The No. 24 blue-with-red flames paint scheme is back.

For this year’s Darlington Throwback race, William Byron will wheel a 2007 Jeff Gordon throwback paint scheme that features one of the four-time champion’s iconic looks.

The scheme pays homage to the day that Gordon tied Dale Earnhardt on NASCAR’s all-time wins list by winning at Phoenix to capture his 76th career victory.

Byron is NASCAR’s only two-time winner so far this season as the cars head to Talladega for their next race of the year on Sunday.
