Kyle Larson revealed his Darlington throwback scheme Thursday, and it’s one that honors NASCAR Hall of Fame inductee Davey Allison. Larson will run the same type of striping effect that Allison had at one time on his famous No. 28 Texaco Havoline Ford.
The stripes on Larson’s No. 42 Chip Ganassi Racing Chevrolet will be in the colors of DC Solar at Darlington. Larson told NASCAR.com’s Jessica Ruffin recently that this year’s throwback idea was near and dear to Jeff Carpoff, the president and CEO of DC Solar.

Larson will run the scheme in the Bojangles’ Southern 500 on Sept. 2 at Darlington Raceway (6 p.m. ET, NBCSN, MRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio). Larson has three top-10 finishes in his four appearances at Darlington in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series.
