Favorite Race Car Paint Schemes
#1
I was just kicking around some ideas for the Geeser II's race livery and it made me think about a bunch of my favorite race car paint schemes. I'll post some of mine and I encourage you guys to look for some and post yours

The Speed World Challenge red/white/blue M3's, and the Realtime Acuras.

The Focus WRC car: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.wrc.com/Popups/GenericGallery.aspx?flash=False&lang=en_GB&type=1&title=2004+Monte+Carlo%3a+Ford+young+gun+Francois+Duval+in+the+Focus+WRC&img=duvallarge.jpg">http://www.wrc.com/Popups/GenericGaller ... llarge.jpg</a><!-- m -->

(And of course, the Subaru WRC car, but a GSR would look a bit wierd in Rally Blue)

i also like just about anything sponsored by martini, such as the porsche 935 whale tail or the alfa romeo 155 BTCC racecar. sorry for the long post, racecars just look so freakin cool.

haha hey, look at that! Now I like it even more. Wow, look how different the "orange" is. I think in reality it's much closer to the first pic, but much more vibrant than either.

and of course, don't forget the BMW art cars (MAYBE not practical for a club racer who repairs with duct tape, but I bet some art students would love to paint a car):

thanks RJ, now I gotta go change my pants.
Since I haven't really been following racing due to lack of Speedvision and time, I can't say that I have much input in this area.

Saw one (or a replica, I have no idea) driving down Main Street in Purcellville, I think it was this Monday. Not knowing what it was at first glance, I immediately thought "RICE!", but now I know better... Maybe.
