Chase Elliott will have a sun-filled paint scheme later this year in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.
The look for his SunEnergy1-sponsored No. 24 Chevrolet has been unveiled and it has quite the array of colors.
The car will first take to the track at Daytona International Speedway ahead of the July 2 race at the revamped facility. SunEnergy1 will also be the primary sponsor for Elliott’s races at Watkins Glen International (Aug. 7), Kansas Speedway (Oct. 16) and Phoenix International Raceway (Nov. 13).
SunEnergy1 founder, CEO and part-time NASCAR driver Kenny Habul will pilot the No. 88 SunEnergy1 Chevrolet for JR Motorsports in the NASCAR XFINITY Series on Aug. 6 at Watkins Glen International.
The solar energy company is on board as a sponsor for four races in each of the next three years for the Hendrick Motorsports driver.
Elliott’s rookie season in the sport’s top series is off to a strong start. In addition to nabbing the pole for the season-opening Daytona 500, he has three top-10 finishes in the season’s first five races. The 20-year-old Georgia native and son of NASCAR Hall of Famer Bill Elliott is 16th in the point standings.
