Ah yes the video we look forward to every year: *Eric’s top ten paint schemes*

Eric: *here a top 10 list...* Me: *I sense a top 10 worst list incoming...* 👀

When someone asks for your favorite paint scheme ran by your favorite driver: Denny Hamlin fan: *They all the same...* 😐

I was kinda surprised that I didn’t see the Busch Light Apple paint scheme in your Top 10. Still, the list looks great.

My favorite NASCAR paint scheme of 2020 is probably Jimmie's Johnson's Ally throwback at Darlington

Jimmie never got that Jimmy johns sponsorship I had always wanted 😥

Disney Pixar Cars was the reason why I got into NASCAR in the first place

Cars got me into NASCAR, God bless Lightning McQueen

Eric: so the SunnyD car is third Everyone: *YOU HAVE BROKEN THE SACRED RULE*

Eric in a few years: "But first I would like to introduce my sponsors today Walmart, Lowe's, McDonald's, Kroger, and Ford."

That Chase Elliott hooters scheme is my favorite

I’m a little late but here’s how I got into NASCAR: My dad loved NASCAR and Jeff Gordon, and so in 2018 We went to the Championship race. He would occasionally put on the races, but I didn't truly get into NASCAR until this season. I half-heartedly rooted for Larson, but after his incident, I sent out to find a real favorite driver. On the first race back, I watched the roster and I found Bell. I didn’t know much about his career, just that he was a rookie, and he became my favorite. Christopher Bell really got me into NASCAR, and I can’t wait for his next season! I was so amazed when I found about Bell’s record for his rookie season in Xfinity...

Like if Eric Estepp should do a top 10 underfunded paint schemes.

The fact that Johnson's Texas 48 wasn't on this is disappointing, but at least you gave him a win this season

Wow Hendrick has some REALLY nice paint schemes every year. I don’t know how they continue to produce lovely cars every year. Bowman had some nice ones this year, the Ally cars were cool too, Elliott with that sweet black Hooters car, and Byron with pretty much all of his. Awesome job over at Hendrick with these paint schemes! 👏👏👏

Part of my childhood was dying Yep it did, thank you JJ

I got introduced by playing heat 5 in quarantine and the paint schemes

The Alex Bowman Planters scheme was my favorite

“Your a nut if you thought I was gonna forget about planters” A quote from Eric Estepps video of when he went looking for all the nascar sponsors in his living area the Alex bowman paint scheme made me think of it

Eric: Were their any good purple schemes? Kyle Busch's Fudge Brownie Scheme: Am I a joke to you?

WHERES MY SMITHFIELD PAINT SCHEME? 🥓

My favourites were: • Ryan Blaney - BodyAmour (Coke Zero 400) • Christopher Bell - Procore (Texas Playoff Race) • Jimmie Johnson - Darlington Throwback • Clint Bowyer - Darlington Throwback • Ricky Stenhouse Jr. - Kroger (Pink) • Denny Hamlin - FedEx • Joey Logano - Pennzoil • Kevin Harvick - Busch Light Apple

Jimmie's silver Ally car and Kyle Busch's zombie car were 2 of my favorites from the season.

0:05 I bought a nascar diecast when I was 5, and I got into the sport and started to watch it.

It's time for that video I've been waiting for

YES!!!!! I’ve been waiting for this. Hope you do the top 10 worst paint schemes.

A number 1 birthday racecar balloon in 2007 or 08 is what got me interested in Nascar. And that's how I became a Truex fan and been one ever since.

Eric picks a Jimmie scheme as his favorite: Me: Smashing the like button

Both Jimmie and Jeff had Silver cars for their final races which both were done well. Same here a part of my childhood dieing with Jimmie riding off into the sunset, well the last few years starting with Gordon in 15' and then Steward and Kenseth and eventually Johnson this year.

First I was a huge McQueen fan, and I loved the videogames. So my dad bought me NASCAR 2011 to step it up a notch, and eventually NASCAR Inside Line got me into the sport.

surprised not to see harvick's Daytona road course car or his apple car on the list, but its a decent list in my opinion.

