NASCAR: 23XI Racing Unveils Red and White Color Scheme, and Fans Go Off
10/30/2020 12:07 pm EDT
23XI Racing hasn't announced sponsors ahead of the 2021 season, a fact that created irritation among some fans when the reveal took place. They proclaimed that the car would not remain red and white once several sponsors jumped on board. These fans wondered if the car would be green, blue, purple or a variety of other colors throughout the season. Wallace's No. 43 Richard Petty Motorsports Chevrolet Camaro changed colors throughout 2020, and fans expected a similar trend with the new team.
Every time a NASCAR team announces a new paint scheme, fans began asking about available merchandise. They say that they want to purchase hats, posters and miniature diecast models of the cars to proudly display in their homes. This trend continued on Friday when the red and white model surfaced. Fans continued pleading with 23XI to start taking orders in order to beat the holiday rush.
When Jordan became a prominent part of the racing team, fans began expressing hope that elements of the Chicago Bulls brand would find their way into the car design. 23XI Racing sparked excitement among the fans with the revelation of a white, red and black car. However, a few people took issue with certain elements of the design. They wanted the car to go "full Bulls" instead of just using the paint scheme.
While some fans have expressed their displeasure with the Toyota teams over the years, others are big fans. They regularly proclaim adoration for the car designs, especially when comparing them to the Ford Mustangs and Chevrolet Camaros. These fans continued to praise the Toyota teams on Friday after seeing the new design.
Many fans expressed their excitement for the design on Friday after watching CBS This Morning. They proclaimed that the design was "incredible" while expressing hope about specific details. Many said that they wanted Jordan's iconic logo prominently featured. Hamlin has the Jordan logo on his firesuit, so fans expressed hope that this would continue to be the case with the paint scheme. Would there be a larger-than-life version used on the side or front of Wallace's stock car?
While many fans proclaimed that the paint scheme will change when 23XI Racing adds sponsors, others took a different approach. They said that the team would find sponsors to fit the design. Some Twitter users went even further and said that Wallace is already set up considering that he drove a red and white DoorDash car for part of the 2020 season.
When Jordan, Hamlin and Wallace announced the creation of 23XI Racing, the hype level among fans went through the proverbial roof. Many proclaimed that Wallace would win the first Cup Series race of his career now that he has "quality equipment." Others said that the team is overrated and asked why there is so much attention being placed on the new organization.
