The image is unique and it is clear that the image is a race car. The wind shields, tires, and features of the car, in general, are very distinct. Furthermore, looking at the front of the car, the Ford and Chevrolet symbols can be easily seen along with the word Camry, Toyota&#8217;s model. The Goodyear tire emblems can also be seen although not quite legible.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/ar1101-c18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/01\/Nascar.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-293 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/ar1101-c18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/01\/Nascar-300x229.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"369\" height=\"282\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/ar1101-c18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/01\/Nascar-300x229.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/ar1101-c18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/01\/Nascar.jpg 340w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 369px) 100vw, 369px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>An interesting characteristic from the artwork is that the average color seems to be red, at least pretty clearly at the nose of the car. This could be a result of many drivers racing in the color red, or drivers purposely not racing in the color green, which has historically been a color of bad luck in the sport.\u00a0The image below is of the sixteen driver cars that I used in my averaging image in which non of the schemes are clearly painted green.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/ar1101-c18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/01\/16-cars.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-296 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/ar1101-c18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/01\/16-cars-300x271.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/ar1101-c18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/01\/16-cars-300x271.png 300w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/ar1101-c18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/01\/16-cars-768x693.png 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/ar1101-c18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/01\/16-cars.png 997w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/ar1101-c18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/01\/16-cars.png\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Using the most common paint schemes of sixteen of the best Nascar drivers, I averaged the paints scheme packages that Nascar releases in order to create a new image and attempt to spot a theme.
