I don't know how you can have a discussion about the best-looking orange racecars and NOT include this one in one of the first posts.

I have a feeling it looks better in person, orange is one of those autobody colours that are hard to really show in photographs. Trust me, I've had to colour correct many car photos for PPG in the past. Penske Day-Glo Red is a good example of the colour not producing well in photographs.
It is a black/orange scheme but its still the best lookin orange car ever..

Matt, you may be right, and I hope so, but if you look at the orange on the Novo Pen photo, Kimball's car appears to be the same hue which is a dulled tinted orange. I loved the orange on Dan's car last year, and I agree with others that it's livery is one of my all time favorites. I think the Novo orange would be better trimming the blue, instead of being the primary color.
God speed!

Well I honestly think this was one of the best looking previous generation dallaras.
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security
So this became an orange thread!?

It IS orange, I don't care if it says "Yellow".
Yellow commissioned DuPont to determine what color was most visible from the greatest distance for the fleet. After careful research, DuPont presented a color, dubbed "Swamp Holly Orange." And so the company named Yellow had an official color-orange-the safest color on the road.

Admit Nothing, Deny Everything
I might be mistaken, but wasn't the 98 car at last years Indy 500 a joint effort between Herta and Schmidt, and I thought William Rast was a Schmidt sponsor?
If I'm right on this, we might see the William Rast paint scheme back on a seconded Schmidt car for the 500!
My mistake, I forgot about Saavedra having that sponsorship with Herta!
