Darlington is no longer being treated as the official ‘Throwback Weekend,’ but there’s still several teams opting to pay tribute to the sport’s history by recreating iconic paint schemes.

Last December, two-time Southern 500 winner Greg Biffle was killed alongside six others in a tragic plane crash. This weekend, there are several paint schemes honoring the NASCAR legend, in both the Cup and O’Reilly Series.
