History 1991 Daytona 500: Winston Salutes the Troops Panther Racing in the Indy Racing League ran a Pennzoil Platinum paint scheme at selected 2005 IRL events instead of the normal yellow design. However, some sponsors and die-cast makers have advanced the promotion to other codes of motorsport, as Red Bull Racing had a Star Wars paint scheme to promote Revenge of the Sith in Formula One and a similar Superman one to promote Superman Returns. NASCAR's increased media coverage has contributed to their popularity with both fans and sponsors. Their use has historically been largely confined to NASCAR stock car racing, partially due to the much larger surface area of a stock car, and longer season, but have entered the Ind圜ar in a limited fashion. Special paint schemes are one-time or limited time variations on a race car's typical appearance.
