NASCAR Driver Has 'Incredible' Hulk Hogan Paint Scheme For Sunday's Race originally appeared on The Spun.
It's hard to understate how much of an influence wrestling legend Hulk Hogan had on America prior to his passing. That influence will be felt at the upcoming NASCAR weekend.
Ahead of this week's races at Watkins Glen, NASCAR driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr.'s Hyak Motorsports team announced that he will be sporting a special Hulk Hogan-themed paint job on his No. 47 Chevrolet to pay tribute to the wrestling legend, per TMZ Sports. The paint job will feature the red, white and blue Real American Beer paint job – Hogan's beloved beer brand – and a "HULKAMANIA Forever" decal.
Hogan's Real American Beer Brand previously partnered with Stenhouse and Hyak on a paint job back in June. The company's co-founder Chad Bronstein said in a statement that they are "grateful" to Hyak for honoring Hogan as they work to "carry on Hulk's legacy."
"Hulk built Hulkamania and Real American Beer with strength, pride and resilience — for the fans, for their communities, for our country," Bronstein said. "Real American Beer is here to carry on Hulk’s legacy. We're grateful to Hyak for helping us honor him and carry his commitment to his fans forward."

Hogan had partnered with NASCAR for a number of events during his storied career in sports entertainment. He was a grand marshal for several NASCAR races throughout his life.
So when he got the opportunity to put his brand on a car, he was thrilled by it:
"Brother, Michigan knows how to go full throttle—and so does Real American Beer. We're back on the track, back in the fight, and there's no better time to crack one open and let it rip," Hogan said back in June when the partnership with Stenhouse was first announced.
Real American Beer CEO Terry Francis said at the time that he was thrilled for the partnership too.
"Motorsports fans have been some of our loudest supporters from day one. This partnership is part of our strategy to meet them where they are—on the road, in the stands and in the beer aisle."
Hogan passed away several weeks ago after suffering a heart attack.
