The Driver Suit Blog-Throwback Thursday-Darrell Gwynn-1987

Darrell Gwynn’s 1987 disasterous attempt to recreate Swamp Rat 30 The Budweiser red looks good, I’m not a huge fan of the white front design they used here, but they fixed in by 1992. The old QUAKER STATE logo looks decent, but I hate the shade of green they used. It almost looks like the […]

The Driver Suit Blog-My Thoughts on The Troy Coughlin Situation

By David G. Firestone I’m going to be a little lazy this week. I normally would work on the Tracker and grades over the weekend, but this last weekend was a little bit different. On Saturday, I had a cookout to celebrate my 35th birthday. I had friends and family come over, and we had […]

The Driver Suit Blog-All Eyes on Flushing…and the US Open

By David G. Firestone Going off topic again this week. I’m not the biggest fan of tennis. I don’t understand a lot of the rules, and I don’t understand the scoring system, even though I took a class on it in high school. That said, tennis has a huge fan base. Naturally, the tennis memorabilia […]

The Driver Suit Blog-Throwback Thursday-Gary Ormsby-1986

Gary Ormsby races his streamlined 1986 Castrol dragster Castrol has a very good shade of green and a very good shade of red in their logo, and both are on display with this dragster. I like the idea of the green stripe up the side interrupted by a white background with CASTROL GTX in green […]

The Driver Suit Blog-Some Site Updates For 2018

By David G. Firestone I was going to discuss some things for the website last week, but real life got in the way. I would normally not discuss something that heavy, but I was so disgusted with what I was seeing, that I had to say something. I try to keep things light, and I […]
