The Driver Suit Blog-Paint Scheme Grades-January 29, 2022

By David G. Firestone

Austin Dillon #3 True Velocity Chevy Camaro-Color scheme is great here, but I think it’s somewhat over designed. It’s not terrible, so I give it a B.

Kevin Harvick #4 Hunt Brothers Pizza Ford Mustang-The rearranging of stripes doesn’t add or detract from the new scheme, so it stays as a B+

Corey LaJoie #7 Schluter Systems Chevy Camaro-I think that the sublimated designs are pointless, but otherwise this is a solid scheme. A

Denny Hamlin #11 FedEx Express Toyota Camry-I like this look much better than last year. It’s well designed, has a great color scheme and a great fade. A

Ryan Blaney #12 Advance Auto Parts Ford Mustang-This new design is great! It’s well designed, and has a great color scheme. A

Harrison Burton #21 DEX Imaging Ford Mustang-My only complaint here is that the black isn’t needed. Other than that, this is a great scheme. A

William Byron #24 Liberty University Chevy Camaro-This is a great design. It works well with the new number placement. I like this, and it gets an A.

Josh Bilicki #77 Zeigler Auto Group Chevy Camaro-Good color scheme, plus a bad design scheme earns a C.

The Driver Suit Blog-Paint Scheme Grades-January 22, 2022

By David G. Firestone

Ross Chastain #1 Advent Health Chevy Camaro-Advent Health loves to over design their cars using bad color and design schemes. This one might be their worst yet. Everything about this scheme is wrong. F

Kevin Harvick #4 Rheem Ford Mustang-I think the car is a bit over designed, but the color scheme is good, and the design isn’t awful, so I’ll give it a B+

Kyle Larson #5 Hendrickcars.com Chevy Camaro-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Tyler Reddick #8 3Chi Chevy Camaro-I like this look, I think it’s great, and the new number position works well here. A

Chase Elliott #9 LLumar Window Film Chevy Camaro-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Aric Almirola #10 Smithfield Foods Ford Mustang-As much as I like metallic gold on race cars, it looks forced here. It serves no real purpose, and just looks odd. It’s a great scheme regardless, so I’ll give it an A-

Christopher Bell #20 Rheem Toyota Camry-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Erik Jones #43 U.S. Air Force Chevy Camaro-The dark green works well, and the smooth simple look is great. A

Timmy Hill #66 Bumper.com Ford Mustang-The pink isn’t needed, and the car isn’t needed. The rest of the color scheme looks decent, and the design scheme is decent, so I’ll give this a C.

Daniel Suarez #99 Commscope Chevy Camaro-Same scheme as last year, same F grade.

The Driver Suit Blog-Paint Scheme Grades-January 15, 2022

By David G. Firestone

Kevin Harvick #4 Busch Light Ford Mustang–Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Chase Elliott #9 NAPA Chevy Camaro–Changing the design doesn’t make the scheme better, nor does it makes it worse. B

Bubba Wallace #23 Leidos Toyota Camry–The great color scheme is ruined by the awful design scheme. They cancel each other out, and this gets a C.

Cole Custer #41 HaasTooling.com Ford Mustang–I like the new rear design, it adds to the look. A-

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. #47 SweetLeaf Chevy Camaro–Getting rid of the dot design will earn this scheme an A, but with it, this scheme is taken down to a C.
