Can you see me now?

Back in the day when Tony Stewart drove a similar Menards flavor of IndyCar there was a little orange and red mixed to the livery. Absent the offsetting colors, Ed Carpenter's ride must glow in the dark when they turn off the lights in the garage.

UPDATE: I guess the color makes the car faster, because in a wacky day of qualifying Ed hammered his way up to P2!

  2. Jeff,

    Not nearly enough day-glo red and orange. But it's better than the electric slime green Greg Ray's car was painted in 2000. And a Menard's car with no Buic, I mean Menard V6? Heresy!

  3. Hey, it's bright, will attract attention, and ISN'T some combination of red, white, and blue. Here's to variety!

  4. Looks nice. I agree though, some black trim would be perfect, with maybe of touch of orange.

  10. Now THAT is an interesting qualifying. Too bad it wasn't on TV. But wait, I can watch Nationwide qualifying on Speed TV! Awesome!
