Wednesday - Add 0n



So this was the paint-scheme on the #33 Chevy on Sunday.  It actually took me a while to find this pic.  I think that one of the announcers just gratuitously came up with the idea that it was a Pollock.  An educated Red Neck?  Whatever.  It looks better here than it did on the track.  Just sayin'.

Its worth noting that the driver of the car is Landon Cassill, a native of Cedar Rapids, Iowa.  He came up in NASCAR through the Hendrick organization, so he has some bona fides.  The team has some history as well, and is co-owned by a guy out of Virginia by the name of Joe Falk.  Falk definitely isn't deeply funded, but he has a bit of a connection with Childress Racing and seems to be able to find some fringe sponsors that keep allowing him to race.

There's some more interesting information about NASCAR in-breeding with the 33, Childress, Austin Dillon, Phoenix Racing, and 2014 rides, but Patrick is probably the only reader who would get through it. So I'll leave it to him to do his own following of that thread.  Your welcome, Peanut Gallery.
