I have a cake due on May 1st for a co-worker who wants it to be done in NASCAR. He also wants, if possible to have a pic of a racecar that has the number 27 on it.
My question is, does anyone know which driver has the number 27 on their car?
I can find 25, 26, 29, but not 27. icon_mad.gif
If there isn't one, then I will make up a car with our company logo instead.
I will either do it freehand (as long as I have a pic to copy from) or I will be doing FBCT.

I'm not positive but I don't think there is a car with the 27 on it. My dh is a nascar fan and he can't think of anyone with that #

We're HUGE Nascar fans, and we can't recall a #27. #17 is Matt Kenseth, he's a very popular driver. Maybe it's him? You've peaked my curiosity though...let us know if you find a #27. icon_smile.gif

There isn't a #27 in Nextel. There is in the other classes. Maybe you can ask which driver they wanted or is it the person's 27th b-day?

There is a number 27 car in the Nascar Busch series that Ward Burton drives. I found the number in the lists of drivers on the Nascar website but was unable to find a picture.

Thanks everyone!
Yes, the 27 is because that is how old he will be.
I'm at work right now, so I will have to look at these links at home.

Got a chance to look at the links. It looks like the last link is the most recent driver with the Kleenex car. If found some good pics that I can use to do a FBCT.
Thanks again!

PS I like to watch NASCAR on occasion when I have time to watch TV, that's why I needed the help.
