z
http://www.freewebs.com/winde/fz3.jpg - buying machine parts at the shop. Note that they're colour-coded. There's even an English, telling you if a part is a body, cockpit, or boost.
http://www.freewebs.com/winde/fz4.jpg - More customisation. The 4 menus on top, from left to right, are: select body, select cockpit, select boost(er), select pilot. The body and boost parts affect their similarly named stats, while cockpit affects grip.
http://www.freewebs.com/winde/fz5.jpg - Even more customisation. From left to right: edit parts, edit colours, stamp on emblems, delete data.
By the way, I know no Japanese characters. : )

Your machine looks cool, Kirb! And the emblems (especially the Kirby one) look great!

I just finished building my own custom machine and it ended up with the name "Alexander"! Pretty cool!%208-%29
I guess specific combinations trigger special names...%20

Well, I would if I could. The problem is, I don't exacly know what else there is to explain. The menus and options are really pretty straight forward.
I tell you what, why don't you shoot me some specific questions?
Maybe if I'm free tomorrow, I'll look into what else I can elaborate deeper.

That's right, Erwan. The name of the car depends on which parts you choose. For example, if I were to change my Bright Sparrow Z's boost part to something called '88', it'll be named as Bright Sparrow 88. There is no way to customise the name.
