The NASCAR Cup Series is racing once again this weekend! Richmond Raceway hosts the return with the Cook Out 400. These paint schemes are what we need as the two-week break finally ends.

Congratulations, you have made it through the Olympic break. It was been a fun two weeks of sports on the international stage, but it’s time to get back to American stock car racing.

With the two weeks off, the Cook Out 400 will be a welcomed sight. The last time NASCAR was at Richmond, it ended in a controversial Denny Hamlin victory. You will notice he pops up on our list this week.

Ross Chastain No. 1 Jockey Infinite Cool Chevy

Trackhouse Racing knows how to market. That includes this Jockey underwear scheme that shows off Ross Chastain and his figure on the side of the car.

Chastain has not won a race this season, and he is hoping to get that done before the playoffs. In fact, if Chastain doesn’t race to a high standard, he could miss the playoffs completely on points. 8/10.

Austin Dillon No. 3 Bass Pro Shops Chevy

A big camo car with the No. 3 on the side? That is enough to excite most NASCAR fans. Austin Dillon has a fun paint scheme this week.

HUNTING SALE on the side will get plenty of eyeballs. Dillon is hoping to have some kind of positive takeaway this week. His season has not gone well. 8/10.

Josh Berry No. 4 P&G Supports Our Military Ford

A salute to the military, courtesy of P&G. Josh Berry has a job next year at Wood Brothers Racing. Until then, he’s in a hotly contested Rookie of the Year battle.

This patriotic paint scheme will delight many fans. It’s a good-looking car heading to a track Berry enjoys racing at. 8.5/10.

Kyle Busch No. 8 Cheddar’s Patriotic Chevy

Good news for RCR, they have two cars on our Cook Out 400 paint schemes list! Now if only that was possible to turn into top-5 finishes or even wins.

Kyle Busch is in a must-win position or he will miss the postseason. There are four weeks to get a checkered flag, can he do it? 7.5/10.

Chase Elliott No. 9 Coca-Cola Chevy

No Hooters, no problem! Chase Elliott is bringing this beautiful Coca-Cola scheme to the Cook Out 400. This is an iconic-looking car.

Elliott also has associate sponsorship from Slim Chickens, didn’t take long to get another chicken partner. Fantastic car. 10/10.

Denny Hamlin No. 11 FedEx Rewards Toyota

Now there is the FedEx car! Denny Hamlin is not in these colors as often as he has been in the past, but it’s great to see them at the track.

The stars on the car look a bit cheap. Maybe it looks better on the real car, but this isn’t the best execution. Can Hamlin sweep Richmond at the Cook Out 400? 7/10.

Ryan Blaney No. 12 BodyArmor Sport Water Ford

A great car for the night race at Richmond. This black and white BodyArmor Ford will look awesome under the lights.

The defending champion is starting to hit his stride at the right time. He is going to look great in this car, too. 9/10.

Daniel Suárez No. 99 Choice Privileges Chevy

Another scheme made for the night race, this No. 99 Choice Privileges car will be one fans love to watch. Daniel Suárez is fresh off his wedding and solid showing in NASCAR Brasil.

Trackhouse Racing has two great cars on the track this weekend for the Cook Out 400. Will either of them be able to win the race? 8.5/10.
