Tobacco liveries are almost always dope as hell.

(HVF does not support the use of tobacco, he does however think their marketing team know their shit)

A thing I did not know until right nw is that Subaru’s blue and yellow livery is actually because of a tobacco sponsorship and went from there.

Might be common knowledge?

This thread is now on edge.

And of course, if you’re going to talk about tobacco liveries, you cannot forget the granddaddy of them all.

I’ve always sort of known it was a tobacco company but have never actually seen or heard of them outside of Subaru

I didn’t know, either. I thought 555 was like Sankei 555, the Japanese suspen sion parts brand

If these are dope then one idly wonders what the medicinal cannabis industry could come up with in the world of race car livery...

Been done, and for Formula Drift, because of course

kinda tame as far as FD liveries go. In NASCAR, Veedverks sponsored Carl Long (NASCAR tried to stop it though). The livery is decidedly awesome, if predictable.

Can't decide whether that's dope or just another weed...

Yep, and its sister brand, Lucky Strike, from British American Tabac co.

Was the main sponsor of BAR [British American Racing] Honda F1

When I was a dumb unhealthy 20something, Newport Mediums were my brand. But, if I needed to scrimp and save, I’d rock the buy-2-get-1 packs of Kool Milds. I got a call center job working a 3:30 to midnight shift, and after work I’d meet a friend at this one Denny’s that had a fully enclosed smoking section even though this was like 2005, and have late night burgers and shakes and smoke like half a pack of those Kools while I was there.

Man, I was a fucking glutton.

It goes back even further than that- As far as I know the Gold Leaf Lotus 49 was the first ever “ sponsor” livery. Gold leaf were a brand of cigarettes owned by John Pl ayer
