CONCORD, N.C. -- When the lights go on at Charlotte Motor Speedway for this year's NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race, Dale Earnhardt's Jr.'s Chevy will have a brand new look.

The No. 88 Mountain Dew Chevrolet SS will sport a patriotic paint scheme for the event with a $1 million payday.

As a race-winner in 2015, Earnhardt is already qualified for the All-Star Race, which will undergo a format change this year. Teammates Kasey Kahne and Jimmie Johnson are also eligible to participate, while Rookie of the Year contender Chase Elliott is vying for a shot to race via fan vote.

Take a look at the patriotic scheme Earnhardt will pilot in the All-Star Race below.

Already this month, Kasey Kahne has unveiled his All-Star ride, as well, and it's not the first scheme Earnhardt has revealed in May -- he also showcased his Kentucky paint scheme, which can be seen here.

The All-Star Race is scheduled for Saturday, May 21, at 7 p.m. ET on FS1, MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.
