No. 24 Chevrolet: Chase Elliott

That still is going to take time to get used to saying. That’s right, that famous No. 24 will now be driven by young gun Chase Elliott. With this driver change comes with some new sponsorship to the 24 team. NAPA, the primary sponsor for Elliott in the Xfinity Series has stuck with him for his transition to the Sprint Cup Series. The blue-and-yellow NAPA colors will be featured on the No. 24 in 24 races in 2016. Additional sponsors include one of Jeff Gordon’s previous sponsors, 3M (5 races), but also a few new sponsors in Kelley Blue Book and Mountain Dew, which will be the primary sponsor for 2 races, respectively. It will be interesting to see if Elliott will succeed in 2016, but it can be assured he will have a great team and some great sponsors behind him for years to come. Here are the paint schemes we will see on the No. 24 car in 2016:
