The Driver Suit Blog-Paint Scheme Grades-September 10, 2016

By David G. Firestone

Ryan Blaney #21 SKF Ford Fusion-White works quite well with the Penske template, and the red bordered blue looks really good. All in all, a great scheme. A

Chase Elliott #24 Red Cross Chevy SS-White and red is always a solid color scheme, and the design here looks really good. A

Josh Wise #30 Incredible Bank Dale Earnhardt Throwback Chevy SS-It’s a good throwback, but I’m wondering why the US Army would pick orange and blue for a color scheme. Then again, it’s from 1976. Still, it looks good, and earns an A

Matt DiBenedetto #83 EJ Wade Construction Toyota Camry-Reversing the color scheme can sometimes improve the scheme, in some cases it can make the scheme worse. This scheme is the same B- scheme as the black scheme.

Ty Dillon #95 Death Wish Coffee Chevy SS-The subtle designs look good, and the color scheme is great. I give it an A.

Cole Whitt #98 Carolina Skiff Throwback Chevy SS-Another in the line of great throwbacks from the Southern 500. A great design, with a great scheme will always earn an A.

I'm just a normal guy who collects race-worn driver suits, helmets, sheet metal, and other race-worn items. I will use this blog to help collectors, and race fans alike understand the various aspects of driver suits and helmets, and commentate on paint schemes.
