Ross Chastain #1 Jockey Chevy Camaro-It’s a good look, with a great color scheme, and that will always earn an A.
Austin Cindric #2 Menard’s/Quaker State Ford Mustang–Kyle Busch #8 Nicokick Chevy Camaro-Pastel is NOT a good look for race cars, and the design really doesn’t help. F
John Hunter Nemechek #42 Jack Link’s/Dollar Tree Toyota Camry-When done right, plaid can work well, as exampled here. A
Erik Jones #43 Massey Motor Freight Toyota Camry-Not a bad look, but a downgrade from last year. B
Ricky Stenhouse Jr. #47 NOS Energy Chevy Camaro-Same scheme as last year, same B grade.
Cody Ware #51 Arby’s/AC Barbecue Sauce Ford Mustang-Black and smoke works, the red roof works, all of this works. A
Ryan Preece #60 Kroger/Celsius Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same B grade.
Anthony Alfredo #62 Fortify Building Solutions Chevy Camaro-These changes really don’t improve or detract in any way, so it’s still a B.
Michael McDowell #71 GUNK Chevy Camaro-Same scheme as last year, same B+ grade.
BJ McLeod #78 Pigeon Forge Racing Coaster Chevy Camaro-There are too many designs and too many colors for this to be anywhere near good, so this gets an F.
Daniel Suarez #99 Wendy’s Frosty Chevy Camaro-This scheme is in the running for worst scheme of the year. It’s going to take a lot to beat this one. Too many colors, and too many stripes and designs. F
