🎉 Special Shoutout
The Trading Paints team would like to give a special nod to Brantley Roden who recently achieved an unprecedented feat: 100,000 favorites in the Showroom. Brantley and his paint shop Harpoon Design have brought countless paints to life for iRacing, most notably official Joe Gibbs Racing paints for NASCAR Cup Series and Xfinity Series cars. Congrats on your Showroom success, Brantley!
