Since I'm a rather recent and more casual NASCAR fan, I assume that my knowledge of some of the historical or vintage rides is probably more limited than most people here.
In the spirit of all those great Darlington Vintage schemes that keep coming out these days, I wanted to have some fun creating some fictional that would match specific sponsors' colours.

My specific ask is:
-What are the most iconic colour schemes you know, or like that use the following Blue/Orange colour scheme?

Thank you!

No.
McLaren - various
Sunoco - various
Autotrader - penske etc.
Gulf Oil - various
Halfords BTCC - sort of
Jagermeister BMWs - various
Bob Jane's Monaro - kind of
Toll HSV - nearly
Ford Motor Co at Bathurst - officially
Tide rides - various
Matt DiBenedetto's Orange Crush - to a throwback that never actually existed

How's that for a short list.

Nice list!
The Gulf Oil ones are some of my favourite cars ever.

Tide was the first NASCAR one that came to mind too, but there's quite a lot of yellow in it.

Thanks.
There is a lot of nice orange and blue logos in the racing world.

I was leaning towards a GULF-inspired design, but I'm putting it on a Chevy truck, so it feels sacrilegious to do that.

I think I found what I'm going to do: Kenny Schrader tribute.
So Kenny may not have the notoriety of some of the other legends of NASCAR, but the man IS racing.
He's raced in almost 1,000 races between Cup, Busch/Infinity and Trucks.

Considering that Federated Auto Parts share the orange and blue of Raphael Lessard Canac sponsor, expect to see a concept based on the following paint scheme from me this week.
