Corey LaJoie brought one of NASCAR's
most unforgettable paint schemes to the 2019 Daytona 500, covering the front of his No. 32 Go Fas Racing Ford Mustang with a massive image of his own face. The design was created for an Old Spice sponsorship promoting the brand's dry shampoo, with LaJoie's eyes stretched across the hood, his beard covering the nose and the Mustang's grille positioned where his mouth would be. The scheme quickly became a major talking point throughout Daytona Speedweeks. Despite claims that LaJoie was the first NASCAR driver ever to put his own face on the hood, that distinction is difficult to substantiate-and other NASCAR cars had featured large human faces before 2019. What made LaJoie's version unusual was the extent of it: practically the entire front of the car became his face. The race itself proved eventful when a right-front tire failed early and badly damaged the bodywork, but the team repaired the car and LaJoie eventually brought it home 18th.
