Tony or Rowdy - who will be "Big Orange" in the Sprint Cup race this week?

Question

rowdy is racing the "combos" paint scheme this week, and it is BRIGHT orange (check out the link below). and as we all know, tony said "the one thing i know about racing is that colorful cars just go faster." and as we further know from the home depot guy who helped tony SOOO much ten years ago, orange says to the world "look at me...i'm fassst!!!"

so tony and rowdy will both be running orange cars this weekend - and right now rowdy is P2 in qualifying (biffle's P1), and stewart currently sits in nineteenth (but he never qualifies all that well). so, again, rowdy is wicked fast as usual, but it is gettin' to be summer, and we all know how much tony likes the heat ("where there's heat, there's fire, and where there's fire, there's smoke"). and he'll be defending his color.

here's a picture of the diecast of the combos car:

the question: who do you think will be "Big Orange" this sunday - tony or rowdy?

Answer 1

One thing I've noticed is, any sponsor on Kyle Busch's car is going to get some good advertising. I bet that M&M sales have actually gone up because of Kyle Busch. I still have visions of Kelloggs Cornflakes getting scattered around the scene in 2007. I'm surprised Dupont hasn't tried to put a paint job on Kyles Toyota. He's NASCARs fastest billboard!

Answer 2

Burton, Ha! You forgot about him didn't you?

I'm standing by my Rowdy!

Answer 3

It will be Tony. The hotter it gets outside the hotter Tony will be on the race track! Tony has gotten almost all of his wins in the Sprint cup series when it is hot and slippery. By the way there is only ONE "Big Orange" and that's TONY!

Answer 4

well i have to say tony because ever since he drove the orange #20 home depot car they refer to him as the BIG ORANGE, just like dale was big red....  i have a shirt that says the big orange is coming.......and on the back it says smoke in big orange letters

p.s. all these orange cars are going to confuse me.... j/k i know tony when i see him

Answer 5

Tony's car is waking up

He dominates the 2nd half of the season

Answer 6

no contest..Rowdy

Answer 7

I am rooting/praying/hoping/crossing my fingers/cheering for Tony.

Answer 8

Since you all said Rowdy I'm gonna say Tony I like you thought about him heating up in the summer and your "where there's heat, there's fire, and where there's fire, there's SMOKE"

Answer 9

One correction there is not an ounce of paint on these cars it is all one big decal. That color scheme has been done before on on a RYR car, I know when Sadler was driving it  because he brought Jimmy Spercer a butt-load of Combo's so he wouldn't whine about no snacks.

There is no doubt that their attention is turned away from Stewart. He is history and will be back with the TRD secrets .next time you see him

Answer 10

Burton's car IS orange--have you never seen it in person??

I like orange, and I heard a long time ago that Dale Jr likes orange, hence his car color for the 2002 Richmond Busch race etc.---but pretty color does not victory lane make. Dale Earnhardt had the best car in history colorwise, his Peter Max scheme at Charlotte in 2000--and DNF'd. My vote goes to the best driver hopefully not on sneaky strategy but good ole track racing!
