The No. 34 Front Row Motorsports (FRM) Ford Mustang will run a special paint scheme for the \u201cBojangles\u2019 Southern 500\u201d NASCAR Throwback weekend at Darlington Raceway, honoring Jimmy Means\u2019 No. 52 Alka-Seltzer Pontiac. Means drove the iconic powder blue car in the late 1980s and early 1990s.<\/p>\n
In its early days, Front Row Motorsports was originally known as Means-Jenkins Motorsports, stemming from a partnership between Means and current FRM team owner Bob Jenkins. Their relationship began with Jenkins sponsoring Means at Bristol with his local Taco Bell franchise, which led Jenkins to a partial ownership of Means\u2019 race team. The team was active for one year before Jenkins separated and founded Front Row Motorsports.<\/p>\n
McDowell\u2019s No. 34 Ford will feature the famous light blue body with red and dark blue accents. FRM partner Dockside Logistics will serve as the primary sponsor for the race.<\/p>\n
\u201cThrowback weekend at Darlington is one of my favorites of the whole year,\u201d McDowell said. \u201cIt\u2019s fun to recreate some of the most well-known paint schemes throughout the history of our sport. Our owner, Bob Jenkins, has always admired Jimmy Means, and the Alka-Seltzer car is definitely a favorite of his. I\u2019m really excited that we can honor their friendship with our No. 34 Dockside Logistics Ford.\u201d<\/p>\n
The No. 34 \u201cJimmy Means Throwback\u201d Ford Mustang will make its debut at Darlington Raceway on Friday, August 30 for practice. The \u201cBojanges\u2019 Southern 500\u201d Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race airs Sunday, September 1 at 6 p.m. ET on NBCSN and MRN.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
