They'd have to go through a lot to get that scheme to look exactly like it. I remember Patricia and Kurt said it took months to get approval from the studio, Will Farrell, etc just to run the ME scheme. I don't think they had time for this seeing it was just announced. Regardless, I like it. It's simple.

I'm relieved that this car doesn't look like the one from Talladega Nights.

The less we're reminded of that horrible movie, the better.

I have another idea. Isn't Gatorade owned by Pepsico?

If so,

I bet it'd look good on a Gen6.

Just a thought.

Didn't realize until seeing that picture that it's just a giant Mountain Dew logo.

I still like it for some reason.

That's exactly how those giant 99 cent cans look. Looks like garbage on the car but I can see why dew wanted that look.

Yep,
Gatorade = Pepsi
Powerade = Coke

The folks that design NASCAR paint schemes need to learn basic graphic design.

Most schemes are too messy and complicated, don't draw your attention or catch your eye and just don't look good at all. Minimalism is "in" right now too, so there's really no excuse.

Jr.s regular scheme is easily one of the better ones but this is dreadful.

I'm really digging the 34. Love the lines from the headlights back. Could do with smaller stars but much better than what they usually have.

Richard Petty Motorsports will pay tribute to Maurice Petty with this car at Martinsville.

Image

They are running #41 this week because that is the number Maurice ran during his driving career.

Someday the swoop will disappear, and the world will rejoice.
