Throwback Weekend, officially established at Darlington in 2015, has been used as a way to honor the history of NASCAR through special paint schemes and liveries inspired by the sport's past. It's expanded to include everything from 'throwback' commentators in the booth and old-school logos on the Goodyear tires.
Some years have had themes, focusing on specific decades, but most years, teams and drivers just did whatever they liked. While many honor the history of NASCAR, others take on a more personal nature or branch out into throwbacks to race cars outside of stock car racing. Drivers have even joined in on the fun with wigs and mustaches to match the driver they were paying tribute to. But it seems like with every year that passes, fewer and fewer teams are taking part.
