Jimmy Mars - Picture below.
Anyone know what year his was taken or who's cars this was.
Jimmy Mars when he had the deal with Parker Stores to run some ASA stuff. They put this car together to run dirt when he wasn't running those. Can't remember the exact year but somewhere around the mid 90s. I believe the ASA deal lasted one year. The next year he changed back to 28, still black car. I think within 2-3 years Parker Stores was out of sport. They also sponsored Donny Schatz around the sametime.
I got a hero card of this car somewhere. I'll see if I can dig it out and answer this question.
He ran parker on yellow 28 too for awhile, i have the shirt somewhere, most the shirt glowed in the dark. always liked the front end of the of the car, had a tiger holding something in its mouth. Kinda intimidating.
This was around 2000/2001 I believe.
That's when the cars looked awesome. Not with all this wing d a m n sh$t.

Jimmy ran ARCA in 2000 for La Favre Racing out of Lakeville Mn.
He beat out Jamie Mc Murry and Travis Quapil for rookie of the year.
The only ASA Race he ran was at the Minnesota State Fair.
Mars was rookie of the year in 1999 in the RE/MAX series. He did beat out McMurray that year but Kvapil was not a rookie in 1999.

The 93 photo at lasalle where he was sporting the old style brewery sponsorship.
Man, hadn't seen one of those beers since college...........
I rolled a bunch of that stuff into convenient stores while working my way through school on a beer truck.
I like the Parker cars jimmy had...................thanks for sharing butch.
i have always been a big Jimmy Mars fan. This is one of his first cars
The white 28s of Mars are some of the plainest, drab looking LMs out there, nothing has changed in a dozen+ years. Wouldn't you think the sponsors would want something other then that same dull looking white with decals car? Most super stocks look better then that plain jane. I guess jimmy hasn't moved out of the 1990s yet!
That parker store car is sweet, as well as the hauler.
One thing about that white 28, you can instantly pick it out of the sea of color on the track. It used to be, that splash of color car stood out, not so much any more. I kind of like cars that stand out in the crowd. So many have the same shade of red, blue white or green now days, it's hard to pick them out at times.

To each his own. The design imprinted on the number catches the light and makes the car more visible anywhere on the track.
Just my opinion.
