“Huge W” – NASCAR Fans Sent Into a Frenzy After Jimmie Johnson’s Team Announces Partnership With Legendary Band

NASCAR liveries hold a special place in everyone’s heart. However, wouldn’t it be just out of the ballpark to have the insignia of a legendary band on your car? That is exactly what was recently announced. Jimmie Johnson‘s team released a short clip of Erik Jones‘s car with a rather unexpected livery.

The video presented by the team blasted the iconic voice of Axl Rose singing, “Welcome to the jungle.” That’s right, Legacy Motorsports have partnered up with none other than Guns n’ Roses. They were more than just a band, they were a cultural force that embodied the frustration and angst of an entire generation.

Their unique sound, rebellious image, and high-energy live performances made them one of the biggest bands of their era. From iconic songs like “Sweet Child of Mine” to “November Rain,” GnR has been one of the most iconic and inspirational bands in history.

However, today’s GnR has nothing to do with the 80s and 90s powerhouse band. Brought down a fraction of what it used to be. It also saw several lineup changes. The withdrawal of Slash in the late 90s brought the once-revered band to a fraction of its glory days.

Although most of its members aren’t the original guys, Axl Rose continues to power through with his unique one-in-a-million vocal range. But their old gems continue to live on in the hearts and minds of fans across the planet.