My favorite was the 2015 Jimmie Johnson red, white, and blue one from Daytona

I remember when I was little I was watching a night race (I forget which one) and when I saw Johnson's blue car, I immediately liked him

My dad has been following Nascar since the early 70’s and my older brother and I have just grown up around it we LOVE IT.

Finally someone else who loved the Bowman Planter's. I couldn't keep my eye off of it

Alex Bowman always has the best paint schemes. I hope that continues with him driving the 48 car

Eric here's my top 10 favorite paint scheme this YEAR ⬇️ 1. Denny Hamlin FedEx playoffs (Texas) 2. Kevin Harvick Busch patriotic 3. Ricky Stenhouse Jr NOS 4. Jimmie Johnson rAlly 5. Kyle Busch Interstate Batteries 6. Alex Bowman Chevy Good JJ tribute 7. Aric Almirola Power Bites 8. Clint Bowyer HAAS 9. Chase Elliott Unifirst (All Star Race) 10. William Byron Axalta Sea Glass

I was born the same year as Cars, so I grew up with that movie. That was enough for 3 year old me to fall in love with the sport!

It was a sponsor event. I got invited to the 2016 Daytona 500, and I had a great time. Ever since, I’ve had the races off every weekend

For me it was you. I watched your series and got interested

I absolutely love the chase Elliott hooters and Austin Dillon bass pro shops, I’m a big fan of black and orange.

Thank you Eric very cool

Big Fan of your Nascar Cup Series, Truck and Xfinity Series plus All racing news

I love all the paint schemes in the top 10 Honourable mentions deserve more coverage though that’s good stuff there tooo

My late father-in-law, Ed, was a big fan, but I paid it little attention until I found myself in a Hooters for the very first time, (Indianapolis, 05 Apr 92), and I saw Alan Kulwicki winning at Bristol. I commented that you had to admire a guy in an orange and white car with Hooters written all over it. I've been a fan ever since.

nice I'll need to see what my top 10 are. I know the Interstate Batteries car is my number 1 for sure though.

Hands down the Blaney Bryant tribute was by far the best paint this year!

i was literally wondering when this video would come out yesterday

Love this list

I’ve been waiting for this

As a kid I was subjected to NASCAR a lot. My late grandpa was a huge Dale Earnhardt fan, my dad would watch races on most weekends, and I was given diecast pretty early on. As a kid my favorite schemes were Matt Kenseth's DeWalt and Jeff Gordon's DuPont Rainbow Warrior (even though he had switched to the flames by the time I was born).

Seeing dale jrs Budweiser 8 car on tv was how i got in to nascar

My favorite from underfunded teams was the #66 darlington

I just saw the M&M car of Kyle Busch when I was 6 in 2008 and I've been a NASCAR fan ever since

That 88 Valvoline should of been #1. It looks so clean and fresh

My dad was on Dariel Deringer's pit crew in the 50s. I was watching Cale, Bobby, David and Richard in 1970.

i love dillons bass pro car. i also liked the all star scheme how they made that scheme work

My uncle was a big nascar fan (Earnhardt fan) through the late 80’s and 90’s. I remember the 98 Daytona 500 and how everyone was so excited. I was 7 and had no clue what had just happened but I was glued. That next year I started racing quarter midgets and developed an expensive hobby for life haha Since then I’ve always followed nascar. I liked the Bowman valvoline scheme and the old Busch paint scheme with the red number.

That Planters car was a timeless classic. That’s a race car!

agreed strongly with the list, a lot of these cars were gorgeous

For me, it was the silver bullet. Sterling Marlin's early 2000s Coors Lite Dodges were AMAZING! I went with my dad when he bought a new Ram in 2001, and the salesman gave 9 year old me a high-quality diecast that I still have :)

Those are some really good schemes. One of my faves not on the list is Martin Truex's SiriusXM Martinsville win. The dark blue and black looked awesome under the lights

That Kenseth McDonald's car was beautiful.

