Ya know, I saw that yesterday through a link at Jay's...and wondered
to myself *what* the camo #25 car behind it was all about. The Cup #25
team "became" what is now the #88. And IIRC, they aren't fielding a
#25 in the Nationwide series that I'm aware of - and even so, the HMS
NNS cars are coming out of JRM, not HMS. Hmm?
Thanks for the link tho Tom, appreciate the head's up. I find it
interesting that they said it took 10 coats of paint to do this
scheme...I'd think paint would add too much weight - certainly when
talking about 10 coats of it. They can't repo ACU (or the similar
MARPAT) in vinyl wrap? I find that puzzling. They were created with
CAD to begin with. Probably something to do with National Security and
the unwillingness of the gubment to release a public digital file of
their camo patterns...lol
