2024 NASCAR THREAD

Harry Burton coming through with a top-10 for the Wood Brothers. Likely his first?

Edit: Burton's 4th top-10 finish of his Cup career (Talladega, Darlington, Pcono, Atlanta) contributed to the Wood Brother's total of 581 top-10s. All 12 of Burton's lower-tier wins have been in a Toyota. Wood Brothers are still seeking their 100th Cup win.

Damn. That wreck was identical to Earnhardt.

It's as beautiful as I hoped it would be! Fans have begged for this throwback for years. I remember the first time I saw this car roll out of the infield garage at Daytona in '94. Having not breached 5' yet, I was waddling between tall chainlink fences and stretching to get a view of the new schemes for the season. I was a fan of the '93 Billy Hagan scheme, but this one popped in a new way. Jeff Gordon's rainbow scheme was one year old and still fresh. The Tide Ride had been around since '87, but something about the crisp, defined lines and bold colors made this scheme an instant hit. This scheme is timeless and leaps and bounds better than most of the bland schemes on the modern cars.

 

Totally agree. It's badass.

 

They did a great job with this scheme. I don't know why they stopped focusing on one era. Now the schemes are all over the place. I was never a fan of the national guard colors on the 88. It's cool that the 9 is throwing it back to JR but I don't love the car. The late 90's, early 00's were the golden era for me. The special schemes on the 3 for the Winston. The silver select car is my all-time favorite. Also the 17 Western auto car with the chrome number. The Tide car was awesome in person. The Silver ghost scheme that the 88 had on it when Gordon drove it. That was a good one. The Coke throwback that the 14 did was a good one too.

 

Dover scheme.
Hope Heim can give it a good run.

That’s sooo cool

 

Best one yet. It also helps that they can use the actual scheme from the actual team with the actual number! But I'm a bit biased too since I was a huge Terry Labonte fan which is also why I'm a Kyle Busch fan.

 

I was at darlington when Terry won his last race.
