Dan Cyr's orange Camaro that leads off the Some Vegas Pics thread is absolutely perfect.Same with Jeff Lindstrom's white Mustang, Billy Cremo's black Camaro, Dennis Alvey's turquoise Mustang, Leo Glasbrenner's red Firebird, etc

I think spectators would rather see cars that look like those than the rolling refrigerator doors and bulletin boards we have now. Do they even care what the decals say? Do they influence them to buy the same parts for their own cars? I think they just advertise to other racers these days. It shouldn't be hard to come up with a different way for manufacturers tp pay for the publicity they receive for associating with a winning car and driver. (I guess sponsorship lettering, limited to a 3ft x1ft space on the quarters, might not distract from the intended appearance package.)

Like these ?
