New Paint Scheme for Sonoma

So what is everyones thoughts?

I think Menards yellow might have been a better choice than the green, but overall I think it will get TV attention, especially running up front.

Another option would have been to literally have half of the regular Beam Scheme on one side, half Menards on the other like the old BAR cars used to do in with 555 and Lucky Strikes in F1.

Props to RGM either way for thinking outside of the box, and a big thank you to Jim Beam and Menards for stepping up to fund this race.

The 2005 Sonoma Car Was One of My Favorites Ever , Can't Wait To See It ( Up Front ) !

It's different all right.... might take a little while but I can get used to any look that has the #7 and leads the pack.

I don't get why they used green over yellow. We all know the car will be yellow when Menards sponsors it, but not this time.
It's is a good idea, it make me think sponsors are fighting each other to get on the car.

I think the car should've been straight-up half day-glo Menards yellow, half Beam red with the respective logos on each side and then on the hood have a big cougar with "ME" next to it.

JB and Mennard's have been very good to RGM. Perfect time for both to show off who is supporting the best car and driver.
