Yes, I do believe green is a bad luck color on a race car. My 69 GP dirt car was white when I got it from the wrecking yard. They painted the door jambs and did a good job of color changing it. I was so damn mad when I started tearing it down and found out it was originally a Verdoro green car. In 3 years I only won 1 race with that car and blew too many engines to count. Compared to my 67 GTO in my signature that I won 13 races within 2 years.

I've owned other green street cars that were also incredibly unlucky, I will never buy one any longer, no matter how good a deal it is. NO more green cars in my driveway.

I started to say "...it seemed to work out ok for Jimmy Clark..." and then I decided maybe not.
