2012 Sprint Cup - #47

[SlicedSmoke14]

Not the best image of the car, but its the only one I could find at this point.

3268

(NOTE: I decided to crop the original photo since 90% of the photo was the wall and carpet.)

[ryan78]

Is is the same as last years scheme? Looks like it?

[champkarter1]

(As posted in my racing discussion topic) Kroger, USO, and Bubba Burger will also be sponsors this year, so I would expect some images or renders of those cars soon

[ryan78]

LOL ^^ but what does this have to do with Bobby Labonte's 2012 Scheme?? :P

all :)

[ElvisOnFire]

all :)

Good... Good...

[champkarter1]

Maybe sterla is eluding to Bobby picking up an Italian based sponsor that will help him stop quickly in those foggy conditions??????

[elliott21fan]

Or having foglights would help him through that field...

[Legacyofthe24]

no guys you're all wrong. those are the little green men landing and he had to make sure he got a pic of it duh.

[cwh81]

Bubba Burger Car

[mdterrapins37]

Nice!

[max72]

Great car!!!!!

[skippy88]

i see Charter Communications, DMTG Ingersoll, and Sullivan Palatek

not sure what the white logo is below Charter...

[Josh O'Brien]

Wow, never thought I'd like a car with "real" flames on it, but that looks great! :tup:

[max72]

is similar to #02 Brandon Ash Car

[Stevie Richards]

Fake flames may be overdone, but I think "real" flames look retarded.

[Matito29]

Fake flames may be overdone, but I think "real" flames look retarded.

I don't think they look terrible, but if you don't focus, it just looks like an orange to black fade.

[JR90]

Flames fit the sponsor in this case. :tup:

Fake flames are tacky, which they avoided.

[champkarter1]

I'd think the numbers would better reversed (orange/white instead of white/orange)

Phoenix:

[abharkl]

The change to the back of the design is an improvemnt imo.

[ryan29]

This car looks so bland without the chrome wheels.

[burtonbraves]

I like it better without the chrome wheels actually.

[nascarartist20]

I love how they've been using the correct shading decals this year. Makes the car look a lot better.

[WWEFan14]

not sure what the white logo is below Charter...

Skippy, I believe that the white logo on the very bottom is SEM.

[nwt0]

I think I also see Luke & Associates on the B-Pillar.

[abharkl]

Here you go.

[abharkl]

Yeah for that one the b-pillar is in this order

Toyota
BUSH's
Coke
Sullivan
LUKE

[burtonbraves]

I don't know why, but this is one of my favorite looking cars for this weekend.

[gr8eske1]

This one looks better than the previous 2 attempts with this sponsor and color combo with the 43 last week and the 11 last year.

[kaseykahnego4]

Does anybody know WHY charter is everywhere (11, 43, and 47)? I don't get it...just because they can?

[RobbyFan]

Whatever works in their general marketing budget I suppose.

[CJMearsGang13]

With Luke being on the b-pillars, I wonder if ole Geoff is the future of a second car for this team...

[ryan78]

This one looks better than the previous 2 attempts with this sponsor and color combo with the 43 last week and the 11 last year.

Actually, last week the 43 Charter base was a little different. The Green went from the hood all the way across to the end of the window right before the B-Pillar before swooping down into the design & also the petty swooshes. The 47 car this week is the roughly the same as the 11 car was last year, the green went a little lower on the 11 & also the spoiler and splitter where black. Not a whole lot of differences. I hope Charter continues to sponsor more cars, i've always loved those schemes, the colours look awesome together on a race car!

I like that they are using black find now

Las Vegas (basically identical to the Phoenix car, except the Bush's Baked Beans/Scott logos were swapped around):

[Avi24]

Will run from Charlotte to Daytona apparently.

[ElvisOnFire]

Nice, subtle touch :tup:

[OverKill0421]

Uh-oh... I see 3 stripes.... nobody tell Teresa

[gr8eske1]

Press release today says Bobby will be running the patriotic scheme at Charlotte in May

New Hampshire

[sterla]

bad

[Richard Hammond]

At first, I thought it said Nuke.

[RobbyFan]

Sort of a sideways move for Luke there.

[ElvisOnFire]

Geoffery Bodine dislikes this, but nice to see LUKE on a car that might actually run decent.

[elliott21fan]

Geoffery Bodine dislikes this

Dang... you beat me to it :( Bobby's been good on the tracks that require less HP from engines, might be a decent week for him, top 15-20 possibly.

I have a good feeling he's gonna have a good run :)

You guys will have fun with this

[pdas1996]

At first I didn't know what was goin' on, but now I understand.

[nascarartist20]

Holy vinyl overlappage batman.

[Phathead]

Holy vinyl overlappage batman.

Yeah, it was actually worse on the TV panel as you could see two sets of logos under the current wrap

[ElvisOnFire]

I dislike it when they put the numbers on and it leaves a noticeable seam in the number

Martinsville II

[Lastlap]

Nice fresh look.

[SlicedSmoke14]

Kind of a lazy paint scheme, if you ask me.

Really thought it would be like Jon Wood's Pine-Sol car in the Busch Series way back in 2005.

[pdas1996]

Nice fresh look.

I see what you did there.

[Stevie Richards]

I haven't used Pine Sol since Bobby Labonte did something other than ride around collecting a paycheck.

[David24]

You haven't cleaned your floors since 2005?

[ElvisOnFire]

You haven't cleaned your floors since 2005?

"This floor feels crunchy"

[Stevie Richards]

You haven't cleaned your floors since 2005?

You spelled "2003" wrong.

Also, who needs the power of Pine Sol when you have Swiffer mops?

Guess it's running this weekend?

[ElvisOnFire]

The Phoenix entry list has that sponsor listed, so I'd say yes

[nwt0]

[gr8eske1]

I liked the render version better with Vektor on the QP

[RedLineRacing4]

I like the real car better.

[skippy88]

really nice color combo... i like the concept behind JTG's schemes, changing the two front colors for each primary sponsor... i just wish it wasn't such a cluster on the back QP's.....

(that and they desperately need to bring the design down to the skirts)
