iRacing Paint Schemes of the Week
With the Daytona 500 right around the corner, Mike Holloway painted a modern version of Derrike Cope’s 1990 Great American Race-winning paint scheme for the modern-day Chevrolet Camaro ZL1.
Oh, and Mike Wood created the same paint scheme for iRacing’s Super Late Model for those who’d like to rock that 1990 style on short tracks — mustache not included.
iRacing Video of the Week
You never know what’s going to happen at Daytona when the Big One strikes. Except, somehow, the driver whose sixth sense helped safely weave through this major incident.