Started out on NASCAR Thunder 2003... The good ole days

9 Hooters machine looked good

Man that JJ Darlington throwback.

I like your top 10 paint schemes

I started watching NASCAR as a young kid randomly when me and my sister switched channels onto a race and I was hooked at the paint schemes as well. I saw the blue deuce driven then in his first year in that car Kurt Busch and he’s been my driver ever since. Sucks I didn’t watch when he won his championship.

I became a NASCAR fan when Montoya hitting the jet dryer was on the news lmao

A little biased because a Bowman fan, but the Planters car was the GOAT of 2020. Also the purpleish Hooters car that Chase Elliott ran (I think it was the Martinsville 2 car) was FIRE

I kinda wish that Nascar would codify the "silver = final race/retiring" idea. It's such a rarely used colour so we wouldn't be taking much from other schemes, and it would be an awesome final rite of passage for drivers. Or at least have the teams come together to make it a thin.

That 2020 Interstate Batteries scheme is my favorite scheme from this year by far.

I'm glad we agree on the number 1

Here’s my story of how I got into nascar. I always loved the movie cars as a little kid, but in the summer of 2015, I turned on the TV. Nascar was on and I was immediately hooked from than till now. Been to 4 races at Dover and 3 races at Pocono and they have been some of the best experiences of my life.

I love that Busch light flag scheme but I also love the baby blue and the apple red Busch schemes. All of them equally great.

That Kenseth Sawblade 2003 paint scheme. LOVED it.

I got into Nascar because of the paint schemes, I fell in love with the rainbow scheme Jeff Gordan drove and became a fan because of it, I was starting to become a great artist at that time and I remember telling my grandfather what "colors" they were driving, my grandfather was a fan of Denny Hamlin, my parents were fans of Dale jr & Jimmie Johnson and I was a fan of Jeff Gordon until he retired and became a Hendrick motorsports fan, meaning becoming a fan of all four drivers.

All the 2007 paint schemes (specifically the bud number 8) got me into nascar, haven’t looked back since

Thanks for the respect Eric. I think my final paint scheme is the best in 2020

I got introduced when I got NASCAR 2011 in 2012, mainly to crash and watch replays. NASCAR Heat 3 got me even more into NASCAR.

I have to give credit to Harvick and Busch beer because they ran some banger schemes this year

I liked his honerable mentions schemes more then his actual top 10! 🤣

The ones I like from your list are Erik Jones’ Dewalt car, Alex Bowman’s Planters Peanuts car, Matt Kenseth’s McDonalds All-Star car, Kevin Harvick’s patriotic Busch Light car, Chase Elliott’s Hooters car, Kyle Busch’s Interstate Batteries car, and Chris Buescher’s SunnyD car.

I liked that Austin Dillon scheme because it reminded me of Dale Earnhardt it looked nice dont blame you for putting it high on the list

Went to college in North Carolina- at parties on fridays and saturdays everyone would be huddled around a tv watching a truck or xfinity race. Quickly realized it was in their blood down there being so invested in the lower levels of NASCAR. Circa 2002 ish

My favorite scheme was the william Byron sea glass scheme he ran at Daytona, under the lights that car was fire

I can't be the only one wanting more clips of Eric aimlessly wandering the woods.

I got interested because my dad watched it and I looked at the tv a lot and I was into hot wheels so it was a perfect storm for me into NASCAR and I haven’t looked back since. Yes!!! Jimmie is my favorite driver still racing so seeing him in number one on the list this is awesome what a way to go out Jimmie we will miss you on Sundays. Just not as much as Jeff Gordon

bowman had some great paint schemes this year tbh. the patriotic noco scheme is beautiful, love the cincinnati scheme, the planters is really nice, all the valvoline schemes, and the acronis ones are really nice too

lol im drinking nos energy drink rn as your saying honorable mentions

I was camping and my dad was watching the 2020 Richmond playoff race. I saw Kurts monster scheme and he's been one of my favorite drivers since, at least until he retired :(

