Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s No. 88 Mountain Dew Chevrolet is turning blue for the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race on May 13 at Kansas Speedway.
Earnhardt and Hendrick Motorsports unveiled the new patriotic paint scheme Thursday, which will feature a new promotion just in time for summer, Mountain Dew DEW-S-A.

JR is picking up his game this year. I predict a good finish.
Braking Newz?
BFD
I was thinking “Mt. Dew South America”?!?? But no, more like “DewSA, DewSA, DewSA” for the 4th of July. See:

“Earnhardt and Hendrick Motorsports unveiled the new patriotic paint scheme Thursday...”
Patriotic indeed.
Without Mountain Dew and Monster Energy Drinks, the Founders could have never pulled that all nighter and written the Declaration of Independence.
It’s about time someone came up with a new paint scheme for Kansas. Kansas has been flat as long as I can remember.
Been waiting for him to get some momentum. Hopefully he has a great race this weekend. Go Junior!
We’ll see.
Miss the group but stay’ outa trouble. For the time being anyway.
The whole state? That’s a lot of paint.
Not so much, really. Just paint one acre of corn and then copy paste it all over the state.
It’s not like anyone would notice.
“...In other news, the governor of Nebraska apologized for his state being so flat...”
So I asked the sales girl with blue hair if we could put a hundred euros on it and come back next wee. She told me that was not necessary because they had plenty in the back.
Of course a week later they were all out. I took my daughter to management and said look here, we come to by a bicycle and now my kid is crying.
They apologized and said the blue hair girl is a trainee and totally was wrong. I asked if they have another store and turns out they have others across Germany. I asked if they could look if they have the bicycle and I would pay shipping. They looked and there were 7 left in Germany. I put 10 euros on one in Munich and it came a week later.
I told my daughter it might not be the same color and if she did not like it then we would keep looking. But the bike came and it was the same color, Thank God. She was so happy.
I was happy they didn't charge me shipping.
I thought he retired last year? I remember Jeff Gordon and Bobby Labonte racing for him

Dale Jr. sat out what started as a couple of races and ended up being the rest of the year recovering from a concussion situation. It was very important he totally recover from the concussion(s) before he got back on the track & risked another one. With his concussion history, if he gets concussed again, I think he’ll retire. Here’s an excellent article on it at the link:

I could suggest some areas in the Southeastern part that could use a painting.
In the winter, the roads pictured in “Fargo” looked better.
Why are they painting Kansas?
