"Two artists crushed it" - Jimmie Johnson gushes over special Indianapolis paint scheme designed by his daughters

Legacy Motor Club co-owner Jimmie Johnson will make a special return to the Brickyard 400 this season, sporting a one-of-a-kind paint scheme designed by his daughters in celebration of Father's Day weekend.

Johnson's #84 Toyota Camry XSE will adorn a heartwarming livery designed by his two daughters, 13-year-old Genevieve, and 11-year-old Lydia. The seven-time champion will showcase this unique design at the Brickyard 400, held at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, on July 21.

After taking a first glance at the colorful livery, Jimmie Johnson was thrilled, remarking that both "artists" had aced their job. The 48-year-old NASCAR Hall of Famer added that his family is closest to him, and their involvement in creating the livery made the occasion special.

"Looking at the paint scheme for the first time. I'm so thrilled, the two artists crushed it...With the emotional attachment, this is the top of the list. My family is everything for me. Their involvement to create this paint scheme is quite special, I can't wait to drive this car," he said.

Jimmie Johnson's #84 Toyota Camry XSE will have Carvana on board as the primary sponsor for the Brickyard 400. The paint scheme features a dark blue base color, with multiple colorful doodles adorning different panels of the Camry.

The doodles include an adorable family portrait represented by stick figures, along with their family's Jack Russell Terrier, “Charlie Meatball”. Johnson's favorite dessert, an ice cream sundae, and a lemonade stand are also part of the adorable paint scheme.

The back bumper of the #84 Toyota has a special phrase, "Drive over the moon", referencing how Johnson's daughters wish good luck to their dad before every race.
