Same Ride, New Color
The silver No. 84 that’s been shining in Red Bull Racing Team’s shop unloads for the first time Friday at Talladega, and AJ Allmendinger, who returns after a five-race layoff, can’t wait to show off his car’s new look.
“I think it’s sweet,” Allmendinger said. “Our blue has been good, but it’s one of those things that says, ‘I’m back!’ It’s silver. It’s going to stand out. It’s going to look fast, and it’s going to be fast.”
In 2007, Red Bull’s motorsports branding featured dynamic bulls, suns and custom deep blue color. More than a year later, the design is expanding with the silver No. 84. The car maintains the same styling cues as the No. 83 to ensure close affiliation but carries a metallic silver pearl base and blue number to create its own identity and personality.
“Some would call it a mirrored aluminum silver. Some would call it a titanium finish,” said Marty Briggs, the paint shop manager. “We would just have to call it bad ass.”

Sweet! Now I won't have any trouble spot BV and AJ now that their two different colors. Good Luck this weekend AJ!
Lookin good!!!
Still like BV's paint scheme the best but the silver does look good! Hopefully we will see both cars upfront this weekend.
siiiick. you will spot that car in the pack so easy now. it's smoking hot.
That is so sweet looking. The only thing now is if BV were to go to the white letters and splitter rather then the yellow. I always thought that AJ's car looked better. I hope we can get the new car as a diecast sometime soon....
That looks awesome! I really like it!
That is a bad-ass paint job! That would make an awesome die cast. Welcome back AJ Shake and Bake!!
That's a great looking car - verrrry niiice. Welcome back AJ. We're all pulling for ya, buddy. Go get 'em boys!
Love the paint scheme. Can't wait to see it on the track.
I love it!!! Even more than the blue! Good luck this weekend!
AJ now has silver wings ;)
I love the new color! Now we can tell the two RB cars apart on the track. Super excited that AJ is back in the car this weekend. Hope he has a great race and im sure his team is glad to have him back!
46 cars on entry list. smooth paint scheme! but i really see BV in that car and AJ in the other
Is silver going to be the color all the time or just for a race or two?
I love it! Good Luck AJ on getting it in the race, glad your back!
Good luck this weekend boys!! Love the new paint scheme. Maybe it will make it's way to the front. Go get'em AJ!! We are all so happy that you are back in the car where you should be!!
Just wanted to let everyone know that BV will be in the May NASCAR Illustrated. They did an article about him, and his experiences off the track.
That car is very sweet. Here's hoping AJ and Brian have good runs at Dega!
just a reminder: BV will be on Trackside this week at Talladega. and I think TrackPass on NASCAR.com is free this week, there's a small add in the middle of the home page.. I hope it is, because I can't sign up for a membership, I live in the Caribbeans.
On race2win.com it says the 84 will be running the silver scheme the rest of the year.
Just so everyone knows...race2win.com is an advertising site not a real race site. Another spammer!
Actually, I think 83fanatic ment to say race2win.net. That is a race site.
Red Bull is being ivestigated for fraud. They ripped off 100's of investors for over 20 million dollars. Just wanted you all to know how F**ked up this Austrian company really is. Check this site
