It 's an early 1920"s ? racing superstition, also includes the number 13. Eating peanuts in the pits also is supposed to cause bloody doom. So of course there have been green cars and bikes with 13 peanuts painted on them. Green has been used a lot on teams. Tony Kanaan won the IRL championship in 04 driving a ... yes GREEN car. Harry Gant drove a green car (the #33 Skoal Bandit) in NASCAR to several wins.
