This is the new paint scheme we introduced at The Sprints.   It really turned out very nice.   I wanted to thank Jim for getting Preston Pardus to design the paint job.   Preston did an amazing job with the design. I told the guys I wanted some of the black and green back and they came up with this great look.

Glad you like the paint scheme Craig! Jim made it easy to do, with having a good idea on what he was thinking. Came out really well!

Absolutely gorgeous. That is going to hurt when the inevitable shunt happens. Ugly car gets the turn!

Craig, as I said at the Sprints, its one of the best looking cars on the track for sure. Congrats

 

Great work Preston, can see a part time business in your future. And if you see the fortune that Troy Lee made out of his designs (he started purely painting helmets when I was racing motocross) and built his art and design work into an amazing empire that sponsors cars, drivers, racers and more. I know you have the talent for sure

Preston "Pmoney" Pardus is one of the best I have seen in designs, especially for a young guy.  If he keeps it up, I can definitely see him going places.  Hopefully he makes it big !
