Today's Community Question: What is the best race car paint scheme of all time?
Paint schemes can make or break the aesthetics of a racing car. Ultimately they need to compliment the lines of the machine, look great from a distance, and stand the test of time. The Honda RA107 with its overly fussy ‘globe’ livery is an example of how not to do it.

The Honda RA107 with its overly fussy ‘globe’ livery is an example of how not to do it. On television and in pictures the colours of the world just blended into an indistinguishable mess; not surprising it was dropped after only one year.
Personally, my favourite livery is the Martini Racing stripes. They look perfect on everything from Formula 1 cars of the 1970s to modern day Porsche GT3s.
But we want to know, what do you guys think is the best racing livery all time. Let us know in the comments below!

Just got a Seat Ibiza as a project.
Going lower, mud flaps, Martini livery, and slightly louder.

BMW M-Livery or the classic Gulf Livery
This

The Gulf Racing GT40
The crazy Panoz LMP-1 “Spirit Of America” livery.

Always loved it
