The Driver Suit Blog-Throwback Thursday-Davey Allison-1991

By David G. Firestone Davey Allison’s Texaco Havoline Ford Thunderbird speeds down the track in 1991. The white-outlined gold numbers are gone, as is the metallic gold stripe. They have been replaced with a new design red number, and yellow letters, respectively. I like the new rounder numbers, and the shade of red works well […]

The Driver Suit Blog-My Thoughts On Vacation

By David G. Firestone Just a short article this week. I love writing The Driver Suit Blog, don’t get me wrong, but sometimes I need a break. As such, starting this Saturday, I’m going to take my annual summer sabbatical. I need a chance to decompress and get away from the hectic pace that is […]

The Driver Suit Blog-Paint Scheme Grades-June 25, 2016

By David G. Firestone Kevin Harvick #4 Mobil 1 Chevy SS-Same scheme as Mobil 1 #14, Same A grade. Greg Biffle #16 Kleen Performance Plus Motor Oil Ford Fusion-Good color scheme, black looks good, and the silver, yellow, and white works well. The design is mediocre at best. The “cutting edge” design is over and […]

The Driver Suit Blog-The Vest Project Part 8-Brazillian Flair

By David G. Firestone The Vest Project rolls on with this week’s installment. You often see sponsors who are loyal to drivers, but here is a case where the loyalty is deeper that you might think. Duroline is a maker of brake parts from Brazil. In recent years, they had been in NASCAR, with fellow […]

The Driver Suit Blog-Thrownback Thursday-Dave Marcus-1991

By David G. Firestone Dave Marcus is paying tribute to the United States Coast Guard in his 1991 Chevy Lumina. The aqua works well with the sponsor, and the red and white stripes look good too. The door numbers look better on the door than on the roof for some reason. The black border doesn’t […]

The Driver Suit Blog-My Thoughts on 2017

By David G. Firestone For the last few weeks, I’ve been thinking about how I’m going to move forward to 2017. It might seem a little early, but if I’m going to be able to successfully implement any changes to formats, I need to be able to have enough time to figure out how and […]
