By David G. Firestone

Kevin Harvick #4 Busch Plaid Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Ryan Newman #6 Roush Performance/Acorns Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Aric Almirola #10 Smithfield Get Grilling America Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Paul Menard #21 Menard’s/Maytag Ford Mustang-Darker colors work well with the new Menard’s template, and this is a good example. The dark blue works well here, so I give this an A.

Matt Tift #36 The Pete Store Ford Mustang-It’s a great color scheme, but it is very over designed. I don’t like the design, but it does work with the color scheme. I’ll give this a B-.

Bayley Currey #52 Steakhouse Elite Chevy Camaro-The two changes to the new scheme made a huge improvement. The new scheme looks cleaner, and smoother, and is a great look. I’ll give this an A

Joey Gase #66 Sam Bass Tribute Toyota Camry-Normally, I’d give this an F. But because this is to honor the greatest NASCAR artists of all time, I’ll give this a C. It’s still over designed, but it is a fitting tribute.

Matt DiBenedetto #95 Thank You Toyota Toyota Camry-This color scheme and design scheme aren’t amazing. They are also not awful. They are directly in the middle. So, since they are in the middle, this gets a C.

G-Force…Not A Scientific Law, But A Firesuit Manufacturer.

G-Force Racing is a company that makes auto racing safety products. They have been around some years now. While they do show up in the big leagues every so often, they are dwarfed by the major racing safety companies. One example of them showing up in the big leagues is an example from FAS Lane Racing.

Go FAS Racing began life as one of Jack Roush’s Cup teams. In 2010, Roush sold Bill Jenkins the equipment, and Latitude 43 Motorsports was born. After the 2010 season, Jenkins decided to sell the team to crew chief Frank Stoddard, who founded FAS Lane Racing in 2011. In 2014, the team merged with Go Green Racing to form Go FAS Racing, which operates to this day.

One of FAS Lane Racing’s sponsors during their first seasons was US Chrome. US Chrome sponsored Mike Bliss, Terry Labonte, and Ken Schrader in 2011. US Chrome also sponsored T.J. Bell, Mike Bliss, Ken Schrader, ans Timmy Hill in 2012. During those seasons, a crew member wore this double layer G-Force pit crew jacket. The jacket shows a decent amount of use, with scuffs and stains.The collar is of the standard variety.The cowl has a warranty label, and has care instructions. The name ABNER is embroidered into the collar. The right chest has a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series logo, and a GOODYEAR logo embroidered into it.The left chest features a FAS LANE RACING logo, and a SOUTHERN PRIDE logo embroidered.The front torso features a U.S. CHROME PERFORMANCE COATINGS logo embroidered in white and blue on the red material.The shoulders feature epaulets in white outlined in blue. A G-FORCE PRO SERIES RACING GEAR patch is present year the arm gusset. The right sleeve features a SUNOCO logo and a FEDERATED AUTO PARTS logo embroidered on the top of the sleeve, but nothing in television position. The left sleeve features a C&J ENERGY SERVICES logo and a NASCAR logo embroidered on the top of the sleeve, but nothing in television position. The back of the suit shows some light wear.The back of the neck is unadorned.The back torso features a U.S. CHROME PERFORMANCE COATINGS logo embroidered in white and blue on the red material.Next week, another pit crew jacket.

Paint Scheme Grades-April 13, 2019

dgf2099Leave a comment

By David G. Firestone

Landon Cassill #00 Jacob White Construction Chevy Camaro-I like the StarCom color scheme, but I think that the design is over done.

Landon Cassill #00 Superior Essex Chevy Camaro-If the color scheme were reversed, I would like it more. I think the white should be the primary color, and black should be the inner. This still looks good, so I’ll give it a B+.

Austin Dillon #3 American Ethanol Throwback Chevy Camaro-Black and gold works well, especially on a throwback. This is a great scheme, with a great color scheme, and I can’t give this less than an A.

Daniel Hemric #8 Bass Pro Shops/Tracker Boats Chevy Camaro-If the primary color was either black or orange, I would like it more. This scheme, however, isn’t great. In fact, this is awful. Darker colors work better sometimes and this is one of those times. I do like the color scheme, so I’ll give it a D.

