Jeff Gordon‘s iconic No. 24 rainbow paint scheme is back for this Saturday’s IRWIN Tools Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway (7:30 p.m. ET, NBCSN, PRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).
The four-time champion has five career wins at Bristol, and a win on Saturday would lock him into the Chase Grid for the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup.
How exactly did it all come together? Check it out with this video of the No. 24 paint scheme being wrapped, courtesy of Hendrick Motorsports.
Bristol Motor Speedway also unveiled on Friday that the track in 2016 will have the “Jeff Gordon Terrace,” a backstretch grandstand named after the legendary driver.
Charlotte Motor Speedway also announced Friday its upcoming tribute to Gordon. Leading up to the Oct. 10 Bank of America 500, the speedway is rolling out “Jeff’s Last Ride: A 24-Day Salute.”
NASCAR licensed artist Sam Bass will create original artwork for the Bank of America 500 souvenir program as part of the salute, which also includes a 24-day social media campaign. Another highlight is a collection of iconic No. 24 race cars on display during the Charlotte Auto Fair Sept. 24-27.
