Jeremy Clements Racing is excited to announce they will be fielding a Throwback paint scheme this coming Labor Day weekend at Darlington Raceway.

The No. 51 Camaro SS will be sponsored by long time partners www.repairablevehicles.com and will feature the “Black Widow” paint scheme that was driven by a number of racing greats in the late ’50s in the likes of Hall of Famers Buck Baker and Rex White and powered by the renowed engine buliders of the time, Jeremy’s grandfather and great uncle, Crawford and Louis Clements.

Crawford and Louis both also crew chiefed as well for some all time greats. Crawford crew chiefed Hall of Famers Junior Johnson, Buck Baker and AJ Foyt all to wins the early ’60s, and Louis crew chiefed Rex White to the 1960 Cup Championship.

“I’m really proud to honor my grandfather (who started me in racing) and my great uncle with this cool Black Widow Paint Scheme from the ’50s,” Jeremy said. “Even more excited to represent them and Clements Racing Engines in our home state at Darlington Raceway.”
