JR Motorsports announced Tuesday morning (4/27/21) that Gatorade and Pilot Flying J would team up to bring the above throwback paint scheme to Darlington Raceway, with the No. 1 of Michael Annett.
This paint scheme was designed to closely resemble the Gatorade paint scheme that NASCAR Hall of Famer Darrell Waltrip drove from 1976-1980 with DiGard Racing, in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series (see below).

You can catch this throwback paint scheme hit the track on May 8th, at Darlington Raceway for the NASCAR Xfinity Series “Steakhouse Elite” 200. The race will begin at 1:00 PM ET and will be aired live on FOX Sports 1.
