Jimmie Johnson will drive the #48 Lowes ‘Patriotic” Chevrolet SS in the Sprint All-Star Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The car will be painted red, white and blue and ringed in stars. Lowes and its #48 team have a long history of supporting the military and honoring the nation over the years. In 2001, Johnsons first Sprint Cup race came at Charlotte in the Lowes Chevrolet, which was specially painted to honor the country. In 2009, crew chief Chad Knaus helped create a patriotic-themed car that carried the names of more than 12,000 Lowes employees who are military veterans or reservists.(Team Lowes / HMS), see an image of the scheme on the #48 Team Schemes page .
