Green27 Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 I didn't see a thread dedicated to paint schemes, just talk about the season in general. Figured I would try to get one going here! I would love this to be the one place we go to in order to talk upcoming paint schemes, what's on our wishlist, etc. Here are some schemes for the upcoming race at the Charlotte ROVAL! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjarvie Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 There is a thread on page 3 that hasn't been updated since July. It's just motorsports threads don't gain much traction around here because they aren't stick and ball sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCarp1231 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 A lot of Bryon’s schemes lately have the character of unseasoned chicken 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it looks like the sponsor didn’t give them enough money to paint the car. I know it’s wrap but all white cars with the only designed element being a silver stripe last week, and a green number and barely visible mint green loops this week makes it look like the sponsor didn’t give them a design for the car. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green27 Posted October 16, 2023 Author Share Posted October 16, 2023 Agreed, as white can certainly be a clean look, but it's odd how bland these recent schemes have been. There are modern all/mostly white schemes that look so much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is “Z” and “relay” they just seem like tech startups especially when they come out with all white cars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCarp1231 Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 William Byron’s paint scheme for Martinsville. I actually dig this one. The hood logo is a little too low. Hopefully it’s not a one off and gets more races next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sky1324 Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Every single 24 scheme would be dramatically improved if they would go back to using the proper gold numbers on every car. Keeping the number color that iconic gold would help the car look a lot more like the iconic cars Jeff Gordon ran that made the number famous. The Pods scheme isn't too bad but the Z and Relay schemes are embarrassing. 1 1 Quote the user formerly known as cdclt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 It’s a damn shame we’ve never gotten a car sponsored by Dunkin’/Baskin Robbins. That has potential to be two of the slickest schemes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think that Austin Dillon's 3 should have a different font from the Earnhardt 3 and Bowman's 48 should be a different font. Basically, if someone stays with a number long enough to have it primarily be associated with them, then the next guy should have a different font. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Looks like Byron’s 2024 Axalta scheme will have flames 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujju2 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Strongly of the opinion that not only the 24, but all of the HMS cars need to go back to the iconic gold numbers. Also, I really hate how much white is in NASCAR these days, but particularly at HMS. Blue, red, and yellow are the colours of HMS in my mind. This is what HMS is supposed to look like: As a HMS fan, I hate seeing so much white in their schemes now. And while I'm glad to see the flames returning on the 24, they really shouldn't be on a white base. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont care Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Yea really hating the white based cars, I have to wonder though if that’s because if they have to go to a backup car with them being white it’s less drastic of a change when they aren’t able to put on all the wrap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
