looking forward to all the throwback paint schemes! Absolutely... I am not a fan of Darlington Raceway and have vowed to never attend or watch another race there, but I have to admit... I will be breaking that vow. |

You know I wondered why they put the rainbow paint scheme on the 24 last week when everyone else was doing theirs at Darlington.. I guess they wanted to be different LOL

Sad thing is this has been a really bad year for him and of all years his last year of racing, would like to see him win at least one race before the end of the year.. |

Absolutely... I am not a fan of Darlington Raceway and have vowed to never attend or watch another race there, but I have to admit... I will be breaking that vow. Why? I am originally from Florence, SC and have attended 20+ races there. I loved it and looked forward to it every year, but the last time I went, I purchased the driver intro wristbands. My son and I got there about 3 hours early (first ones there) so he could get a great spot to get high fives from the drivers. After standing on the blistering hot asphalt in 100+ degrees, we were told five minutes before the intros started that we had to move to another section because ours was reserved. Turned out that we were told wrong and that there wasn't a "special section". All we got from the Track VP was a 'sorry 'bout that' response. In all honesty, I don't think much could have been done to appease me after the huge disappointment in my sons face, but a generic 'I'm sorry' pissed me off even more! |

If you look at all the throwbacks planned for this years Darlington Race, they are throwbacks to someone else's design/car. With Jeff Gordon and the Rainbow, it's a throwback to his own design.
Maybe that was the reasoning behind not bringing it to Darlington?

I can definitely see why you feel the way you do. I'm hoping to make it out there next year. I've never been to Darlington and have always wanted to go. I hate that I'm missing it this year with the "Throwback" theme. That would've been super cool to see in person. |