Daniel Hemric #8 Caterpillar Throwback Chevy Camaro-This is a great scheme, not just because it looks awesome, but because I like how throwbacks are evolving in NASCAR. It used to be that throwbacks were either old schemes, or based on old schemes. Nowadays, everything from cans to trucks are being used. This example is based on an old Caterpillar tractor from the 1920’s. This looks amazing! A

Clint Bowyer #14 Haas Automation Ford Mustang-It’s a smooth look, with a great color scheme, and that earns an A.

Erik Jones #20 Craftsman “Racing for a Miracle” Toyota Camry-Yes, it is designed by sick children, but it works very well. It’s not over designed, there is a balance of design and color, and it works very well. A

Paul Menard #21 Menard’s/Sylvania Ford Mustang– The new Menard’s template is more finicky than the 2018 version. That said, black works very well with it, and the car looks great as a direct result. It looks great, so I’ll give it an A.

Joey Logano #22 Auto Trader Ford Mustang-This new design still looks awful, but in a different way. It’s not great, so I’ll give it a D+.

Joey Logano #22 Pennzoil Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Corey LaJoie #32 Dude Wipes Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Chris Buescher #37 Bush’s Best Chevy Camaro-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Darrell Wallace Jr. #43 Blue-Emu Chevy Camaro-It’s a great look. The color scheme works. It’s a bold look, that isn’t over designed, and it looks great. A

Bayley Currey #52 Belmont Classic Cars Chevy Camaro-Another great look that works very well. I can’t say anything bad about this, so I can’t. A

Timmy Hill #66 Toyota Camry-It’s a great shade of blue, and there isn’t anything else that needs to be said. A

Quin Houff #77 FALCI Adaptive Motorsports Chevy Camaro-Another great look that works very well. I can’t say anything bad about this, so I can’t. A

Matt DiBenedetto #95 NASCAR Pro Heat/LFR Pro League Toyota Camry-The sunburst design works very well, and the black helps accentuate it. It’s a great look, it looks awesome so it gets an A.

Another Look At Podium Caps Part 2

dgf2099Leave a comment

By David G. Firestone

Hailing from Arras, France, Frédéric Makowiecki has been a staple on the endurance racing circuit since 2010. He has numerous wins in endurance racing, including winning the 2013 FIA World Endurance Championship. He has raced in a number of racing series, including the Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup, the Weathertech SportsCar Championship the GT1 World Championship, Super GT, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

The 2013 Blancpain Endurance Series featured 5 races. The first three, Monza, Silverstone, and Le Castellet had a duration of three hours. The fourth race, the 2013 24 Hours of Spa, was a 24 hour long race, and the final race, held at the Nürburgring had a distance of 1000 km (621.371 miles). At the Silverstone event, Makowiecki, along with Stefan Mücke, and Darren Turner won the event, driving the Aston Martin V12 Vantage GT3 of Aston Martin Racing 86 laps for a distance of 314 miles. On the podium, Makowiecki wore this cap, which he later signed.  The cap shows light use, having only been worn once. There is a large PIRELLI logo embroidered on the front. Makowiecki has signed the brim in silver Sharpie.The left side features a plant design on the brim, and I have no idea what the name for that is. Otherwise, the left side is unadorned.The back of the cap features a smaller PIRELLI logo embroidered above the Velcro closure.Like the left side, the right side features a leaf design on the brim, and is otherwise unadorned.The top of the cap features a black squatchee.The inside of the cap features a care tag, and there isn’t any wear to speak of.Next week, a pit crew jacket.

Throwback Thursday-1983 Hurst Oldsmobile Cutlass

dgf2099Leave a comment

1983 Hurst Oldsmobile Cutlass

Considered the greatest Pro Stock driver of all time, Virginia, Minnesota’s Warren Johnson has 97 race wins and six championships to his name. In 1983, he raced this Hurst Oldsmobile Cutlass, which was designed to look like the version sold to the public. The car looks like Dale Earnhardt Sr.’s Goodwrench Chevy. This car has a great look, and I can’t say anything bad about it. A