My ranking of these 1. Erik Jones Dewalt - Put this at the top by default from the start, and man I haven't found anything I like better. It's the perfect combination IMO, and if not the best definitely the best that was run more than a few times. Of all his schemes this year there isn't one I wouldn't put up high in this list. 2. Chris Buescher Sunny D - Still pops, still looks great, still has great theming. It's the SunnyD car. 3. Chase Elliott Hooters (Dark) - I agree that when first shown I didn't like it at all, but that matte black with the dayglo orange is one of the best combinations on a racecar. 4. Alex Bowman Planters - Simple but great looking. Sorta reminds me of a well-done throwback car. 5. Austin Dillon Bass Pro Shops - Pretty good, no real complaints but just other things that I like better. 6. Jimmie Johnson Ally (Silver/Final Ride) - Pretty good, but I feel like the contrast between the silver and purple/black just wasn't there, it didn't pop enough. I don't really know why, I just don't love it. 7. Kevin Harvick Busch (4th Of July) - Again pretty good, I feel like it has a bit too much going on and I also don't love the eagle. It is the most American thing you'll ever see though. 8. Matt Kenseth McDonalds (All-Star) - Way too much white, and I still don't love the arches going off the car. It's fine on some schemes but looks pretty bad on this. I do like the way they incorporated the set-back number though. 9. Kyle Busch Interstate Batteries - Looks cheesy, the smaller sponsor logos in solid colors on it (like M&Ms) are really annoying, why are there two Interstate logos on the hood. 10. Brad Keselowski Discount Tire - It'd be... fine... But the grey fading above the red line irrationally drives me nuts for endless reasons. Get rid of that and it might be like a 8 but with that it's a definite no.

I got all of that wave at Walmart with the Elliot hooters truck

I am active military....USMC stationed in Washington DC. The fall of 2008 (The Chase). My son was interested in NASCAR at the time, but I’d never given it much attention before. Then an announcement at work....the USO had a block of tickets to Dover for free. So I thought my boys would enjoy the race. The seats were good too!! End zone and about 22 rows up...not too close, not too far....we could easily see the entire track. Well, I was hooked. Started following it week to week after that. Then came 2009 and Mark Martin’s resurgence with Rick Hendricks and ending in JJ’s 4th in a row. Still hooked despite the stupid playoff format. Really wishing NASCAR would back off and let ‘em race. And I’m a relative newcomer to the sport. I can’t imagine what older, more traditional fans would say.

I literally started liking Kyle Busch in 2011 because he had the M and M car. When I grew up and started to know about the sport I love Kyle for his talent!

To address the question at the beginning of the video, yes I began to watch around 2002-2003 because my dad would have the race on every Sunday, and one Sunday I had nothing to do. So I decided to watch it with him, and realized that I enjoyed it very much. Ever since that day, I have only missed races because of family or work.

I got into NASCAR in 2013, turning on the tv to the Daytona 500. At the time the only driver I heard of was Danica Patrick. Over time I watched a few more races, and watching Kyle Busch win the Texas race under the lights with the White, Black, and Green Interstate Batteries car made me stick. I found a new favorite driver who had great talent, and amazing cars.

I just always loved cars so when I first saw a race on tv I was hooked lmao

My top 10 of the 2020 season: 10. Brad Keselowski's Discount Tire throwback 9. Alex Bowman Valvoline 8. Chris Buescher Sunny-D 7.Bubba wallace air force 6. Kyle Busch red white and blue m&m's 5. Chase Elliott Black and orange hooters 4. joey logano AAA SoCal 3. Ryan Blaney Kobe bryant 2. Kevin harvick busch apple 1. kevin harvick 4th of july

I got introduced to NASCAR when I first saw the #29 Shell car win at the Daytona 500 in 2007, eventually I found out that the car was driven by a man named Kevin Harvick, and I've been a fan ever since.
