Just watching btcc and reminded me to post this. Why are 99% of race car interiors painted grey or anthracite. I noticed this on miglias, touring cars drag cars and even low clubman series. Any ideas or info?
Cheers

Didn't you tell me it was because of leakages? You can't see certain fluids as well on certain colours? Grey is the best for showing up and liquids.
