David Starr and SS GreenLight Racing will pay tribute to team owner and former NASCAR competitor Bobby Dotter with the 1995 #08 Hyde Tools scheme during the Official Throwback Weekend of NASCAR at Darlington Raceway.
“I was a fan of Bobby’s before I made it to NASCAR in 1998 and the #08 Hyde Tool car always stuck out to me,” said Starr. “I am proud to be able to honor our team owner with our #08 TicketSmarter Ford Mustang during the Throwback Weekend.”
Starr’s Ford Mustang will showcase his sponsors, TicketSmarter, a Digital Ally Company (NASDAQ: DGLY), as well as EVERFI, Digital Ally, Inc., Parker Electric, and Children’s National.
Dotter became an owner/driver in 1995 after purchasing Team R Racing at the end of the 1994 racing season. The new team quickly took on Hyde Tools as their primary sponsor in 1995 in the Busch Grand National Series.
“The #08 car this year reminded me a lot of my car in 1995 with the blue and white so it will be neat to see a replica car on the track at Darlington,” Dotter said.
The Throwback Paint Scheme Fan Vote for the Xfinity Series is open today through Thursday, May 5 at 5 p.m. ET at www.darlingtonraceway.com/throwback. The Mahindra ROXOR 200 is at 1:30 p.m. ET at Darlington Raceway and televised on FS1.
