A return to Kansas Speedway for the Hollywood Casino 400 should provide great racing and great paint schemes as well. The NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs continue. We had one of the best races of the season go down in the spring at this track. What will postseason implications create this week?

While the action on the track is important, we are here to talk about the best looks of the week. There are a number of new schemes that will be sure to stand out during the race. There isn’t any theme this week, we’ve just got a handful of really good cars to show you.

From Richard Childress Racing to 23XI, we’ve got a mix of NASCAR Playoffs drivers and some non-playoff competitors. It is going to be a fun weekend featuring all three national series at Kansas. The playoffs are here and there is also football to watch. We are in the best time of the year, folks.

Best paint schemes for Hollywood Casino 400

Kyle Busch – Casey’s General Store Chevy
Another c-store look from Kyle Busch and Richard Childress Racing. The No. 8 car is going to look really tasty with Casey’s onboard. I love the pizza on the fender and it makes me think of my days at college in Terre Haute. 8/10, no pun intended.

Aric Almirola – Smithfield/Whataburger Ford
This is a car sure to make you hungry. Smithfield Bacon and Whataburger are teaming up for this Almirola look. This is the best the 10 car has looked since the Ford Performance scheme earlier this season. Fast food makes for fast race cars, right? 7.5/10.

Harrison Burton – Menards/MasterForce Ford
Menards and MasterForce tools teamed up for what is my favorite Harrison Burton alternative scheme this season. Nothing will really ever beat the regular Wood Brothers red and white schemes that they run week in and out. I like the dark green with the bright yellow on the numbers. 8.5/10.

Bubba Wallace – Columbia Sportswear Toyota
A little bit of gold and black for Bubba Wallace on this Columbia Sportswear scheme for his repeat attempt in the Hollywood Casino 400. A nod to their Omni-Heat Infinity product that apparently keeps you warmer. Whatever the gold apparently does on the jackets, it just makes this car look cool. I just need Columbia to use the available space on the “doors” better. 8/10.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. – Dillons/NOS Energy Drink Chevy
There are few paint schemes that are as pleasing to look at as NOS Energy. Ricky Stenhouse Jr. has a close relationship with the company and they are back on board his No. 47 this weekend along with Dillons grocery stores. 9/10 and my favorite look of the week. An iconic motorsports brand.
