CONCORD, N.C. - Life in NASCAR moves fast. Not long after the checkered flag fell over Martinsville Speedway on Sunday afternoon, teams across the sport were already looking ahead.
Coincidentally, the sport will look back as part of "Throwback Weekend" festivities at Darlington Raceway this week. With events scheduled in the NASCAR Cup Series and Xfinity Series, cars in both races will adorn throwback paint schemes, dedicated to liveries of the past.
Certainly, the weekend will be an aesthetically pleasing sight, especially for those nostalgic for NASCAR racing of the past. Hendrick Motorsports unveiled all four of its throwback schemes last week. And in addition to the schemes, Darlington is usually reliable for some great racing as well.
Here's a look at next week's schedule:
