NASCAR Star Honors Hulk Hogan with Special Tribute

Ricky Stenhouse Jr.’s Car to Feature “HULKAMANIA Forever” Livery

NASCAR driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr. is set to pay a vibrant tribute to the late wrestling icon Hulk Hogan this weekend. His No. 47 Chevrolet will sport a special paint scheme and decals celebrating “The Hulkster” at the “Go Bowling at the Glen” Cup Series event.

A “Real American” Homage

The racing team, Hyak Motorsports, is bringing back their distinctive red, white, and blue “Real American Beer” paint job. This iconic livery serves as a direct nod to Hulk Hogan, who co-founded the beer brand.

Adding to the tribute, Stenhouse Jr.’s car will prominently feature a “HULKAMANIA Forever” decal. This eye-catching graphic will include an image of Hogan in the act of tearing off his signature shirt.

Legacy Continues on the Track

This isn’t the first time Stenhouse Jr. and Hyak Motorsports have collaborated with Real American Beer. They previously partnered for a race in June, shortly before Hogan‘s passing. This weekend’s tribute builds on that relationship.

Chad Bronstein, co-founder of Real American Beer, emphasized the continuation of Hogan‘s legacy. He stated,

“Hulk built Hulkamania and Real American Beer with strength, pride and resilience — for the fans, for their communities, for our country. Real American Beer is here to carry on Hulk’s legacy. We’re grateful to Hyak for helping us honor him and carry his commitment to his fans forward.”

Bronstein also highlighted Hogan‘s personal connection to racing, noting that the wrestling legend always considered it “core to the brand’s identity.”

Fans can witness Stenhouse Jr. and his Hulk Hogan-inspired car compete at 2 PM ET on USA. In 2023, NASCAR saw an average of 3.15 million viewers per race across Fox and NBC, indicating a significant audience for such tributes.
