So me and my family have been arguing about the color of the Tom Rolfe number 10. I just want to know what color is the car red or orange. I belive the car is like a tomato soup color red, but my brother argues that it is orange.

There are two different ways to make tomato soup. With water it is red. When you make it with milk it is a different color red which that may be it.

This is what I consider to be orange, the 10 is definitely not the same color as this

i can understand the failure to pin down the color of the rolfe #10 car. at the speeds it has been traveling lately it is hard to tell. good job to them. i guess my responce would be who cares wtf the color is, the flash bulbs in victory lane don't seem to!
to indy and beyond!!

it's definitely Flores. Red. If you were to put it under a blacklight it would glow a pinkish red. Flores. Orange is a lot brighter as you can see on the 5.

I stand corrected. I am a little color blind from all the LSD.

Rocket Red, Flo Red...... whatever...... it still looks orange to me (althought I will give it reddish orange). 
What's in a name anyway??? For example, light red or pale red doesn't look red at all...... it looks PINK!!! hahaha...  And there really should be more light and pale red racecars btw...
