Not sure you’re joking or not so I’ll explain what I know about it just in case.
The wife and I were nascar fans back in the day when Jeff Gordon drove that car.
The “Rainbow Warrior” nickname came about from the paint scheme on the car to tout how many colors were available from Dupont paints.....which was the teams’ primary sponsor.
The nasty rumor that Gordon and or his team were gay came mostly from fans of other drivers that didn’t like him.....mostly because at that time he was a dominant driver.
