Driver explains why rainbow scheme won’t show up this week
Fans were all jazzed up to see Jeff Gordon run his old Rainbow Warrior scheme two weeks ago at Bristol Motor Speedway, so much so that they’ve been asking what he had planned for Darlington Raceway on throwback weekend.
Get those sad-faced emojis ready, because it turns out Gordon won’t run a throwback this week. He explained on social media:
I understand everyone’s bummed #24 won’t have a throwback design @TooToughToTame. Timing & right scheme didn’t work out for this weekend.

The timing worked out for us to do our #Rainbow24 throwback @BMSupdates. It was great to drive that car again & see amazing support for it.
