On the lighter side of things...what was your favorite paint scheme ever to appear on a champ car?

Mine was the PacWest Hollywood car that "Big Mo" drove in 99 (or 2000?). The one with the jagged line color divisions that was orange, green and blue. I have a 1:18 die cast of it that is just beautiful, they used metal flake paint for the die-cast and it just looks awesome.

A close second would be the Pioneer car that Da Matta drove for PPI. Nothing too fancy, I guess I just really thought that the lines of the design and the burgundy color looked real sharp.

:saywhat: I sure don't remember seeing the back end of that car before.



My favorite was an LCI car back in the early to mid 90's. Real pretty multi color scheme. Have to see if I can dig up a picture at home.

I really liked the blue Kool paint scheme, but this is my favorite:

The blue and silver Kool car is my all-time favorite, and I really liked the MacKenzie Financial paint schemes (well, the colors at least), the PPI MCI cars, and the stars & stripes Eagles.
