The Driver Suit Blog-The Driver Suit Blog-Al Unser-1981

Al Unser poses with his 1981 #88 Valvoline/Longhorn Racing Longhorn/Cosworth

For our last IndyCar scheme for Throwback Thursday, I have a question: Um…could someone explain to me why the blue on the stripes and the blue on the numbers are completely different from each other? I’d also like to know why the LONGHORN on the sides and tail are equally mismatched. The thing is, it you replaced one with the other, they would both work well, but because there are two different things going on pointlessly here, I have to give this scheme a C+

The Driver Suit Blog-My Thoughts On Last Week’s Protocol Change

By David G. Firestone

I’d like to thank you for dealing with the interruption last week. I had to work on a couple new projects that I’ve been wanting to do. The first is my new series where I try various hard sodas. This is the most recent episodes.

The second is something I’ve been wanting to try for some time, in that I’m trying vintage beer. This is an example of JR Ewing’s Private Stock beer.

These are easy to shoot, but with my work schedule, not as easy to edit. So I took time off to make this project a reality. I love working on The Driver Suit Blog, but sometimes I need to take a break to refresh myself and work on other things. I don’t do it that often, but I have to do it sometimes. From now until the end of November, things will be business as usual.

I also wanted to discuss something else that is taking place. I was up in the air about this until recently, but I can now confirm I will be traveling to Tucson to spend time with my parents again in February. I may or may not have a project to work on down there for The Driver Suit Blog. I will try and come up with something.

That’s basically all for now, and with November comes Formula One Month, and I plan on having fun with that.
