Old racing pictures - Post them here thanks

I wouldn't mind looking at some open wheel stuff that people think is cool. Here's some from a r/NASCAR thread about favorite paint schemes.



Terry Labonte. Not sure on the year, somewhere between 1995 and 1999.



Hut Stricklin, 1997 I think.



Bill Elliott in a one-off (I'd imagine) ran this in three races for Batman Forever in 1995. Notice the Thunderbird on the front bumper has been changed to Thunderbat.



Bill Elliott's regular paint scheme in 1996 or 1997.

On the subject of Bill Elliott's McDonald's paint scheme, I thought it was cool that it was also used on the McDonald's NHRA cars. I think it started in 1996 and probably went on for a couple years.



Jim Yates, Pro Stock.



Cruz Pedregon, Funny Car.



Cory McClenathan, Top Fuel. It was hard to find a picture of the actual race car rather than a diecast, so this will have to do.

It wouldn't be SKR without a bike picture.



Keith Amor leading Ryan Farquhar. I don't know the year, late 2000s or early 2010s I'd guess. I think it's at the Kells Road Races in Ireland.

Corn flakes livery is wicked.

Sweet hauler action.

Terry Labonte in victory lane at Bristol in 1995. Dale Earnhardt chased him down in the closing laps while Labonte was stuck behind lapped traffic, and on the last lap Earnhardt got to his bumper. Labonte spun across the line ahead of Earnhardt before nosing into the outside wall. I showed you that picture to show you the following picture.



Bristol, 1999. Labonte pitted for tires with 20 laps to go and Earnhardt stayed out. Labonte ran Earnhardt down and passed him on the last lap with a clean bump-and-run, the standard technique for passing at 90s Bristol. Earnhardt again gave him a shot, sending Labonte into the wall. Earnhardt won and Labonte finished 9th. In his post-race interview, under a shower of boos, Earnhardt famously said he "didn't mean to really turn him around, meant to rattle his cage though." His cage was sufficiently rattled, so much so that even now in NASCAR, "rattle his cage" is a phrase used whenever someone quite clearly dumps another driver.



Bobby Labonte (18) won the final race of the 1996 season at Atlanta. Brother Terry Labonte finished 5th, earning enough points over Jeff Gordon to win the Winston Cup.

As much as I like bikes, 90s NASCAR is where I grew up. One of the best paint schemes was the Morgan-McClure Motorsports #4 Kodak car.
